[Verse 1]

Twenty-four oceans

Twenty-four skies

Twenty-four failures

And twenty-four tries

Twenty-four finds me

In twenty-fourth place

With twenty-four dropouts

At the end of the day

[Pre-Chorus]

Life is not what I thought it was

Twenty-four hours ago

Still, I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms with You"

And I'm not who I thought I was

Twenty-four hours ago

Still, I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms with You"

[Verse 2]

There's twenty-four reasons

To admit that I'm wrong

With all my excuses

Still twenty-four strong

[Bridge]

But see I'm not copping out

I'm not copping out

I'm not copping out

When You're raising the dead in me

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, I am the second man

Oh, oh, I am the second man now

Oh, I am the second man now

And You're raising these-

[Verse 3]

Twenty-four voices

With twenty-four hearts

With all of my symphonies in twenty-four parts

But I want to be one today

Centered and true

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You

You're raising the dead in me

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, I am the second man

Oh, oh, I am the second man now

Oh, I am the second man now

And You're raising the dead in me, yeah, yeah

[Verse 4]

I want to see miracles

To see the world change

I wrestled the angel

For more than a name

For more than a feeling

For more than a cause

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms with You"

And You're raising the dead in me

[Verse 3]

And you're raising these twenty-four voices

With twenty-four hearts

And all of my symphonies in twenty-four parts

[Outro]

Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago

Still, I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms"

I'm not copping out

I'm not copping out

I'm not copping out
