02. Let It Out Now

Opposite Way
by Leeland



 

It’s like you got to walk like him
Got to talk like her
Got to be like them
Everybody knows you follow the crowd
Or get singled out
But God says who you are
Not the world or movie stars
Don’t you know He holds the answers in His hands?

We’re stuck in a system
Is there anybody different?
Is anybody listening?
Is anybody listening?

Everyone has their own sound
Let it out now, let it out now
There’s nothing wrong with living loud
Let it out now, let it out now

I’m drawing the line between
Being them or being me
I’m not ashamed
To call myself one of Yours, Lord
But it’s a narrow path
I’ve got to break from the pack
No turning back
No turning back

Yes, God’s looking for a people
With a passion in their hearts
We’re God’s children
We need to shine bright
We need to shine bright

Everyone has their own sound
Don’t you know all God’s children have their sound?

Behind the Song:
"This song is really interesting how it ties directly into the concept of Opposite Way. We were spending the night in Nashville at Michael W. Smith’s house and I came up with the melody and first few lines while hanging out in the basement. I didn’t finish it that night, but wound up writing the rest on a flight to Nashville, just prior to going into the studio to record Opposite Way. I prayed for the Lord to give me some lyrics and it was really cool to look out over the clouds and get a different point of view on how small the world really is compared to being up so high. So basically the basis of the song is to not worry if you look different or even like a fool for following Jesus, because it shouldn’t matter what the world says compared to all of God’s amazing qualities. It’s one of the tunes that ties in with our goal of radically changing this generation for God." - Leeland Mooring (Leeland)
