Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now I close my eyes
I wonder if I'll ever see again
I am scared but you are here
And you think you I'm someone
I am so alive
Make me real
I am so alive
So
Watch me rise
Now I rise above
I wonder if I'll ever touch the sun
I'm up here looking down
Glad you think I'm someone
I am so alive
Make me real
Give me one more reason
I am so alive
So
Told me
You showed me
Now I think I'm someone else
Will you stay if I behave
Will I believe
Will I believe if you made me see myself
Will I behave
Will I behave
I don't understand anymore
Will I believe if you made me someone else
Will I behave
If i don't behave will you go and cry to mother
I am so alive
Make me real
Give me one more reason
I am so alive
So
Told me
You showed me
Now I think I'm someone else
The lyrics of Lifer's song Born Again is an introspective narrative of a person who is going through some sort of spiritual and emotional transformation. The first verse starts with the line, "Watch me rise", which signifies the beginning of this transformation. The person is hoping for a positive outcome, but at the same time, he/she is scared about what's to come. However, the person is not alone as he/she believes that there is someone (possibly God) who is watching over him/her. The line "And you think you I'm someone" indicates that the person is unsure of his/her worth or identity, but someone else (most likely God) has faith in him/her.
In the second verse, the person has already risen above and is now looking down at everything. The line "Glad you think I'm someone" indicates that the person has gained some sort of recognition or validation, possibly because of his/her transformation. However, the person is still searching for a reason to keep going. The lines "Make me real, Give me one more reason" indicate the person is still not completely satisfied and needs more to sustain him/her.
The chorus is an affirmation of the person's newfound vigor and enthusiasm. The line "I am so alive" is repeated, indicating the person's enthusiasm and appreciation for life. The next two lines, "Told me, You showed me," suggest that someone (possibly God) has played a significant role in this transformation. The last part of the chorus, "Now I think I'm someone else," suggests that the person has undergone a significant change.
Overall, the lyrics of Born Again is a tale of transformation and self-discovery. The person undergoes a spiritual and emotional journey and ultimately finds himself/herself in a new form. It's a perfect reminder that with faith, one can overcome adversity and find a brighter, better new day.
