LYRICS: BECOME NEW BY TRU MANTRA

Intro:

Baba God oh, Baba God eh (2x)

Baba God, You don turn my life around, around (3x)

Baba God, You don turn my life around, around, around

Verse 1:

Awon t’won mo mi tele, won mo pe mo ti yi pada

Tori mo ni baba, moti di atunbi, Oluwa ti tun mi bi

And I don’t do those things no more, I don’t do those things no more

The new me, the new me, has come to stay, has come to stay, has come to stay oh

The old me, has passed away, has passed away oh

He turns a sinner into a saint

With God you will never faint

Baba, Father God oh

Dey no know me again oh

Baba Oh

Christ in me the hope of glory

Everything I do becomes HIS-STORY

In Him, I move and have my being

He took me, he cleansed and made me pure

He blessed, the next thing, I start to soar

I’m mounting and soaring like an eagle,

I’m soaring like an eagle, yeah, yeah, yeah

Verse 2:

I used to be one of the fellas

Fine boy on the outside, inside I was callous

Smooth talker, heart rough as callus

I dey quick vex, thin epidermis

Fair weather friend, you see to Paul I was Dermas

My life was sordid, living in a circus

I was a hedonist, you could call me reckless

No direction, I guess you could call me feckless, never relentless

Think of the guy who always wants to have the last word

I’m right, you’re wrong, chairman of the board

It’s all about me, I deserve every award

So vengeful, slicing deeper than a sword

But then one day when I didn’t even know it

I was in need, I was stunted, couldn’t grow it

Jesus took over my show, yes he stole it

Now we’re on the same boat, I let him row it

When I look back to all the blessings and the lessons,

Matter of fact, the Lord has truly brought me so far

I’m riding with him, but God is the chauffeur

We’re always winning, don’t believe the pollsters

Blessings way more than dollar bills

Blessings taller than the highest hills

Through God, I don’t have wings, but I fly

I know Grace and Mercy, homie so they follow me

Chorus:

Baba oh, You turn my life around

You turn my life around

You don turn my life around, around Baby God oh

You turn my life around

You don turn my life around, You don turn my life around, around Baba oh.
