This is a song about the legacy of anger and fear that is sometimes handed down from father to son, and the intention to end that legacy and start a new one of patience and love
Lyrics
V.1 I grew up afraid of my daddy/And he was scared of his father, so I've heard/ Seems I come from a long line of angry men/So quick with a discouraging word/I could let it go on, like father--like son/But now I've got kids of my own. (And) CHORUS: It's all in my hands/It's up to me/It's time to start/A brand new legacy/I wanna look back some day/Knowing that while I was here/I did my part/To break the CHAIN OF FEAR V.2 Well, Granddaddy passed down his anger/From a life of frustration and pain/And Daddy didn't know any better/So he became one more link in the chain/I wanna turn all that darkness to patience and love/Let my kids feel how special they are CHORUS Br. I still carry those scars somewhere in my heart/But it's time to forgive and move on ('Cause) CHORUS Tag I'm doing my part/To break the CHAIN OF FEAR
