"Rebel" lyrics

"Rebel"

Born a rebel
Always tryin' to swim upstream
Answering to no one
No one, but me

Who needs Jesus
When you're tryin' to be James Dean
I never saw a tough man turn his cheek
That seemed so weak

Look at me thinking I was free
When my hands were really tied
A ball and chain are easier to break
Than a man's foolish pride
I was stumbling down the road to Damascus
You were the truth that I couldn't see
But I heard you say come oh come
Be a rebel for me

Follow, follow me
Follow, follow me

You were a fighter
Love your only cause
You fought so hard
They put you on a cross

Can I believe it
That right up to the bitter end
You chose to lose your life so I could win
And start again

Look at me thinking I was free
When my hands were really tied
A ball and chain are easier to break
Than a man's foolish pride
I was stumbling down the road to Damascus
You were the truth that I couldn't see
I heard you say come oh come
Be a rebel for me

Follow, follow me
Follow, follow me

In this moment there's nothing left I want to hold
I'd give up all the world to gain my soul
So God I'm open, make me what you're looking for
Cause no kingdom of this earth compares with yours

And I'm yours
I am yours
I'm yours
Yeah I'm yours
God I'm yours
Oh I'm yours

Oh look at me now I'm finally free
I've got nothing left to hide
Oh if I'm a fool I'm a fool for you
And I give you all that pride
I was stumbling down the road to Damascus
But you knew who I could be
I heard you say come oh come
Be a rebel for me

Follow, Follow me
Follow, Follow me

Oh I heard you say come, oh come
Be a rebel for me
