Anthem Lights covers Jon Bellion's 'Stupid Deep,' a reflective pop song that explores the human longing for unconditional love and the realization that the love we seek is freely available. The lyrics question the pursuit of earning love through achievements and possessions, pointing to a deep inner void that only love can fill. While not explicitly Christian, the themes of grace, acceptance, and the inadequacy of works resonate with gospel messages about God's free love and salvation.

What if who I hoped to be was always me?
And the love I fought to feel was always free?
What if all the things I've done, yeah
Were just attempts at earning love? Yeah
'Cause the hole inside my heart is stupid deep
Stupid deep
What if where I've tried to go was always here?
And the path I've tried to cut was always clear?
Why has life become a plan, yeah
To put some money in my hand?
When the love I really need is stupid cheap
Stupid cheap
What if who I hoped to be was always me?
And the love I fought to feel was always free?
What if all the things I've done
Were just attempts at earning love? Yeah
'Cause the hole inside my heart is stupid deep
What if who I hoped to be was always me?
And the love I fought to feel was always free?
What if all the things I've done
Were just attempts at earning love?
'Cause the hole inside my heart is stupid deep
Oh, stupid deep
Stupid deep
