Free
Plumb's song "Free" is a personal confession about breaking free from a judgmental and unloving religious mindset. The lyrics describe a transformation from self-righteousness to genuine love and acceptance, acknowledging past mistakes and asking for forgiveness. The song emphasizes making room for everyone, listening more, and loving unconditionally. It reflects a shift from hate disguised as truth to true freedom found in kindness and grace. The message aligns with Christian themes of repentance, forgiveness, and the liberating power of God's love.
I want a blank slate
A new start
I'm wide awake, my eyes
Are open now
I didn't see it
Til I saw you
I see differently
I see the truth
Oh, Oh
It was selfish
It was a sin
To preach grace and peace
And forgiveness
Without kindness
Without love
Only "we are right"
And "they are wrong"
I'm finally free
I'm finally free
I'm finally free
From the hate disguised as truth
I'm not one of you
I'm not one of you
I wanna make a difference
Not a point
I'm gonna make room at the table for everyone
I wanna hear
And not talk
I'm gonna love you
No matter what
I'm finally free
I'm finally free
I'm finally free
From the hate disguised as truth
I'm not one of you
I'm not one of you
Whatever is true
Whatever is right
Whatever is oh so lovely
Whatever is good
Whatever is kind
Whatever is love
It's got me
Finally
Finally
I'm terribly sorry
For the damage I've done
It wasn't your fault
I thought it was love
I shoulda known better
I've waited too long
Can you forgive me?
I know I was wrong
I'm terribly sorry
For the damage I've done
It wasn't your fault
I thought it was love
I shoulda known better
I've waited too long
Can you forgive me?
I know I was wrong
I'm not one of you
I'm not one of you
I'm not one of you
But I still love you
