- Lyrics to 'Burn For You' by TobyMac. I'm a brand new man, I'm a conscious man / I'm a man who's burnin' for you / The mistakes I've made have been chased away / To the bottom of the ocean blue.
- (Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted, you lift me up I feel revived again, I am alive again You got me lifted and lifted, you lift me. You got me higher than Kilimanjaro Got me believin' I can save the day I'm up and running like there ain't no tomorrow I'd rather burn for you than fade away I'd rather burn for you.
- TobyMac Watch baby, watch baby I got it like that Watch baby, watch baby So I got it like that, I got it like that Suggestions, questions people want to know Is there life after talk 'cause there's talk on the road Twistin' words that I've never even said To the ones that I trust or my boo in our bed Will he make it Man I bet he won't As they're runnin' through the minutes On their.

Toby Mac Burn For You Release Date
I'm a man who's burnin' for you
The mistakes I've made have been chased away to the bottom of the ocean blue
I'm a brand new man in a foreign land, I'm a man who's feelin' that fire
And it's all so clear when I'm standing here at the peak of my desire
So won't you move me like you used to
I want the world to know I burn for you
I feel revived again, I am alive again
(Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up
I feel revived again, I'm energized again
(Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up
Woke up in a sweat, those ghosts in my head
Had a grip, but I slipped on by
It's a whole new day as the darkness fades
And the sun's climbing in the sky
I concede, my love, that I need your love
I'm before you, a broken man
And it's only you, no substitutes who can renew this soul again
You got me higher than Kilimanjaro
Got me believin' I can 'save the day'
I'm up and running like their ain't no tomorrow
I'd rather burn for you than fade away
I'd rather burn for you than go my way
I'm a whole new guy with a whole new vibe
Changed inside, more flame in the fire
Can't stop, won't stop praying for desire
Like the bunny on the screen feel so energized
Old shell gone without a trace, new face
No more shortness of breath, new pace
Live life now without the taste of fear
Tobymac, Double Dutch now let the smoke clear
