Breaking Chains: A Journey of Redemption and Unity
Lyrics
Running up a mountain with chains tied to your legs
Struggling with burdensome challenges, facing difficulties represented by chains.
What has this chip on your shoulder profited you
Questioning the benefits or gains from carrying a grudge or resentment.
The past is the past and there's no changing it
Acknowledging the unchangeable nature of the past, emphasizing acceptance.
When that moment comes you loose all control
When confronted with a crucial moment, losing the ability to control the situation.
This grudge in now taking its toll
The accumulated resentment is now affecting and harming the individual.
We need to find some middle ground
Advocating for finding a compromise or common understanding.
We need forgive and restore
Emphasizing the need for forgiveness and the restoration of relationships.
You never need to forget who you are
Encouraging self-identity preservation even in the process of forgiveness.
We need restoration in this world
Calling for a collective effort to restore harmony in the world.
Divided we're conquered
Highlighting the vulnerability when divided, urging unity.
But together we can do so much more
Expressing the potential for greater achievements when working together.
Learn from the past not live in it
Encouraging learning from the past instead of dwelling on it.
Dwelling on things you can't change won't help you grow
Rejecting the idea that focusing on unchangeable things contributes to personal growth.
The bitterness inside is breaking down your bones
Addressing the destructive impact of internal bitterness on one's well-being.
Life is better lived without chains
Advocating for a life free from restrictive and burdensome constraints.
Bonds are better built without spite
Asserting that strong connections are built more effectively without malice.
Forgiveness holds a heavyweight
Recognizing the significant impact of forgiveness in relieving burdens.
I know it's not easy doing what's right
Acknowledging the difficulty but emphasizing the importance of choosing the right path.
