Brother, help me please.
Brother, I need to feel. I need my soul to weep.
I need to cry for my fellow man. I need to feel his pain.
I need to understand why we are so filled with fear.
I need to speak out for the downtrodden.
I need to love more.
I need to put my fears aside.
Brother, help me.
Brother, lift me up.
I need to see things clearly.
I need this fear in my soul to go away.
Brother, reach in and take this fear.
Brother, throw it away.
Brother, please, please help me.
I need to love.
I need to be loved.
I need to belong.
Brother, take me in.
Brother, I love you.

My name is Rambler … I think I’ll travel … I think I’ll let her be…
