[Verse 1]
Angel of death and mercy
Come take me from this cage
Cause these four walls and iron bars have been witness to the rage
Of a thousand broken hearts in chains
Like a cripple without his cane
A king without a crown
The passion that once consumed me has turned to ashes on the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
All that I've been given, I give it to you (I give it to you)
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth (to tell the truth)
[Chorus]
Somebody break these chains
Wrapped around this heart
I don't want you leaving
I'm begging for mercy
Honey break these chains
Oh heaven help me now
Trade the shackle for a crown
And I'm on my way, way down
[Verse 2]
Warm the ice that fills my veins, pumping till I'm numb
Lead me out of the darkness where it's so hard to escape from
[Pre-Chorus]
All that I've been given, I give it to you (I give it to you)
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth (to tell the truth)
[Chorus]
Somebody break these chains
Wrapped around this heart
I don't want you leaving
I'm begging for mercy
Honey break these chains
Oh heaven help me now
Trade the shackle for a crown
And I'm on my way, way down
[Bridge]
(Listen)
Bless my heart and bless my soul, you can set my ass on (fire)
Momma won't you call me a doctor cause my temperature is rising (higher and higher)
Dip me in that cold muddy water, I think I need to be (saved)
Unless someone breaks these chains
[Pre-Chorus]
All that I've been given, I give it to you
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth
[Chorus]
Somebody break these chains
Wrapped around this heart
I don't want you leaving
I'm begging for mercy
Honey break these chains
Oh heaven help me now
Trade the shackle for a crown
And I'm on my way
