I am Barabbas
They said this preacher man, comes from Galilee
Did somethin' so absurd that he deserved to serve my penalty
How can it be?
I know I've done my wrong 'cause doin' wrong is somethin' I do well
I know the court of law and somethin' like this doesn't ring a bell
How can it be?
And how can it be?
I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was a prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend
They made me sit right there as I watched them beat that preacher man
39 of all them lashes should have been on my own skin
How can it be?
How can it be? Oh
And I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was a prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend, ooh
I'll never understand the repercussions of my every sin
Is this love, or is this hatred flowing out from bitterness?
How can it be?
But he looked at me, and I said
I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was that prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas, oh, I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend
Did somethin' so absurd that he deserved to serve my penalty
How can it be?
I know I've done my wrong 'cause doin' wrong is somethin' I do well
I know the court of law and somethin' like this doesn't ring a bell
How can it be?
And how can it be?
I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was a prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend
They made me sit right there as I watched them beat that preacher man
39 of all them lashes should have been on my own skin
How can it be?
How can it be? Oh
And I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was a prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend, ooh
I'll never understand the repercussions of my every sin
Is this love, or is this hatred flowing out from bitterness?
How can it be?
But he looked at me, and I said
I am Barabbas, you took upon my cross
I was that prisoner 'til you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away from what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas, oh, I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend
