Way I Am Lyrics

I've always been one for thinking
So I never had much to believe in
Yes, I can't understand
How there's anything out there

Yes, I heard all your stories
Of love and hope and then glory
But, I keep punching holes in everything I hear

Can't be sure
That that's the way I am
Anymore
That that's the way I am
Anymore

Here is beautiful struggle
Between who I am and I was once
Yes, there's things I can feel
That I can't conceive

See world full of beauty
And I feel his hope running through me
But I can't reconcile
With the doubts in me
With the doubts in me

Can't be sure
That's just the way I am
Anymore
That's just the way I am
Anymore

Can't be sure
That's the way I am
Anymore
I can't be sure
That's just the way I am
Anymore
That's just the way I am
Anymore
That's just the way I am
Anymore
That's just the way I am
Anymore

Cover art for Way I Am lyrics by Ben Rector

I think this song is about Ben's personal history of not believing in Jesus. Then suddenly believing. I remember myself, being in that same situation. Where I sorta felt like I was to "smart" and had my own brain, for me to believe in God, let alone the idea of Jesus Christ, Him rising and being my savior.

This song is a HUGE testimony. It's so hard to explain not believe then suddenly believing. Its just the way that he is now, it's the work of Jesus. Nothing you can actually explain, its just the way he is now. Can't explain it. That's Christ. It's Christ that brings you to Him, nothing you can do or someone else can do. To this day I don't know how I became a Christ follower.

I hated those religious folk that wanted to judge me. And turn me into something I'm not. I love the verses he sings, because it sorta highlights a life in Christ. Your heart won't be right and you will fall HARD if its all about religious ways. But if its all about hope, love, His glory. That's all you need.
