[Intro] 

I once walked locked in step with everyone else, not knowing why…

(slight pause throughout Verse 1 sections)

[Verse 1] 
Growing up in the crowd with the same Sunday scene,
Same prayers, same smiles, same fear in between.
Voices up front said trust and obey,
Promised the light if I followed their way.


Until I found out the answers left too much in the gray,
Something inside me started pulling away.
One quiet morning I dropped the chain,
Stepped out the circle, reclaimed my freedom again


[Hook]  
No sheep, no shepherd — I walk my own way
No holy text teaching me acceptance of chains
Think for myself, that’s the only law I claim
Break from the flock, never play the same game

[Verse 2]  
I watched the world bend under man-made gods,
Souls surrendered to stories written by frauds.
They traded their reason for comfort and fear,
Handed their lives to a sky that stayed clear.
I felt the pity but I couldn’t stay blind,
The lie was too heavy, the truth too kind.
Morality isn’t some gift from above,
It lives in our blood, in what’s honest and just.

[Hook] 
No sheep, no shepherd — I walk my own way
No holy text teaching me acceptance of chains
Think for myself, that’s the only law I claim
Break from the flock, never play the same game

[Bridge]
I don’t chase the light because culture demands,
I don’t bow to customs or selfish commands.
I need the real truth, no matter the cost,
Good or bad, I will carry that cross.
Just human, natural, honest and bold.

[Final Hook]  
No sheep, no shepherd — I walk my own way
No holy text teaching me acceptance of chains
Think for myself, that’s the only law I claim
Break from the flock, never play the same game

[Outro] 
Freedom starts when you stop following.
Be your own shepherd.
