People tell me I’m rebellious
Because I don’t bow down to them
Maybe if Eve had been rebellious
To the serpent that tempted her
We wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in

People tell me I don’t listen
When they tell me to listen to them
Maybe if Adam hadn’t listened
When Eve listened to the devil
We wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in

Jesus came to be the savior
And said, “Listen to my Father,
My Father is greater than I”
He was tempted by the same guy
But wouldn’t step in this mess we’re in

Jesus came to show the Father
To glorify His holy name
People tell me I am rebellious
When I chose to follow His lead
Pulling me out of this mess I’m in

Lifting you from the miry clay
Instead of standing on your Head
To be a little taller myself
Would make me look more like Jesus
Helping us out of the mess we’re in
