I’ve been loading my burden through these years I’ve been loading it with my sins, bad thoughts and everything It’s getting heavy, oh my brother, it’s getting hard to endure But I'm trying to be strong, believe me I'm telling you Sometimes I feel my life is falling apart I’ve been living on my own way, now It’s time to pay the price Even a sunny day seems to be darker than the night And when the Sun goes down and the real darkness comes Oh Lord, I pray for You to help my soul Keep me away from the trigger, don’t let me grab that gun That old rope seems to ask me to hang it on a tree Things come all at the same time, oh is hard to believe My head and my heart are full of bad feelings Every time I think those bad things, Lord I pray more and more I am trying to be good and to keep You in my heart Time has come when I must carry this burden So I have to be tough and deserve, deserve the salvation I’ve been loading my burden through these years I’ve been loading it with my sins, bad thoughts and everything It’s getting heavy, oh my brother, It’s getting hard to endure But I'm trying to be strong, believe me I'm telling you
