‘Caught in the half-life, I’m caught alone
Waking up to the sunrise, and the radio
Feels like I’m tired of, what’s holding me
Just praying today will be the day I go free
I wanna live like there’s no tomorrow
I wanna dance like no one’s around
I wanna sing like nobody’s listening
Before I lay my body down
I wanna give like I have plenty
I wanna love like I’m not afraid
I wanna be the man I was meant to be
I wanna be the way I was made
Made in Your likeness, made with Your hands
Made to discover who You are, and who I am
And All I’ve forgotten, help me to find
All that You’ve promised, let it be in my life
Hmmhmmhmm
The way I was made..
Hmmhmmhmm
I wanna be the way I was made
I wanna be the way I was made
