Changed Forever - Intellectual

[Intro: Nirva Ready]

(Ooh-woah, woah)

[Verse 1: tobyMac]

I'd heard the name, but never seen Your face

Been touched before, but never Your embrace

Had a soul to lose and the world to gain

But then You whispered my name

And I heard the truth, but never from Your lips

Bought the lies of many counterfeits

Dreamed my dreams but they were never in color

And I searched for You in many others

[Pre-Chorus: tobyMac]

I was down for the count...

[Chorus: tobyMac & Nirva Ready]

Then I saw Your face

Just a glimpse of Your face and my whole world changed

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

Changed forever now

Then I saw Your face

One glimpse of Your face, it's a whole new game

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

Yours forever now

[Post-Chorus: NIrva Ready]

(Ooh-woah, woah)

[Verse 2: tobyMac]

If I could reach the stars, I could touch the sky

And if I spread my wings, I could almost fly

I had everything paper could buy

I was lost in my disguise

And if I played my role, they would feel my style

If I bought the night, they would buy my smile

I've been runnin' this game for a million miles

Believin' my own lies

[Pre-Chorus: tobyMac]

I was down, I was out

[Chorus: tobyMac & Nirva Ready]

Then I saw Your face

Just a glimpse of Your face and my whole world changed

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

Changed forever now

Then I saw Your face

One glimpse of Your face, it's a whole new game

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

Yours forever now

[Bridge: tobyMac, Nirva Ready, Both]

Then I saw Your face...

(Ms. Ready, get me outta here)

I was blinded by my selfish dreams (Uh-huh)

Everything ain't what it seems

From inside to out, there ain't no doubt

I been changed (I been changed, y'all)

Hey-hey, nothing short of satisfaction

Your love caused a change reaction

I can tell You this much (tell You this much), I felt Your touch

And I'm changed (I been changed)

When I was down for the count, Your love surrounded me

Blink of an eye, I saw my destiny, yeah

Changed, rearranged, 'cause I couldn't maintain

The heart it took to even stay in the game

One look in Your eyes, even I realized

A fellow like me'd been put down to size

To be built up in a better way, Your way

Yaweh ain't about to fade

Bombastic, ain't no way to mask it

I saw Your face, and my old ways blasted

[Chorus: tobyMac & Nirva Ready]

Then I saw Your face

Just a glimpse of Your face and my whole world changed

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

I'm Yours forever now

Then I saw Your face

One glimpse of Your face, it's a whole new game

Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever

I'm Yours forever now

Then I saw Your face

Just a glimpse of Your face and my whole world changed

Then I saw Your face

One glimpse of Your face, it's a whole new game

[Outro: tobyMac & Nirva Ready]

(I'm Yours forever now) (Ooh-woah, woah)

(Y-Yours forever now) (Ooh-woah, woah)

(I'm Yours forever now) (Ooh-woah)
