Big Daddy Weave's song contrasts outward religious pretense with genuine inner transformation. It critiques those who appear righteous but hide pride and lies, likening them to Pharisees. The lyrics affirm that true freedom comes through receiving the Son, referencing the biblical idea that whom the Son sets free is free indeed. The song encourages authenticity and a new heart rather than mere external conformity.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Hear no evil, see no evil
Speak no evil
On the outside
Full of pride, full of lies
So well they hide
On the inside
They'll never be
All that they seem
They live the life of a Pharisee
Not perfect on the surface
So far to go
On the outside
But a true heart
And a new start is what lives on the inside
For whom the Son has set free
He is free
Free indeed
Receive the Son who makes us free
Then you will be free indeed
Receive the Son who makes us free
Then you will be free
