Analysis of Free Me Now Or Let Me Just Die Instantly
As I weep, night becomes cold and long...
Darkness seems to cover every inch of hope
An injury of injustice is torturing my heart
Will the dawn of hope still coming, soon?
The sadness I felt, wound deepens fiercely
My courage weakens as I fearfully struggle
For in this battle I did receive a mortal blow
Is this another insult to my rotten injury?
Alas, I grieve not for losing the combat of men!
For a kind of defeat beyond power of mankind
But I wept for don't deserve the price I pay
My heart bleeds for the crime I have not sinned.
Yes, am mortally wounded so I crave for mercy
Heal my wounds and let me see the rising sun
Untangle my hands from unjustly punishment
I beg, free me now or let me just die instantly!
