Burden Down

de Jennifer Hudson

I'm a river, I keep running on
I'm a pillar you got used to leaning on
Underneath it, there's a person
I'm a woman and I'm hurting
'Cause I feel like I'm holding up the world

When I lay this burden down
Who's gonna take it up for me?
When you run me in the ground
That's the day you're gonna see
For all I've done, all alone
Just for a moment can I not be strong?
So how 'bout now, oh can I lay
This burden down?

I deliver each and every time
I'm a giver, I don't think about what's mine
You keep me asking, you keep taking
And that's no reciprocation
I shouldn't have to do this by myself

When I lay this burden down
Who's gonna take it up for me?
When you run me in the ground
That's the day you'll see
For all I've done, all alone
Just for a moment could I not be strong?
How 'bout now, can I lay
This burden down?

I'm a river, I keep running on
I'm a pillar, you're used to leaning on
Just this once, oh just this once

When I lay this burden down
Can you take it up for me?
When you run, when you run me in the ground
That's the day you will see
For all I've done, all alone
Just for a moment, please, could I not be strong?
Wish I know how, how to lay
This burden down
