Lyrics:

Whoo

It sure is hot out here

Ya know?

I don't mind thought

Just glad to be free

Know what I'm saying, uh

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance

I just want to praise you

(What ya want to do?)

I just want to praise you

(Yeah, yeah)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands

(Uh feel me?)

And I'm gonna praise you

(What ya gon do?)

I'm gonna praise you

In the corners of mind

I just can't seem to find a reason to believe

That I can break free

Cause you see I have been down for so long

Feel like the hope is gone

But as I lift my hands, I understand

That I should praise you through my circumstance

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance (I can dance)

I just want to praise you (I just want to praise you)

I just want to praise you (I just want to praise you)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands (I can lift my hands)

And I'm gonna praise you

I'm gonna praise you

Everything that could go wrong

All went wrong at one time

So much pressure fell on me

I thought I was gon' lose my mind

But I know you want to see

If I will hold on through these trials

But I need you to lift this load

Cause I can't take it no more

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance (so I can dance)

I just want to praise you (woo-hoo-hoo)

I just want to praise you (yeah)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands (woah, yeah)

And I'm gonna praise you (I'm gonna)

I'm gonna praise you (I'm gonna, I'm gonna praise you)

Been through the fire and the rain

Bound in every kind of way

But God has broken every chain

So let me go right now

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance (so I can dance)

I just want to praise you (woo-hoo-hoo)

I just want to praise you (I wanna praise you)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands (I can lift my hands)

And I'm gonna praise you (praise you)

I'm gonna praise you (praise you)

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance ('cause I just wanna)

I just want to praise you ('cause I just wanna)

I just want to praise you (yeah, yeah)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands (I can lift my hands)

And I'm gonna praise you (praise you)

I'm gonna praise you (c'mon (?) with me)

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance

(I just want to praise you) I just want to praise you

('Cause I'm free tonight) I just want to praise you (yes I'm free)

You broke the chains now I can lift my hands (I can lift my hands)

And I'm gonna praise you (yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'm gonna praise you (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Take them off, take them off

What ya gonna do, yeah

writing tip #3046:

the middle point in a story is the best place for a lengthy description of the parisian sewer system

[nicholassabalos]

To far horizons....

        ....with good friends....

                  ....to prevent a war....

SOUTH CHINA SEA (October 20, 2020) -- United States Navy Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS John S. McCain (DDG 56) sails in formation with JS Kirisame (DD 104) of the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force (at the middle of the formation), and HMAS Arunta (FFH 151) of the Royal Australian Navy (out in front)....

....while conducting multi-national integrated maritime security operations in this increasingly volatile region (<<CLICK for the sordid details.)....

                                      The Asian “hemisphere”

(Basically, they are training as allies to put up an increasingly united hemispheric front against Communist Chinese aggression, territorial seizure and subsequent militarization....posing a serious threat (existential to hundreds of millions of people in a dozen large nations) to one of the world’s foremost ocean trade routes -- over $3 Trillion dollars-worth each year.)

Friends, warriors, professionals....with a serious diplomatic and military mission....

                                Australia: HMAS Arunta (FFH 151)

                                      Japan: JS Kirisame (DD 104)

                       United States: USS John S. McCain (DDG 56)

The South China Sea....ancient cultures, vast populations, crowded waters....and, now, increasingly dangerous tension....
