[Intro]
(Soft, slow piano melody. Very gentle. Maybe a little cello in the background.)
[Verse 1]
(Soft, breathy vocals - emotional)
I’m drawing a circle around this home today
Washing the fear and the history away.
What ran through the bloodline runs no more
I’m closing the window, I’m locking the door.
The addiction, the anger, the secrets we kept
The tears that my mother and grandmother wept.
It stops at my feet, yeah, it stops at this line
I’m claiming a future that’s holy and kind.
[Chorus]
(Music swells slightly - harmonies come in)
Because grace flows stronger than generational sin
I’m letting the healing finally begin.
I am the curse breaker, the chain breaker too
But I only have strength when I’m leaning on You.
So I break every cycle by the power of the Cross
Counting the pain and the trauma as loss.
It ends with me.
Yeah, the new story starts with me.
[Verse 2]
(Drums kick in lightly - slow ballad tempo)
Like Nehemiah, I’m building the wall (Prayer 5)
With a sword in my hand, I’m standing up tall.
I confess the mistakes, but I won’t keep the shame
I’m rewriting history in Jesus' name.
And I speak to my children, to the sons that I love
I cover them now with the peace from above.
You are not bound, you are chosen and free (Prayer 8)
You won’t have to carry what’s heavy on me.
[Chorus]
(Full sound - Strings, Choir, Powerful vocals)
Because grace flows stronger than generational sin
I’m letting the healing finally begin.
I am the curse breaker, the chain breaker too
But I only have strength when I’m leaning on You.
So I break every cycle by the power of the Cross
Counting the pain and the trauma as loss.
It ends with me.
Yeah, the new story starts with me.
[Bridge]
(Music pulls back to just piano and vocals. Intimate.)
My genetics might load the gun... (Prayer 10)
But I choose the life for my youngest son.
My lifestyle pulls the trigger today...
So I choose to walk in a different way.
Faith, not fear.
Life, not death.
Blessing, not bondage, with every breath.
[Outro]
(Slow fade out)
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. (Prayer 9)
We will serve the Lord.
A new story begins today.
(Final piano chord)
