K.B.W / KEPT BY THE WORD

Bloodline Holy

A song by K.B.W

BEHIND THE SONG

The story behind it.

I was blessed coming up, my father is the greatest father I know, my mother the same. I grew up covered. But covered don't mean chain-free. I still had things with my name on them that had to break, and I broke them at the Cross. And I watched people I love fight battles I never had to, bottles breaking before hearts could mend, pride taking men from their friends, pain getting passed down the bloodline like inheritance. All I could do was pray they'd be covered, that the cycle would stop before it reached their kids.

That's where this song came from. Some of these bars I lived. Some I carried to the Cross for people I love. All of it's real.

My grandma prayed over me, so did my parents, and I still hear those prayers, they're still steering me. That's the other inheritance. Keep the prayers. Break the chains. That's what I want my kids handed- the prayers, not the pain.

So if nobody in your bloodline ever broke theirs, you can be the first. For every son who never had a father, you got one now. For every daughter crying at night, heaven heard that sound. The chain breaks with whoever kneels first.

Generation free. That's the prophecy. In Christ.

The lyrics Written by K.B.W

Intro

I break every chain in my family name,
No more curses, no more pain,
Blood of the Lamb, that's the seal -
We ain't runnin' from nothin', we kneel and heal.

Verse 1

Grew up where them bottles break before hearts could mend,
Seen pride take a man, make him lose his friends.
Angels on the corner like, "What you finna do?"
Heard a voice in the dark I ain't never heard, true.
I ain't perfect, I'm just workin', that's purpose,
Had to kill off my flesh, that's service.
Laid my pain at the Cross, made peace in the dirt,
Now my kids gon' grow up knowin' they worth.

Chorus

We breakin' curses, bloodline holy (whoa!)
Chains on the floor, angels patrol me (yeah!)
Devil been lurkin', he can't control me (nah!)
washed in the blood, erased the old me (woo!)
Fathers stand tall, families rise up (rise up!)
Children covered, hands to the sky, bruh (hallelujah!)
Every Evil spirit - we cast that out,
This the kingdom anthem, this that God's house!

Verse 2

Walk different,
Got grace, I talk different, Spirit-led, can't block mission,
Whole team saved - that's God's business.
Pride tried to drown me, ego loud as sirens,
Flesh want war, but the Spirit stay silent,
Covered by the Blood, Holy Drip, that's alignment,
Put the Bible on my rhymes - that's timeless.
I can feel my angels near me (yeah...)
Grandma prayin' still steerin' me (uh huh)
Hands up even when weary,
God say, "I chose you clearly."
I can feel my angels near me (yeah...)
God say, "I chose you clearly."
Ain't no generational curse that can break my seed,
I bleed kingdom, that's royal breed,
Devil whisper lies, I said "Don't talk to me"
Watch faith move mountains - mustard seed.
I was lost in the smoke, in the cold, in the pain,
But He found me in the rain, baptized my shame,
Now my family gon' reign, walk in the flame,
Bloodline holy, we reclaim that name

Chorus

We breakin' curses, bloodline holy (whoa!)
Chains on the floor, angels patrol me (yeah!)
Devil been lurkin', he can't control me (nah!)
I'm washed in the blood, erase the old me (woo!)

Bridge

For every son who never had a father - you got one now.
For every daughter cryin' at night - heaven heard that sound.
We break the chains... we break.. We break the chains...

Chorus

We breakin' curses, bloodline holy (whoa!)
Chains on the floor, angels patrol me (yeah!)
Devil been lurkin', he can't control me (nah!)
I'm washed in the blood, you can't unholy me (woo!)

Outro

For every son who never had a father - you got one now.
For every daughter cryin' at night - heaven heard that sound.
We break the chains.. We break the silence....
The streets get saved when faith start grinding.
Bloodline holy, yeah...
Bloodline holy, yeah... (echo)
Generation free - that's the prophecy.
We break the chains... We break the chains..

THE STORY OF K.B.W

The pen came back.
The purpose changed.

I didn't write anything for over a decade. I had stepped away from music because I could no longer support how my words were being used.

“I Got the Ghost” started with a hook. That opened the door to writing again, this time with God as the foundation.

I'm a father. I'm still learning. The music comes from faith, struggle, growth, and conviction. Every song is an opportunity to point someone toward Christ.


ON THE RECORD / ABOUT THE MUSIC

Every lyric is written by me. Every story, idea, message, and meaning comes from me.

I use AI as part of the production process, including the vocals. Technology allowed me to return to music without becoming something I've never wanted to be.

The technology is part of the process.
The testimony is mine.
