For What I'm not

by morrowpa

Capture the past I'll let it live Very loud, asking for forgiveness Ignite a passion for history Let you beat me like I beat you Ruptured hearted still bleed I can't bandage all that come Give us a chance to fight with you Halt the comments my people make Take back what I've said from what I've learned Stop and fight for what I'm not
