Is that time already? Six13 is back to kick off the new year with Starting Over, a brand new original tune all about one of the major themes of the High Holidays. This time of year we’re all looking backward on the missteps of this year, looking inward with aspirations to be a better person than we were the year before, and looking forward to a new beginning and a clean slate.

With Rosh Hashanah, we’re all Starting Over.

Six13 may have gained lots attention for its Jewish pop parodies lately, but they’ve also got quite a catalog of original Jewish music to their credit. They’re extremely proud to help spread the true spirit of Rosh Hashanah with their latest composition.

This song and all Six13 songs are completely a cappella — created with nothing but the human voice.

LYRICS:

It’s Rosh Hashanah
How the time keeps ticking on
Just another
Year of moments come and gone
We’re that much older
But are we wiser, have our hearts
Grown that much colder
Have we ceased to do our part

‘Cause I’m starting over
I’m looking back
‘Cause I’ve done things that I’m not proud of
In this year we’re coming out of
Now’s the time for introspection
Time to forge a new direction
Decide who I want to be
A brand new year, a brand new me
‘Cause I’m starting over

Blow the shofar
Sound the call for us to change
This year is over
We’ll renew ourselves again
The gates are open
I’ll repent and swallow pride
And I’m hoping
It’s enough to be inscribed

I’m starting over
I’m looking back
‘Cause I’ve done things that I’m not proud of
In this year we’re coming out of
Now’s the time for introspection
Time to forge a new direction
Decide who I want to be
A brand new year, a brand new me

I’m starting over
I’m moving past
I’m putting all my sins behind me
The errors of old ways won’t find me
Let’s put our whole selves in this
Let’s return and seek forgiveness
Be what it means to be a Jew
And my soul will be brand new
I’m starting over
