Natural Born Sinner
In This Moment Lyrics

Listen closely, to what I'm about to say
Pay attention because I'm about to speak some truth.

I think I've heard just about enough of your hypocritical ways
I'm sick of your double standards and insincerity.

Don't try to stop me now
I won't be silenced or held back.

Don't you make a sound
I won't tolerate any interference or opposition.

You've built yourself up oh so high just to tear me down
You try to elevate your own position by degrading and belittling me.

I'm so tired of you telling me How to live and what I should not be
I'm exhausted by your attempts to control and manipulate me into conforming to your standards.

And I'm so tired of you telling me What to do and what I don't believe
I'm fed up with your attempts to dictate my actions and my beliefs.

And after all that you're telling me Why is it hate and only you can see
Despite your efforts to mold me, your perspective is clouded by your hatred and judgment.

And I'm so sick of you telling me that I will burn I will not be free
I'm disgusted by your attempts to threaten and intimidate me with the prospect of eternal damnation.

This is my song My red crusade What will I say? What will I do?
This song belongs to me and represents my passionate struggle for freedom and autonomy. I will do whatever it takes to achieve it.

Maybe it's fear that leads your rage Maybe you're me and I am you
Perhaps your anger towards me is rooted in your own insecurities and uncertainties. In reality, we are fundamentally similar.

So go ahead and point your fingers Tell me who to love is it him or her?
Don't hesitate to condemn me for my choices, but understand that who I love is my own decision, whether it be a man or a woman.

When will you see this is who I am S-i-n-n-e-r Natural born sinner
Recognize that I am a sinner by nature, and that it is an essential part of who I am.

I'm not gonna change Stay out of my way
I refuse to transform myself for your sake, so don't impede my progress.

I don't need you to understand That I'm already saved
I don't require your comprehension or validation. In my own way, I have already attained salvation.

Maybe you should stop, question all your pain Can you look me in my eyes and say we're not the same.
Perhaps you should take the time to examine your own emotional wounds and biases. Once you do, you'll realize that we're more alike than different.

Did you really think by pushing me I would become what you want me to be?
Do you genuinely believe that bullying me will turn me into a carbon copy of yourself?

And did you really think by hurting me I'd open up and just hand you the key?
Do you genuinely believe that inflicting harm on me would cause me to become vulnerable and dependent on you?

I know you're scared and don't understand This is my life, this is who I am
I recognize that your fear and lack of comprehension may be driving your behavior, but ultimately, I will live my life as my true self.

What I do know is come judgement day Before the lord can you say the same?
What I do know is that when it's time for me to face judgement for my actions, I'll be able to confront the lord confidently. Will you be able to say the same?

So go ahead and point your fingers I'll love who I want, whether him or her
If you insist on singling me out and casting blame, know that it won't prevent me from loving whomever I choose, be it a man or a woman.

When will you see that God made me a S-i-n-n-e-r Natural born sinner
When will you come to terms with the fact that as a human being, I am inherently flawed and sinful?
