[Verse 1] Forgiveness is not something To ever take too lightly, It takes a heart of courage To release the need to fight. [Pre-Chorus] Put down the weight you carried, Let the old walls fall away, There is strength in choosing mercy, There is freedom in today. [Chorus] It sets the bitterness free That’s been buried deep within, Giving your heart room to breathe And letting peace begin. Open up the door you guarded, Let a kinder morning start, When you loosen every battle, You make room inside your heart. [Verse 2] Forgiveness sees the damage That a grudge can leave behind, Choosing to release the hurt And free the heart and mind. [Pre-Chorus] Not denying what was broken, Not pretending wrong was right, Just refusing pain to own you, Just stepping toward the light. [Chorus] It sets the bitterness free That’s been buried deep within, Giving your heart room to breathe And letting peace begin. Open up the door you guarded, Let a kinder morning start, When you loosen every battle, You make room inside your heart. [Bridge] You can remember without chains, You can heal without regret, You can honor what you suffered Without living in it yet. Take a breath and choose tomorrow, Leave the ashes where they are, Mercy is not weakness growing— It is strength that travels far. [Final Chorus] It sets the bitterness free That’s been buried deep within, Giving your heart room to breathe And letting peace begin. Open up the door you guarded, Let a kinder morning start, When you loosen every battle, You make room inside your heart. [Outro] Make room inside your heart, Let forgiveness be your start.
