New Man Rising by Brother Oliver Lyrics

Oh how many times will I make this mistake
Oh how many times will I make this mistake
Cause I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down
I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down
I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down

Cause I need to live
Instead of always second-guessing
And I need to give
Instead of always counting blessings

For I am standing where I lay
All my childhood is buried
I am standing where I lay
The lines are blurred and I am wary

Cause I need to live
Instead of always second-guessing
And I need to give
Instead of always counting blessings
For I have sold my only lot
For golden coins and silver tokens
All my actions are for naught
For I can’t fix what is not broken

Oh how many times will I make this mistake
Oh how many times will I make this mistake
Cause I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down
I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down
Oh I’m a new man rising
But I’m the same man laying back down
