Lyrics

You are the reason for life


The air inside my lungs


You’ve taken hold of my heart


And there’s no doubting


That Your love is Unexplainable phenomenal


And what Your grace has done Is nothing but a miracle


So tell me how could I ever Turn away from You


When You’ve always been The Way the Life and the Truth


CHORUS:


You’ve given me a new heart


True reality


I’m living for the One who set me free


You’ve given me Your vision


Better than a dream


You ain’t gotta wake me up


It’s not a fantasy


POST-CHORUS:


DA DA...


VERSE 2:


My friends keep saying I’ve changed


I’m acting different now


They wanna know what I know


They want the Truth


And so I told them


If you’re free on Friday


Come to youth with me


Leave your past right at the door


And you’ll never be alone


CHORUS 2:


You’ve given me a new heart


True reality


I’m living for the One who set me free


You’ve given me Your vision


Better than a dream


You ain’t gotta wake me up at all


You turned my life


Right upside down


You set my feet


On higher ground


Now I’ll never be the same


It’s not a phase


POST-CHORUS:


DA DA...


RAP:


I’ll never be the same


My heart’s forever changed


I know the old me is over


And buried in the grave


I don’t care what they say ‘cause


I’ll never be ashamed of


His love that saved me 180


The type that’s never fading


So now throw up your hands


If you know Him


Then go ahead and call up your friends


‘Cause we out here on a Friday


Where it began


And if you owe it all to Jesus


Go do your dance

Meaning & Inspiration

“Phenomena (DA DA)” describes Christian conversion as a complete change of heart, vision, and direction. The opening identifies Jesus with “the Way the Life and the Truth,” directly recalling His words in John’s Gospel. Grace is portrayed as miraculous, while freedom becomes the basis for a new reality rather than a temporary emotional experience.

The second verse carries that change into community. Friends notice a difference, and the singer responds by inviting them to encounter the truth that produced it. The rap develops the same idea through the image of the old self being buried and a life turned around. That language closely resembles the New Testament picture of dying to an old way of life and walking in newness. Celebration, witness, and transformation therefore belong together in the song: salvation changes personal identity, removes shame about Jesus, and creates an eagerness to bring others into Christian fellowship.
