Looking back upon my life I'm very thankful
that your arm is not too short to rescue and deliver me. (Exodus 6:6)
Take my hand and lead me out and through.
Through the waters of the Red Sea,
through the blood & the death of the enemy.(Exodus 13:18;15:4-6)
While a new foe rages and holds up an image of a man that I used to be.
Throwing up my insides out on my knees before the throne.
Staring in the porcelain dome that flushes away
all the high of last night's waste.
And I will never forget the bad taste
that was left inside my mouth of when she left when I cried, when I died,
no I ain't going back again. (Philippians 3:13-14)
Chorus:
Once I wasted, now I've tasted a better life
more than I've ever known (Psalm 34:8)
Once I hated, now embraced it a better life
more than I've known. (Isaiah 53:3, Ecclesiastes 3:5)
And I'm glad that the past is gone,
that I'm never gonna be alone (Hebrews 13:5)
cause I found true love (1 John 4:8)
even though that my number three finger is empty.
And there's nothing I'd give in exchange
for a love that strange from when she left when I cried when I died,
no I ain't going back again.
