Firstborn
Breaking Chains: Unveiling Life's Truths in Firstborn
Lyrics
If you have to break
If you must break something or end a relationship
Say it for a friend
Express your intentions or actions on behalf of someone else
If you have to speak
If you need to communicate
Tell it like a condemned man
Speak honestly, as if you were facing condemnation
If you have to rule
If you must govern or lead
Use an open hand
Lead with transparency and openness
If you have to die
If you have to face death
Kill the desires that you have
Suppress or overcome your personal desires
If you have to keep
If you need to retain something
Keep your mind at ease
Maintain peace of mind
If you have to sell
If you have to trade or exchange
Break it ‘til it’s free
Break free from constraints or limitations
For all the words I used to sing,
Reflecting on past expressions or songs
Empty promises I used to believe
Acknowledging past false assurances or commitments
For all the lies I used to feed,
Recognizing past deceptions
Empty promises I used to believe
Acknowledging past false assurances or commitments (repeated)
Pass over me
Repetition of "Pass over me," possibly seeking protection or forgiveness
Pass over me
-Pass over me
-While the first-born are stricken down
Reference to the biblical concept of the firstborn being stricken down, possibly symbolizing vulnerability or sacrifice
