Jeckyl and Hyde

Disciple opens with an unusually blunt self-diagnosis — "my nature's sinful from my birth," a mind "filled with evil thoughts" despite everything they've been taught. There's no softening the confession before the song gets to its actual subject.

Their chorus names the contradiction directly in the title's borrowed image — one nature that "keeps going back to my ways," caught in "pride and selfishness," and another that opens up and lets God's love in. Disciple doesn't resolve the tension neatly; the final verse admits words still "lash out and kill" even after the confession.

Paul describes that exact split in Romans 7:15-19 — doing the very thing he hates, unable to consistently do the good he wants — and in Galatians 2:20 he describes a self that's been crucified with Christ, replaced by a new life lived by faith. Disciple's title captures both halves honestly: the old nature hasn't disappeared, but "the other side" is real too, and growing.
