[Verse 1] There was always someone worse off than me. I kept a name or two spare. I had a job. I had a car. I had a reason ready, and every reason was fair. She'll be right. In Genesis, we met our nemesis. The serpent planted the seed. It wasn't a lie. It was a question. Did God really say. That's all it takes. I never drank in the morning. Then I did. I never drank alone. Then I did. I moved the line every time I got to it. Never once said I crossed it. What's left of us found our Exodus. You broke every chain. You helped me change. I was hurting. So much pain. What I was doing wasn't working. Constantly searching. I can never be the same. Well, at least I hope so. I pray in Jesus' name. Keep me tame. Away from the last word, the case, the blame. I blamed a lot of people. I was very good at it. I could make it anyone's fault but mine and make it sound the same. Should love my neighbour, not the last word. Should love my neighbour, not the last word. Growing up, church was the place to be. I sang every word. I meant maybe three. They thought I had it all. I saw to that. But I found my peace. You rescued me. I was unseen. Alone. I did that. Nobody did it to me. But You were next to me. You didn't move. I did. [Chorus] Reborn, I'm not who I used to be. Sins are washed, I've been set free. Lifted the veil, I can clearly see. Reborn, the old me is history. Reborn, I'm not who I used to be. Sins are washed, I've been set free. Lifted the veil, I can clearly see. Reborn, the old me is history. [Verse 2 - beat switch] He didn't take it off me. I put it down. Then I put it down again the next day. That's the whole miracle. I know how it sounds. I wanted the lightning. I got a phone number and a lift home. I wanted it lifted off me. I got told to make my bed and turn up. Swearing over nothing. It's always something. Gotta break the habit. See, I'm an addict. The thing I hate is the thing I do. Paul wrote that. Romans seven. He wasn't talking about drink. It fits. Sometimes you gotta ring the King. Know what I mean. And in between, I'm very meticulous as I read Leviticus. Have to pay the price through sacrifice. Seems ridiculous. But it's sinfulness. Forgive my ignorance. Our struggle is not against flesh and blood. It's principalities. Satan still has to ask permission. Simple formalities. Permission gets given. Ask Job. I may not understand the casualties. Or the generational curses on families. The absence of God is such a tragedy. Maybe I'm not meant to get Your strategies. The drinking stopped. The damage kept going. Nobody hands that back. I said sorry to people who didn't want to hear it. Said it anyway. That part wasn't for them. It's nation against nation in Revelation. Nothing changes. But I'm thankful for Your patience. Lord, I pray for protection. So much rejection. I've been projecting. Help me be more accepting. Stop the guessing. Stop questioning the lesson. I'm not cured. I'm current. Paid up till tonight. [Chorus] Reborn, I'm not who I used to be. Sins are washed, I've been set free. Lifted the veil, I can clearly see. Reborn, the old me is history. Reborn, I'm not who I used to be. Sins are washed, I've been set free. Lifted the veil, I can clearly see. Reborn, the old me is history. [Outro] Reborn. Today. Reborn. Today.
