I was born with no chance at life
Dead before I took my first breath
I was born with no family ties
Alone before I knew where I lived
They called me broken
Worthless and a shame
They called me wasted
Used up and chained
But you made me your child
And you called me your own
Now they can call me
But they've got to
Use my new name
My new name
My new name
I walked miles
And couldn't find a home
There was no place that I belonged
I walked for days and days
And weeks and years
Couldn't find a melody for my song
They called me broken
Worthless and a shame
They called me wasted
Used up and chained
But you made me your child
And you called me your own
Now they can call me
But they've got to
Use my new name
My new name
My new name
I don't need money
I don't need fame
I don't need the love
That this world can bring
I don't need this prison
I don't need these chains
I needed a father
And child is my new name
They called me broken
Worthless and a shame
They called me wasted
Used up and chained
But you made me your child
And you called me your own
Now they can call me
But they've got to
Use my new name
My new name
My new name
My new name
My new name
My new name
My new name
My new name
