New Day
Jacob Swann Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a new dawn, a new day
Sun's come up and night's gone away
I've been praying for hours
just to see the break of day

Cause for five nights in a row
I've been tossing and turning all on my own
But now I think it's time I learn to let it go

My feet firmly planted fighting temptations
Been wondering if I'm ever gonna make it

And when I start to doubt I'm ever going to shake it off
I feel it rising in me, feel it rising in me I feel it rise within me
Making freedom ride within me

My feet are tapping, my hips are shaking
My hearts not breaking and if I'm not mistaken
There's a part of me thinking, I'm gonna be okay

My feet firmly planted fighting temptations
Been wondering if I'm ever gonna make it

And when I start to doubt I'm ever going to shake it off
I feel it rising in me, feel it rising in me I feel it rise within me
Making freedom ride within me

It's a new dawn, a new day
Sun's come up and night gone a away




It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
