Jason Eady Barabbas Lyrics


Barabbas by Jason Eady

[Verse 1]
I heard the judge ask the jury, "which one's the one to go?"
And I heard 'em say my name and why I'll never know
They unchained my feet, they unshackled my hands
And they let me go instead of that innocent man

[Chorus]
I've got a second chance
I'm gonna make it count
Make my way out west
Maybe head down south
Live a life of a pardoned man
Believing in things I don't understand

[Verse 2]
Well the guilt hangs twice as heavy when it's followed by a surprise
I'd surrendered, I was ready to give up and do my time
I did not know his name, did not know why he was there
But on this side of forgiveness we both have our cross to bear

[Chorus]
I've got a second chance
I'm gonna make it count
Make my way out west
Maybe head down south
Live a life of a pardoned man
Believing in things I don't understand

[Bridge]
Well I know that I am free cause they did not like his kind
But the man who preaches peace is always looking for a fight
And now I must go on, always knowin' that I'm bound
To try to make the best of this freedom I have found

[Chorus]
I've got a second chance
I'm gonna make it count
Make my way out west
Maybe head down south
Live a life of a pardoned man
Believing in things I don't understand
