Breaking Chains

[Verse]
Got mud on my boots and tears on my face
Walked through the fire just to find my place
Men with their rules trying to lock me in a cage
But a storm’s been stirring yeah I’m done with this rage
[Chorus]
Breaking chains won't be tied no more
Set the flames to the life I bore
Heart’s been bruised but it still can roar
Ain’t a plaything for love’s old war
[Verse 2]
Lost my mother to the winds of fate
Lost my soul to a man who’d dictate
Took my laughter buried it deep in the soil
Now I’m digging it out through blood and toil
[Chorus]
Breaking chains won't be tied no more
Set the flames to the life I bore
Heart’s been bruised but it still can roar
Ain’t a plaything for love’s old war
[Bridge]
I asked the sky why it steals my song
Why love twists good hearts then proves them wrong
But tonight the moon says don’t ask
Just fight
So I’ll howl through the dark ‘til my soul feels light
[Verse 3]
Don’t need your pity don’t need your crown
Won’t let your games drag me further down
Life took its toll but it’s lit my spark
This fire in my chest will burn the dark
