Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Reckless, running wide open
Hurting, searching for something
Rebel mind and selfish me
Led to broken hearts and broken dreams
But You don't give up on the hopeless
Now I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I was hollow I was lost before you
So being found Is something
I can get used to
I'm not who I used to be
Patient, You've always been patient
Chasing, You've always been chasing
Now who I was isn't who I am
And who I was I'll never be again
Since you made me a new creation
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I was hollow, I was lost before you
So being found Is something
I can get used to
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who
I'm not who
I'm not who I used to be
I was hollow, I was lost before you
So being Yours Is something
I can get used to
I'm not who I used to be
