Living Half a Life

The Story Behind "Living Half a Life"

"Living Half a Life" delves into the journey from a life of quiet desperation and unfulfilled searching to one defined by divine revelation. It speaks to the universal experience of feeling incomplete, chasing external validation, and navigating life without a clear sense of purpose. The song culminates in the liberating moment when a higher calling interrupts the struggle, affirming one's true identity and transforming a fragmented existence into a whole and purposeful life.

Lyrics

VERSE 1

I was livin’ half a life

Tryin’ just to make it right

Searchin’ in the dark for more

Didn’t know what I was for


PRE-CHORUS

You spoke and then it changed

You called me by my name


CHORUS

You stamped it on my life

Yeah, you made all things right

You spoke and said my name

I’m who you said I am


POST-CHORUS

No more searchin’ far

You made us who we are


VERSE 2

I was chasin’ what I felt

Tryin’ to be someone else

Truth was right in front of me

I just couldn’t make it seen


PRE-CHORUS

You spoke and then it changed

You called me by my name


CHORUS

You stamped it on my life

Yeah, you made all things right

You spoke and said my name

I’m who you said I am


BRIDGE

I was livin’ half, not whole

Tryin’ just to fill that hole

You made it clear what I couldn’t see

Now I see what you see in me


FINAL CHORUS

You stamped it on my life

Yeah, you made all things right

You spoke and said my name

I’m who you said I am


No more searchin’ far

You made us who we are
