Breaking the Chain

I grew up learning how to make less feel like enough,

Learned early that the world could sometimes get rough,

(yeah, yeah)

I carried things I never knew how to explain,

Turned every silent memory into fuel for the flame.

I could've let the past become the person I was,

Could've blamed every scar for the man I'd become,

But I looked at those memories and made a decision,

My history can explain me,

but it doesn't own my vision.

I came from hard days,

but I'm building soft mornings,

Turning old warnings into brand-new beginnings,

I won't let yesterday

write tomorrow's page, I'm using everything I survived to create a different

age. (break the chain!)

The past gave me scars,

But the future gets my heart,

I can't change where I started,

But I can choose where I depart.

I don't need to forget what happened to move ahead,

I just need to stop letting old voices live inside my head,

(no more, no more)

Now every step forward feels like breaking a chain,

I'm not running from the past,

I'm transforming the pain.

(I'm transforming the pain!)

(transforming the pain...) (yeah...)
