about
How often do I/we deceive ourselves through patterns of escapism, take on significant insecurities, drown ourselves under the pressures of society, get chained to things both seen and unseen? This song is a prayerful plea on behalf of wrestling through those struggles. 🤼🙏 A thematic and musical Journey. I was excited to experiment with different styles for this one whilst keeping it riff heavy! Whereas 'Hypocrites' hints at a progressive nature to our music, 'Break These Chains' hopefully affirms this. 🎶
lyrics
We are drowning under
Under the waters
Of the pressures of life
Deceived by the one
Who will bound us unto death
Can we really be free?
So break these chains
So break these chains
So take these chains
So break these chains
That bind us
We are searching for something
That brings so much more to life than this
Lies fill our souls
As Society hoodwinks you and me
Oh rise and see!
So break these chains
So break these chains
So take these chains
So break these chains
That bind us
Bind Us
Bind Us
Cause our hearts to wake up,
Let us see the structures of Babylon.
We're building our own prisons
By chasing the desires of Babylon.
Trying to the find the answers
By drowning all our sorrows, Babylon.
Disguising this as freedom
They're chains that must be broken away from Babylon.
Oh please set us,
Set us free.
Free!
So break these chains
So break these chains
So take these chains
So break these chains
That bind us
Bind Us
Bind Us
