[Verse 1]
Told what to watch, told what to play,
Told what to love, told what to say.
Every move measured, every choice condemned,
I feared their rules more than the God I defend.
Songs forbidden, friends forbidden too,
I bent and I broke to obey what they knew.
I tried to be perfect, I tried to be pure,
But their judgment made me sick, and my heart unsure.
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted to please You, I wanted to fight,
But I tore myself apart every night.
Now I see the truth, now I understand,
Your love isn’t held in the hands of man.
[Chorus]
I break the chains, I scream Your name,
No more fear, no more blame.
I’m done with rules that never heal,
Your mercy is real, Your love is steel.
I’m rising up, I’m finally free,
Your love is louder than their litany.
[Verse 2]
Never touch that, never be here,
I was trapped in warnings I couldn’t clear.
I collected their guilt, I swallowed their lies,
I hid from Your truth behind their eyes.
But I’m done hiding, I’m done obeying fear,
I hear Your voice, and I know You’re near.
I’ll walk my path, I’ll choose my fight,
Your light is my shield, Your truth my might.
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted to please You, I wanted to fight,
But I tore myself apart every night.
Now I see the truth, now I understand,
Your love isn’t held in the hands of man.
[Chorus]
I break the chains, I scream Your name,
No more fear, no more blame.
I’m done with rules that never heal,
Your mercy is real, Your love is steel.
I’m rising up, I’m finally free,
Your love is louder than their litany.
[Bridge]
Burn the rules, crush the walls,
I won’t kneel to human calls.
You are God, and You are mine,
I’m alive, I’m alive in Your light.
[Chorus ]
I break the chains, I scream Your name,
No more fear, no more blame.
I’m done with rules that never heal,
Your mercy is real, Your love is steel.
I’m rising up, I’m finally free,
Your love is louder than their litany.
[Outro]
I won’t hide, I won’t obey,
Your truth guides me every day.
No chains, no lies, just the fire of Your face,
I walk in freedom, redeemed by grace.
