Let me be-Let me


Let me be- Let me be only who I am Let me be what I wish to be Let me be something other than nature's ink on my skin Let me speak Let me speak loud and clear Let me speak in your town halls and churches Let me speak my words from the mountaintops for all to hear Let me live Let me live free from fear Let me live just as everyone else Let me live with my head held high and my face to the sun I ask only that you Let me be
