Lyrics
VERSE 1
Out of the dark, into the light
I clench my fists, open my eyes
There’s something new on my skin
I cry out, and breathe it in
CHORUS 1
I am born, I am born, I // Don’t know but I will learn why
And I’m gonna make with my time // Something beautiful
VERSE 2
Out of nothing, something grows
I can’t recall but somehow I know
I was there and the world was spinning
I was someone new, beginning
PRE-CHORUS 2
How did this come to be // Mystery breathing through me?
Why have I been so blessed // Mystery pounding in my chest?
CHORUS 2 (2x)
I am born, I am born, I // Don’t know but I will learn why
And I’m gonna make with my time // Something beautiful
VERSE 3
Now I keep turning ‘round the sun
My heart is learning to be a human
I get to live this day just once
The past is over, the future never comes
PRE-CHORUS 3
My god, this joy and sadness! // Hold on and the moment passes
And again I’ve just begun // Won’t learn the end ‘til I am done
CHORUS 3 (2x)
I am born, I am born, I // Don’t know but I will learn why
And I’m gonna make with my time // Something beautiful
CHORUS 4 (2x)
I am born, I am born, I // Don’t know but I will learn why
And I’m gonna make with my time // Something beautiful
