Never Be The Same
Tasha Cobbs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Today′s my day,
You changed my name,
I might limp away
But I'll never be the same.
I′ll never be the same,
Never be the same.

Ohhh, oh, ohhh!
Ohhh, oh, ohhh!





I'll never be the same,
Never be the same

This is beautiful.  It is a reminder of the morning after Jacob got up from wrestling with the Angel of the Lord all night.  He got up limping... his name was changed to Isreal.... never be the same.
