Kinda Wild
Song Meaning
A string of questions drives the song, and each one imagines God doing something personal: "Are you singing," "Are you dancing," "Are you laughing." Even quiet gets a place in the list ("Is it just a whisper / Cause that tends to be your style") before the lyric admits that the love in play "can be kinda wild."
The refrain turns that wonder into a prayer: "come and change my focus." The singer confesses not noticing "where you're going near enough" and asks to see what God has been "doing over us." A later verse offers a gentler answer to restlessness: "Maybe all you're asking / Is just to slow it down and breathe," since the thing being chased unseen has been "right beside me" all along.
The bridge breaks loose with "Now the roof's off" and a call "outta my mind," as noticing grows into something bigger than expectation. Scripture lines up with a God who sings over his people (Zephaniah 3:17), who came to Elijah in a gentle whisper (1 Kings 19:12), and who tells his people to be still (Psalm 46:10).
Are you singing
Cause I love your melodies
Are you dancing
Wrapping your arms around me
Are you laughing
Cause I like to make you smile
Is it just a whisper
Cause that tends to be your style
Are you screaming
This love with you it can be kinda wild
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
Are you moving
Like the wind blows through the trees
Maybe all you're asking
Is just to slow it down and breathe
I've been chasing a something I can't see
When I keep waiting, all this time you've been here right beside me
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
Are you calling me outta my mind
Outta my mind
Now the roof's off
We expand like desire, deep and we're wired
Are you calling me outta my mind
Outta my mind
Your love, Your love is
Kinda wild
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
So come and change my focus
I don't notice where you're going near enough
Come and change my focus
Help us know what you've been doing over us
