about

This tune is the title track.

How many people will give anything just to be free of their daily or lifelong problems and afflictions? We cry from within "Help". Sometimes help comes too late. Sometimes we are even scared of telling someone what we are going through. You see us walk the streets silent, sometimes pretending we are fine, well dressed, make up in perfect order but inside, we are crying. If only we could say the word "Help", we could have won some of our battles. Agree to be helped please.

lyrics

BREAK THESE CHAINS – Henry Gaye


Someone tell me how to find my own way
When I can’t even see
Feels like my eyes have been shut like a door
With no lock or a key
So many times I tried to break free but fell right back
Feeling weak from so much pain
I feel my hands behind me held fast by chains of sorrow
To free myself I tried in vain

Break these chains
Help me please
Set me free
Let me breath

Do you hear me as I call out to you?
Do you hear my desperate cry?
Sometimes I feel no one hears me at all
Lose my voice the more I try
Eyes open wide at night tormented wretched life
Crown of thorns leave my head
Where will I find the courage to ask someone for mercy
From this fear and what I dread

Break these chains
Help me please
Set me free
Let me breath

Wall of stone I break you down
Prison cage becomes my crown
Suicide wish is like the sun
Little birds and butterflies
I see a rainbow
Look at the colors oh
See no need to go down
I raise my voice and shout

Break these chains
Help me please
Set me free
Let me breath
