Lyrics

Do you feel the tensions rise

Questioning the feeling of rising tensions.

Do you know why we always fight

Questioning the reason behind constant conflict.

To be better, better than you

Expressing a desire to be better than others.

And you better than me

Acknowledging a desire for superiority in relationships.


I am not what you see, oh no

Denying external appearances and revealing inner identity.

Not much more than a slave I wish to be

Expressing a wish to be a humble servant.

I am not what you see

Reiterating the true self beyond external perceptions.

Not much more a slave I should be

Expressing a desire for humility despite potential for more.

Nothing more, a slave I will be

Committing to the idea of being nothing more than a servant.


How could I ever think to be more

Questioning the aspiration to be more than the Creator.

than the one who created me

Acknowledging the Creator's role in one's existence.

I watched him do all that he said, his words were

Observing the Creator's actions and teachings.

"Be a servant to all"

Quoting the Creator's instruction to be a servant to all.


I am not what you see, oh no

Reiterating the true self beyond external perceptions.

Not much more than a slave I wish to be

Expressing a wish to be a humble servant.

I am not what you see

Reiterating the true self beyond external perceptions.

Not much more a slave I should be

Expressing a desire for humility despite potential for more.

Nothing more, a slave I will be

Committing to the idea of being nothing more than a servant.


Only one deserves this exaltation

Highlighting that only one deserves exaltation.

Only one deserves this elevation

Emphasizing that only one deserves elevation.

But even He, He laid it down to serve on bended knee

Acknowledging the humility of the deserving one who served.


I am not what you see, oh no

Reiterating the true self beyond external perceptions.

Not much more than a slave I wish to be

Expressing a wish to be a humble servant.

I am not what you see

Reiterating the true self beyond external perceptions.

Not much more a slave I should be

Expressing a desire for humility despite potential for more.

Nothing more, a slave I will be

Committing to the idea of being nothing more than a servant.
