Well nobody?s perfect

I struggle everyday

In this fight to change my wicked ways

It ain?t easy

Still payin? dues

Sometimes the light

Leaves me shakin? in my boots

It?s a hard, heavy load

But I will rise above

Cause I?m not of this world

No I am not who I was

Cause I?m not of this world

As slave to my cravings

Is what I used to be

Played with fire

Didn?t mean a thing to me

Then I discovered

My soul is not my own

Glory be the day

When I come home

Cause I am not alone

But I will rise above

Cause I?m not of this world

No I am not who I was

Cause I?m not of this world

I?m hear livin? it

Gonna be dyin? in it

But before I go

I want you to know

When it?s my time for leavin?

How sweet it?s gonna be

You can come along if you believe

Oh if you believe

That I will rise above (rise above)

Cause I?m not of this world (this world)

I?m not who I was (yeah)

Cause I?m not of this world

No, I?m not of this world

This world
