ARE WE A PEOPLE AT HALF TIME? - Leadership Network

eclectic and great and they will
ask, ‘What does this mean’ I
think that sometimes very creative
and artistic people use that as an
excuse for not being able to
express themselves properly.
I just think you can’t run from the
truth. As much as you want to
run – and as much as you want to
– you can’t run. One of the things
I used to tell my dad is, ‘I’m not
going to be a missionary. No way
I’m going to some Third World
country. No way.’ Okay God, did
you hear that I’m not going to be
a missionary. And I think that I
was running. I think that I’m still
running, to some degree. But the
ironic thing is that I’m running and
that I ran right into Him. And I’m
like doing the same thing that I’d
We the meek are all in one
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
be doing – I mean, I’ve affected so
many people by accident just like I
was a minister with the message
of salvation in My Own Prison. I
didn’t even think about it until after
it was done. And how many people
who have never even stepped in
a church hear My Own Prison
every day.
I asked God for this but then I
didn’t want it any more. And I
asked God – you know, I would
ask God for things when I was
young – I would be like, ‘God give
me the wisdom of King Solomon
and give me the spiritual strength
of Samson.’ I would ask Him for
all of these things. I would be like
please, help me understand and
use me and all this stuff. And then,
all of a sudden I didn’t want it any
more but He gave it to me anyway.
And He’s like, well, if I gave you all
of this stuff, you’re going to use it,
whether you want to or not. I think
that’s basically how it’s developed.
You know my songs on this album
were – there was a lot of, listen
man, I know what’s right. I know
what I’m supposed to feel is right.
I’ve been told there’s still something
missing.
I didn’t know we were going to be
on the radio or I didn’t know that
we were going to sell 3 million
records and I was going to be
doing interviews like this. We
didn’t know. I wrote them for me.
The only answer for the success is
the message. I think there’s a message
in there that needs to get out
and that God wanted to get out.
doug: It seems to me that you
guys are real nice guys that don’t
have some big machine behind
you creating an image and pushing
the thing.
Scott: What you see is what you
get. It wasn’t intentional. That’s
how we wanted it to be. We just
wanted people to say, ‘This is
Creed, this is Scott, this is Brian,
1

this is Mark.’ It’s not like I wake up
every day and put on my rock star
outfit. We get up and what you see
is what you get. It’s a struggle in
the sense of I want to be real and I
want to be who I am, but the public
doesn't want that. In essence,
they don’t want me to be real.
