**Title: “No More Sour Grapes”**
**Verse 1**
For many years the old men cried,
“We bear the pain our fathers hide,”
Chains were carried through the blood,
Like rivers flowing from the flood.
Children walked beneath the weight,
Of broken vows and hands of hate,
Stories written long before,
Echoed behind every door.
**Pre-Chorus**
But the wind of change is calling,
And the ancient walls are falling,
Mercy speaks a brand-new day,
Truth is rising on the way.
**Chorus**
No more sour grapes on my tongue,
No more battles passed from blood,
Every soul will stand alone,
Every seed is fully grown.
The past won’t hold tomorrow down,
Grace will lift me from the ground,
No more living in the blame,
Everybody bears their name.
**Verse 2**
A father’s fear, a mother’s pain,
Cannot forever rule my way,
Though the scars may mark the skin,
The choice begins and ends within.
Every heart must choose its road,
Every hand must bear its load,
Justice walks with steady feet,
Truth and mercy finally meet.
**Bridge**
I hear freedom in the distance,
Breaking chains of old resistance,
What was buried in the years,
Will not rule beyond the tears.
The Judge of Heaven sees us clear,
Every hope and every fear,
And His wisdom lights the flame,
Calling each of us by name.
**Final Chorus**
No more sour grapes in my soul,
No more shadows taking hold,
I will rise and I will stand,
Life and death within my hands.
The old story ends today,
I will walk a different way,
For the truth has made me see,
The choice belongs to me.
**Outro**
No more chains from yesterday,
No more debts I have to pay,
Every heart beneath the sun,
Answers for the things it’s done.
