Born Again

I called home from a greyhound station with the coin I flipped to pick a destination
said dad, please understand.
I'm not running or hiding from anything
I just gotta go and find my wings
and in this small town I don't think I can.
Yeah, it took leaving everything I'd ever known behind
for me to see the world for the very first time

Yeah, Sometimes it takes a fall,
a leap of faith, risk it all,
a goodbye so you can begin
A second chance,
a brand new start,
Find your way out of the dark,
against all odds believe you can be,
born again.

I knew a girl who walked the streets every night,
sundown to sunlight,
to feed the habits that had taken control
Until a sidewalk preacher caught her ear
with a message she needed to hear
And to this day she knows it saved her soul.
Yeah that road she was on sure looked like a dead end,
but that all changed when she put her trust in him.

Yeah, Sometimes it takes a fall,
a leap of faith, risk it all,
a goodbye so you can begin
A second chance,
a brand new start,
find your way out of the dark,
against all odds believe you can be,
born again.

Well my best friends mom had been sick for years.
We all knew the end was near
so he packed a bag and headed back home.
He was on the next flight out of town
when he got a call that knocked him down
It was his mamma she said son I can't hold on
she said I love you boy and I'm gonna be alright.
I'm gonna get my wings and I'm gonna take flight.
Yes I am

Sometimes it takes a fall,
a leap of faith, risk it all,
a goodbye so you can begin
A second chance,
a brand new start,
find your way out of the dark,
against all odds, believe you can be,
born again.

A second chance,
a brand new start,
find your way out of the dark,
against all odds, believe you can be,
born again

A second chance,
a brand new start,
find your way out of the dark,
all you gotta do is believe in him
to be born again.

Born again.
Born again.
