Wounded by Ryan George Banner Lyrics

[Ryan George Verse]:
Our nation has a dark side
Sense we can not hide
We delighten our greatness
Chant slogans filled with pride
But the ugly things don't go away
Ignore they fester and decay

They arrived in ships from far-off
And fell upon their knees
Giving thanks for the freedom
Their land o' blessed be
Moving westward every bounty
A heady time indeed
Conquering both land and sky, from sea to shining sea!

[Whisperhawk / Mike Gross Versе]:
They arrived in ships from far-off
Cut us to our knees
Destroyеd our homes and freedom
The land o' cursed be
Moving west over our people
A scary time indeed
Scaring virgin land and sky, from sea to shining sea
[Chorus]
Wounded, wounded
On my knees
I'm in pain, I can't breathe
Wounded, wounded
On my knees
Aching for equality

[Yahosh Bonner Verse]:
They arrived in ships from far-off
To us they run, they please
Chained us, be us, killed us
Milking honey from me
They say we [?]
Stop [crying?] are you free!
But things are far from equal
From sea to shining sea!

[Chorus]
Wounded, wounded (Oh yeah!)
On my knees (Wounded!)
I'm in pain, I can't breathe (I'm in pain, Yeah!)
Wounded, wounded
On my knees (My knees!)
Aching for equality (Equality, yeah!)
Let us show humility
Prey for our humanity
Let us lift, let us share
Let us heal!
Extent the hand in deep
Show the kindness
We each need
Sending all but no more source
No more wounded peace

[Outro Chorus]
Healing, healing
On my knees
Ease the pain, and let us breathe
Heal us, raise us
From our knees
Unite us in equality
Healing, healing
Off our knees
No more pain, we can breathe!
Healing, healing
Off our knees
United in equality
