Chosen

I cried onto the Lord with my voice With my voice onto the Lord did I make my supplications I poured out my complaints before him I shewed before my troubles When my soul was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path In the way wherein I walked have they privately laid a snare for me The full has never been told yet The truth has never been spoken of It's like I've never been homе Still I've never been homеless Give thanks to Jah I was never alone What if I was hopeless? Would they really ignore me? What if I was broken or torment? Would they really bring more stress? What if I've never been so blessed? What would I really become? What would life really be like if I never had no friends? Would I still be me or someone else? Is it really just like a hero haffi die before everyone notice? Have I really got chosen? Wo-oah Am I really that potent? Is it really my pride? Have my tears gone dry? And me just can't show them no more? Am I really that broken? Wo-oah Have I really got chosen? They don't really know, (they don't know) They don't really, they don't really know They don't really know (they don't know) But who feels it, knows it Torturing emotions approaching Burning inside like coalskill But one thing fi sure, I'll hold still What if I had no strength? Would they tell me I love you again? What if I had nothing but myself? Would it have been said in the first place? Tell me how can you know who's real or fake when people pretend everyday? Tell me who will be there for you in times when nobody can help? Is it really just like a hero haffi die before everyone notice? Have I really got chosen? Wo-oah Am I really that potent? Is it really my pride? Have my tears gone dry? And me just can't show them no more? Am I really that broken? Wo-oah Have I really got chosen? They don't really know, (they don't know) They don't really, they don't really know They don't really know (they don't know) But who feels it, knows it Torturing emotions approaching Burning inside like coalskill But one thing fi sure, I'll hold still All when dem mek di closest enemy don't win Legendary portfolio, me teleporting Tell mi weh dem deh before mi leggo di porcelain Them lef' mi broken, a better dat did do mi nose bridge All when a Covid, dem couldn't hold mi Mi success a keep yuh posted, deh pon di road still Mi a push a current weh current, JPS couldn't hold the voltage And mi fortress nuh susceptible to forces, mi hold mi own still Is it really just like a hero haffi die before everyone notice?
