Skillet's 'Rebirthing Now' is a Christian rock song about spiritual renewal and transformation. The lyrics describe a person feeling paralyzed and lifeless, crying out for God's presence. They experience a rebirth as God's presence fills them, bringing new life and oxygen. The song emphasizes breaking free from a suffocating state and living for love and God. It touches on themes of waiting, fear, and the desire to feel alive again. The imagery of shedding skin and breathing for the first time suggests a profound spiritual awakening and surrender to God's power.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I lie here paralytic

Inside this soul

Screaming for you 'til my throat is numb


I wanna break out

I need a way out

I don't believe that it's gotta be this way

The worst is the waiting

In this womb I'm suffocating


Feel your presence filling up my lungs with oxygen

I take you in

I've died


Rebirthing now

I wanna live for love wanna live for you and me

(Breathe) for the first time now

I come alive somehow

Rebirthing now

I wanna live my life wanna give you everything

Breathe for the first time now

I come alive somehow


Right now

Right now


I lie here lifeless

In this cocoon

Shedding my skin cause I'm ready to


I wanna break out

I found a way out

I don't believe that it's gotta be this way

The worst is the waiting

In this womb I'm suffocating


Feel your presence filling up my lungs with oxygen

I take you in

I've died


Rebirthing now

I wanna live for love wanna live for you and me

(Breathe) for the first time now

I come alive somehow

Rebirthing now

I wanna live my life wanna give you everything

Breathe for the first time now

I come alive somehow

(I come alive somehow)


Tell me when I'm gonna live again

Tell me when I'm gonna breathe you in

Tell me when I'm gonna feel inside

Tell me when I'm gonna feel alive


Tell me when I'm gonna live again

Tell me when this fear will end

Tell me when I'm gonna feel inside

Tell me when I'll feel alive


Rebirthing now

I wanna live for love wanna live for you and me

(Breathe) for the first time now

I come alive somehow

Rebirthing now

I wanna live my life wanna give you everything

Breathe for the first time now

I come alive somehow

(I come alive somehow)


Right now

I come alive somehow

Right now

I come alive somehow
