Let Us Love

let us love by needtobreathe Bm G we were born to embrace , not accept it A G we were given nothing more , and so we kept it Bm G as the colors of our boots keep fading A G we live a life that we hate without saying Bm G who would listen to the cries of a poor man A G we’ve never done nothing how could we be something Bm G every heart has an hour of existence A G every breath brings a chance for redemption Em D if somehow we could wake up let us love D like we were children make us feel G like we’re still living Bm A G in a world i know that’s burning to the ground give us time D to beat the system make us find G what we’ve been missing Bm A G in a world i know that’s burning to the ground Bm G in the crowd of the dead and disappointed A G we’re ashamed , giving up on what we wanted Bm G take a chance on a long shot this time A G aren’t we all just at least worth another try Bm G i’m a king in the land of abuses A G undermined by the promise of excuses Bm G who’s to win if we know that it’s not fair A G who would fight when it seems that no one cares Em D if somehow we could wake up let us love D like we were children make us feel G like we’re still living Bm A G in a world i know that’s burning to the ground give us time D to beat the system make us find G what we’ve been missing Bm A G in a world i know that’s burning to the ground Bm A it’s hard to stay here but where do we go G i know we can’t feel it anymore Bm A it’s true that time is wearing us down G we fall further and further away D A waiting for always to change ( clapping ) let us love like we were children make us feel like we’re still living in a world i know that’s burning to the ground G leave your hurting on the road behind you A D let the wind go with you ’til the morning comes G yeah , your sorrow , no it can’t save you A D it won’t answer for what you’ve done
