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 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.
