Lyrics

Rock N Roll,the ancient cry
fed the life that I was leading

Addiction had its way
I had to say
I had fell down and
I was bleeding

Tried to lift my ways
out of the haze
to a place I could believe in
Choose life

I was told of a place
such a beautiful face
a smile of forgivness

I'll arise
So nearby
from the smell of the death
I was bleeding in

Its up to me
I have to see
into the eyes of the deciever
but tonight
I choose life

Chorus 1
And then I heard a voice say
He said son I'd like to take your life this way
I'll be with you
every step of the way
Be strong
Reborn

Its a nasty dig
what i like to kiss
with the rhyme and reason

It's greatest crime
It lies to be defined
And I found that special perch
I was lying in

I could see to be free
It comes from the father
So tonight
I choose life

Chorus 2
And then I heard my mother say
She said, son your a special man
So he wants to take you away
So stand up straight
and never bow down
Be strong
Reborn

Chorus 3
And then I heard grandpa say
Keep Jesus Christ in your heart and always pray
A warrior for you
I'll be strong
Be warned
by hearing this song
