06. Unafraid

Genesis
by Joy Williams



 

They say I'm too young to really understand
They say I'm too old to be where I am
They say just fit in, you'll be just fine
But I can't buy the lie
The voices of the crowd always try to keep me down
But I've had enough and now I'm stepping out
Unafraid
‘Cause I know who You are
Unafraid
Staring life in the face
‘Cause I know who I am is who You made
So here I stand
Unafraid
You say I'm Your own, an orphan found
You say I am home, those lies are lonely now
You're proud of me, and I am safe
And my fears begin to fade
Your voice is drowning everybody out
I'm gonna live my life (unashamed)
Living my life (untamed)
For the sake of Your Name
I'm living my life, I'm living my life

Behind the Song:
'I wrote because I was feeling misunderstood and I wasn’t really understanding myself either. My friends are in college, and in a more corporate environment. I started worrying, “What if this music thing doesn’t work out? Who knows how long it will last?” I just started worrying about what would happen if I didn’t make the right decisions or pick the perfect scenario. So this is the acknowledgement that I need to live my life without fear and reservation. Oswald Chambers said in order to do the will of God you have to understand that the will of God is already in you because He is inside of you. So this song is just saying that I’m not afraid to stand in front of Christ and say, “This is who I am. I’m not perfect, but this is me.”' - Joy Williams
