Born Again
Lyrics:
[English]
I found myself looking into the mirror
Knew I wasn't who I wanted to be
I was living like the way that I wanted
But my eyes reminded me, I'm not free
Believed a lie so everything that I know
Says I got to go, tired of going solo
But I'm never gonna go there again
This is what it is
This is who I am
This is where I finally take my stand
I didn't wanna fall
But I don't have to crawl
I met the One with two scarred hands
Giving Him the best of everything that's left of
The life inside this man
I've been born again (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I see you walking like you're living in fear
Having trouble even looking at me
Wishin' they would give you more than words
Sick of people telling how it should be (how it should be)
What's your download, where'd you get your info?
You saw that I'm show, now you're in the in load
Gonna tell you what I believe, oh
This is what it is
This is who I am
This is where I finally take my stand
I didn't wanna fall
But I don't have to crawl
I met the One with two scarred hands
Giving Him the best of everything that's left of
The life inside this man
I've been born again (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
We are the ones they call by name
(I'm never gonna look back)
Let go, let go the guilt, the shame
(Said, "I'm never gonna look back")
This is who I am
This is what it is
This is who I am
This is where I finally take my stand
I didn't wanna fall
But I don't have to crawl
I met the One with two scarred hands
Giving Him the best of everything that's left of
The life inside this man
I've been born again
This is what it is
This is who I am (am)
I didn't wanna fall
But I don't have to crawl (crawl)
I met the One with two scarred hands
Giving Him the best of everything that's left of
The life inside this man
I've been born again
(Never gonna look back)
I've been born again
(Never gonna look back)
