This would be my very first blog about music. When I just
accidentally heard and listened to this song. I was really like.. nothing, I
was really speechless. Since I was like waiting for an answer from God, then I
heard this out of nowhere. The lyrics accidentally hit me.
You'll never enjoy your life, living inside the box
You're so afraid of taking chances, how you gonna reach the
top?
Rules and regulations,force you to play it safe
Get rid of all the hesitation,it's time for you to seize the
day
Instead of just sit around and looking down on tomorrow
You gotta let your feet off the ground,the time is now
I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting,
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines Waiting outside the lines
Try to have no regrets even if it's just tonight
How you gonna walk ahead if you keep living blind
Stuck in my same position, you deserve so much more
There's a whole world around us, just waiting to be explored
Instead of just sit around and looking down on tomorrow
You gotta let your feet off the ground, the time is now,
just let it go
Dont wanna have to force you to smile
I'm here to help you notice the rainbow
Cause I know, What's in you is out there
I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting,
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines Waiting outside the lines
I'm trying to be patient (I'm trying to be patient)
the first step is the hardest (the hardest)
I know you can make it, go ahead and take it
I'm Waiting, waiting, just waiting I'm waiting
I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
You'll never enjoy your life
Living inside the box
You're so afraid of taking chances,
How you gonna reach the top?
If you will analyze the song, the
message is all about waiting for someone who’s just really afraid to take his
chances to enjoy his life. That’s why Greyson was like waiting for that person
to do something. He’s just waiting outside the box because he is actually
giving that person to do something and make his own decision for himself. It’s
a very nice lyrics right, isn’t it? Indeed!
In my own point of view, this is
how God used the song for the answer that I’m praying for. The song seems like
telling me that I should just pause for a while and stay outside the box. I was
there for someone all the time. I was like trying to interfere all the time in
his life. I was like trying to solve everything for him. Yes – which is not
good.
He is a man he has his own
decisions for his life. He needs to prove something in his life. I need to respect
it. I need to be still, to be patient. Even though it will be very hard for me,
I need to let him go. I need to wait.
I don’t know if this is what really
God wants for me; If He is really telling me to pause and wait. But I prayed.
So I will take this chance. This is now my chance to prove to myself that I can
really love. That not only in good times, but in bad times as well. Even if I
am just alone, I know I can do this.
Lord God, please help me. Please tell
me that this is the right thing to do. Tell me that this is really Your answer
to my prayers. Tell me that everything will be fine. Please Lord; tell me that
in time I’ll understand everything. Please Lord God. Please. You know what my
heart desires. I will do this, because I do believe that this is Your answer.
Please continue to guide me oh Lord. Guide him also oh Lord. Please guide him.
Guide us Lord God to find our way back home in each other arms. I am putting and
lifting everything up on Your hands oh Lord. Please. I trust in You. Thank you.
Amen.
