What’s love without a heart that it can teach
What’s war without a cause
What’s hope without humanity in need
What’s a win without a loss
I know, I know we fight against gravity
But gravity’s no enemy
Yes, I know, I know we fight against gravity
But gravity is what we need
It’s pulling Heaven down, down, down
It’s pulling Heaven down, down, down
How could it be the gravity that holds me to the ground
Is pulling Heaven down, down, down
What’s free if there’s no chains to be found
What’s death without a cost
What’s truth if we keep it out of reach
Who’s Christ without a cross
I know, I know we fight against gravity
But gravity’s no enemy
No, I know, I know we fight against gravity
But gravity is what we need
Gravity found us a Savior
Put Him on Earth so He could save us
No love, no force is greater
Heaven meets Earth, that’s the gravity of love
Pulling Heaven down so look up there’s a change in the wind
A revolution is about to begin, love wins
Yeah, I’m talking about a holy visitation
For God to come and visit, this nation’s patiently waiting
For Him to move like He said He would move
Ready for God to do anything that He wants to
The time is now to pull, if you ask me, I’m not afraid of gravity
It’s pulling Heaven down

Behind the Song:“Gravity” is one that I wrote by myself. The idea was inspired by our band pastor. We were talking about how gravity has always been looked at as something negative and, for the most part, in symbolic terms gravity is negative. But as believers, it’s in those negative situations---those places where we feel most restricted and held down---that we actually have the most access to see the glory of God work on our behalf. Adversity is an opportunity to experience God’s glory, and I wanted to somehow communicate that in a song. --Tauren
