[Verse 1]
Back when I was seventeen
Like every other girl, I used to have big dreams
But then I got introduced to some other things...
And suddenly the church girl I was originally
Became different
See the wrong things can call your name
I chose to answer when the Spirit said "walk away"
And now I live with circumstances that I can't erase
I just wish I could go back now to yesterday
'Cause it was different

[Pre-Chorus]
But there's not a hole too deep, naw
That God won't reach down and save me, me
See He cleaned me up and made me new
Said welcome back and now I'm standing here in front of you, hey!

[Chorus 1]
I'm different
Y'all I'm not the same
Ever since I met the Savior
See my life has changed
I must admit back in the day I did some crazy things
But that's my past
See my past has now passed away
Now I'm different
See I'm different
Y'all I'm not the same
Ever since I met King Jesus
Now my life has changed
I must admit back in the day I did some crazy things
But that's my past
See my past has now passed away
'Cause I'm different
[Verse 2]
I'm human, I'm gon' make mistakes
If and when I do please show me some grace
'Cause though it may be me who messed up today...
It may be your turn tomorrow
Then I bet you'll say
Something different
'Cause what goes around comes back around
Those you hurt on the way up
Will be there when you're down, down
I used to be the same way
But one Sunday morning something in my heart changed

[Chorus 1]
I'm different
Y'all I'm not the same
Ever since I met the Savior
See my life has changed
I must admit back in the day I did some crazy things
But that's my past
See my past has now passed away
Now I'm different
See I'm different
Y'all I'm not the same
Ever since I met King Jesus
Now my life has changed
I must admit back in the day I did some crazy things
But that's my past
See my past has now passed away
'Cause I'm different
[Bridge]
But there's not a hole too deep, naw
That God won't reach down and save me
See He cleaned me up and made me new
Said welcome back and now I'm standing here in front of you

[Chorus 2]
You can see it (I'm different)
In my walk (Different)
Others see it (Different)
In how I talk (How I'm different)
I can see it (Different)
In how I pray (Different)
I start to shed some tears (Different)
Each word I say (See I'm different)
They tell me (I'm different)
Like day and night (Different)
I used to go off quick (Different)
I'd cuss and fight (But now I'm different)
I'd blame everyone else (Different)
For my mistakes (I was different)
If someone got too close (Different)
I'd push away (But now I'm different)
But then Jesus (Different)
Came in my life (Different)
Saw my potential (Different)
And made it right (See I'm different)
Not just religion (Different)
But something real (Different)
It's what I know now (Different)
Not what I feel (Different)
You can't tell it (Different)
Like I can (Different)
Look at me (Different)
I'm born again (Different)
It wasn't easy (Different)
What I've been through (Different)
I'm stronger now (Different)
Now I can help you (Different)
You'll be different (Different)
[Outro]
Oh, yeah (Different)
I'm different (Different)
Different (Different)
Look at me (Different)
Oo-oo-oo-ooh (Different)
Different (Different)
Oh-oh-oh-ohh (Different)
