Share This Burden - David Leonard

Sometimes I’m too tired to pray

'Cause it feels like nothing ever changes

But I never really say it

It’s so hard to say it

The more I try to pretend

The more the weight caves in

And I can’t stop it

No, I can’t stop

My soul from crying out

My soul keeps crying out

Oh Lord, and I’m screaming inside

Somebody take the load off of my shoulders

It’s too heavy, I can’t hold it no more, no more

I wasn’t meant to carry this mountain

Or bury it down in my soul

I was meant to share this burden

I gotta fall down to rise

If I wanna live, I gotta die

I gotta know the darkness to show the light

And my soul keeps crying out

My soul keeps crying out

Oh no, and I’m screaming inside

Somebody take a load offa my shoulders

It’s too heavy, I can’t hold it no more, no more

I wasn’t meant to carry this mountain

Or bury it down in my soul

Yeah, I was meant to share this burden

Brothers, sisters

We gotta share this burden, we gotta share this burden

Brothers, sisters

We gotta share this burden, we gotta share this burden

So brothers, sisters

We gotta share this burden, we gotta share this burden

Somebody take the load off of my shoulders

It’s too heavy, I can’t hold it no more, no more

I wasn’t meant to carry this mountain

Or bury it down in my soul

Yeah, I was meant to share this burden

Oh, oh

Yeah, I was meant to share this burden
