Caught in the middle of this dysfunction
It's your sad reality, it's your messed up family tree
And all you're left with all these questions
Are you gonna be like your father was and his father was?
Do you have to carry what they've handed down?
No, this is not your legacy, this is not your destiny
Yesterday does not define you
No, this is not your legacy, this is not your meant to be
I can break the chains that bind you
I have a dream for you, it's better than where you've been
It's bigger than your imagination
You're gonna find real love and you're gonna hold your kids
You'll change the course of generations
Oh, this is not your legacy, this is not your destiny
Yesterday does not define you
No, this is not your legacy, this is not your meant to be
I can break the chains that bind you
'Cause you're my child, you're my chosen
You are loved, you are loved
And I will restore all that was broken
You are loved, you are loved
And just like the seasons change winter into spring
You're bringing new life to your family tree now
Yes, you are, you are
Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, this will be your legacy, this will be your destiny
Yesterday did not define you
Oh, this will be your legacy, this will be your meant to be
I can break the chains that bind you
And just like the seasons change, winter into spring
You're bringing new life to your family tree now
You didn't ask for this, nobody ever would Caught in the middle of this dysfunction It's your sad reality, it's your messed up family tree And all you're left with all these questions Are you gonna be like your father was and his father was? Do you have to carry what they've handed down?
