- Not What You See Lyrics / with translationsDo 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
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
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
