Kutless - Not What You See Lyrics






Do you feel the tensions rise
Do you know why we always fight
To be better, better than you
And you better than me

I am not what you see, oh no
Not much more than a slave I wish to be
I am not what you see
Not much more a slave I should be
Nothing more, a slave I will be

How could I ever think to be more
than the one who created me
I watched him do all that he said, his words were
"Be a servant to all"

I am not what you see, oh no
Not much more than a slave I wish to be
I am not what you see
Not much more a slave I should be
Nothing more, a slave I will be

Only one deserves this exaltation
Only one deserves this elevation
But even He, He laid it down to serve on bended knee

I am not what you see, oh no
Not much more than a slave I wish to be
I am not what you see
Not much more a slave I should be
Nothing more, a slave I will be

Kutless Not What You See Comments
  1. c.... a....

    This is the first and only concert I’ve been to. When they came to anchorage Alaska I begged my parents to go

  2. G.... A....

    The first band I ever brought in as a concert promoter in upstate ny. Jesse Sprinkle was filing in on drums for them. Christian radio wouldn't even work with me to promote. To me there first album was there best by far.

  3. J.... J....

    Kutless - Not What You See. I miss videos like this. Awesome band awesome song. Making those Schecters scream! Wish bands would do more videos like the good old days. Christian music is great! All music is great .... Good job Kutless. Published on Jammin Jesse Jams Blog https://www.reverbnation.com/page_object/page_object_blogs/artist_6321724

  10. M.... M....

    obi one deserves this exaltation?

  11. D.... B....

    That's my entire childhood described in a single song . That's song is 🔥 fire.

  12. L.... K....

    L.... K....

    I Love This Song Too.

  13. F.... R....

    Super legal esse Hino Deus abençoe

  14. C.... L....

    Amen 🙏🇺🇸😇🔯 jesus cristo

  15. I.... R....

    Good song musically with a hard drive and a good melody but the lyrical theme is awful imo. The concept of aspiring to be a slave or not much more than that really isn't a great concept for a human to hold to.

    I.... R....

    Our purpose here isn't to be free to indulge, its to serve others Galatians 5:13

    I.... R....

    Most nu metal had shitty lyrics. Christian nu metal is no exception.

  16. N.... W....

    Remember this from my high school days

  17. J.... D....

    Why don't you make music like this anymore Kutless? :(

    J.... D....

    Josiah D Because the "The Industry" has swallowed them up and molded them. If you dont conform to this image of christian radio you dont make much money. Thank God this never happened to Petra, they never became the cappuccino group of conservative christian radio crowd. Its weird and strange how christian radio will play thd really good music most people like. Lets face it, most of what is on christian radio really sucks. The same thing happened to such awesome groups like Whitecross, Guardian, AD, Kerry Livgren, The Ressurrection Band, The Glen Kaiser Blues Band (formerly The Rez Band, Jerusalem, Bloodgood, Stryper, Darrell Mansfield Band, Degarmo & Key and many many more bands and artist.

    J.... D....

    @Jim Chumley dude, they sing more worship type music now. How is that conforming to the industry?

    J.... D....

    @Dwayne Johnson Their instrumentation now is a lot more pop-infused and generic, that may be what he's referring to in part

    J.... D....

    Jon pointed out in one interview where he talked about how they want to try different things because it starts to get easier when you play the same type of music so they just wanna try something new

    J.... D....

    @Dwayne Johnson hi

  18. Z.... D....

    Nice, nice💚💛💙

  19. G.... S....

    This song pretty much sums up my life!

  20. R.... R....

    I don't like religion , But I like so much the music that Jesus inspires in this guys.

    R.... R....

    Rich Rodriguez I loathe religion but love Jesus. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Jesus not religion.

  21. S.... G....

    Why does it not play on my android phone??

    S.... G....

    It played today :-)

  22. S.... G....

    superb.....which album?

    S.... G....

    It's from the album, Sea of Faces.

  23. J.... L....

    careful..first sounds seem pleasing to the ears..but you have to be more concerned about God's holy ears. Would Jesus sing or play This in a place of worship?
    Approach music by this method and by continuing prayer and bible reading..God knows what's best for us friends.

    J.... L....

    the one that blaspemes is you
    .but I will not waste time on arguing with lost people on God's holy truth..i will shake the dust off my sandals and move on the next lost soul. God bless you and good night.

    J.... L....

    Jesse L. Reyna you're wasting your time on everyone, take your tight religious panties and get out of here lol. Stop judging everyone, should grow out of your baptist church circle, I was once a baptist but swapped to a real church with real modern people, not people singing the same old boring hymns preaching like the worlds ending tomorrow judging everyone.

    Good day sir.

    J.... L....

    This song is about humbling yourself to God's will and nothing else.
    "careful..first sounds seem pleasing to the ears.." - Are you insinuating it is sinful to enjoy music that sounds good?
    "Would Jesus sing or play This in a place of worship?" - Don't pretend you know the answer to that. We cannot possibly fathom God, therefore you cannot possibly answer your own rhetoric.

    Psalm 100:1-2 - Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

    J.... L....

    Jesse L. Reyna Thats the problem with you ultra conservative pharisees. Did you know the Hyms you justify singing in church were not accepted in church for over 1to 200 yrs? I see nothing wrong with this music at all. Who are you the Holy Spirit itself? You do not know what you are talking about.

    J.... L....

    This is the dumbest comment I’ve seen in a while.

    All you need to be concerned with is what music awaits you in hell.

  24. R.... M....

    Praise the Lord he Lives

  25. J.... S....

    What are the official lyrics?

  26. p.... ....

    This had to be viral :(

    p.... ....

    porschemaniak agreed!

  27. T.... H....

    Choose your slave master in all wisdom because you WILL be bound by something. Be bound to Christ. Die that you will live.

  28. T.... H....

    "Not much more than I slave, I wish to be!"

  29. V.... M....

    kutless you guy are awesome band I love your music

  30. f.... m....

    i like sound of theses  guys

    f.... m....

    flavio marquis but their new album has a song on it that has yelling or screaming like a thrash metal band would;and this is not of God;But of Satan. Satan does appear to us as an angel of light.

    f.... m....

    That's not entirely true, yes screamo was originally developed by secular bands, but Kutless and other Christian bands have taken it to use it as a tool to reach out to fans of screamo.

    f.... m....

    @Jesse L. Reyna and just because it has scream part doesnt mean it has to be from the devil. Yes satan may disguise as an angel of light and also thru seemingly good sounds but has empty or misleading content/lyrics of the song.

  31. i.... m....

    i like the energy 

  32. C.... B....

    To all those who dont really understand what worshiping Christ is all about and how really he is put away ur selfish pride and LISTEN

    C.... B....

    Carlos Barragan oh shut up

  33. L.... G....

    THIS SONG IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED!

  34. k.... ....

    well, i suppose it might have been , but if so he's dead now.

  35. k.... ....

    it was not created by a small town pastor.... that song is nearly a hundred years old.

  36. B.... ....

    Here is a fantastic music video that the Christian world will love! It's called "Don't forget about the walk." It was written and created by a small town pastor that is also making a feature film and has written four books. You don't want to miss it! You can go to his website by going to alanmakimusicDOTcom or search for Alan Maki on youtube. It would only take a second to look and I promise you wouldn't be let down. Look him up! He has wonderful devotionals and an app too!

  37. H.... ....

    @paradoxialish Your Touch, Strong Tower, Legacy, Million dollar man, Pride Away, Vow, In Me, Again, Treason, Troubled Heart, It's Like Me, Shut Me Out and many others, but there are the hardest i know. And the best as well. Vow is awesome

  38. A.... M....

    Linkin park much??

    A.... M....
