Born into an unbalanced world
Blinded by the scars of time and power
Chained to conform to who knows what
Thinking me yet falling prey to standards I ought to meet
Looking in the mirror to find society instead of me
The burden to carry and be, to seek and see
Through the eyes of customs and culture
Feeling enslaved and often forgetting to breathe
I pray thee therefore
Save me from this heat
Blinded by the scars of time and power
Chained to conform to who knows what
Thinking me yet falling prey to standards I ought to meet
Looking in the mirror to find society instead of me
The burden to carry and be, to seek and see
Through the eyes of customs and culture
Feeling enslaved and often forgetting to breathe
I pray thee therefore
Save me from this heat
