Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  was born  to potential and limitless grace
 with the flashing of light
 it was gone  when the smoke  cleared
cast  in ash  and powder
 I was raised  to obey and respect but
 at the edge of the lake
 was dead  and disruption
 when the water  splashed across  my back
 it burned
 for the dead there's no comfort in fate
 and the line is faintly defined
 and the purpose of living is life
I  wasn't chosen, I didn't choose the path
 my heart's not built to hold his love
 REPEAT FOR THE REST OF THE SONG
 I was schooled
 in a place of tradition
 but something was missing
 in faces of classmates
 eyes declared too blue, too deep
 in the church will lead us to worship
 fighting to pull it apart
 with my nails
 as they chewed solid unpaid misery???
 from the bloods took the truth from the lies
 and the lie they took greatly to god
 when the lies after death is a prize
 I wanna reach out
 I wanna shake your hand
 your war is noble and divine
