to those who say its about love, not God....."God is love" 1 John 4:8 The guys from P.O.D are christians, agree with them or not. They are singing about self discovery through God's grace and love. I do believe that they do allow some room for interpretation, so i guess you can get from it what you want...

Yeah its about love, but LOVE for Jesus Christ! he is sayign how God makes him feel so alive now, and he never has before this time, and he cant deny GOD. and when it says: "Tell the world how I feel inside Even though it might cost me everything" that he wil tell the world about Jesus, even though he will be persicuted for it, it doesnt matter. its so great. POD is so cool, i love the band. :)

I think that this song is about both God AND selfdiscovery! Many people have found and devloped their true self because of and through God. Something like that truly makes the real you come alive, and it feels so good that you can't "turn [your] back away."

Yes, I agree...it is a song, and a good one at that. However, I think P.O.D were aiming at a little more than just some good music. They were trying to convey a message to the people. Most artists have a message behind their work, in case you hadn't noticed that. Yes, it is possibly a god song. I'm not discounting it. This song could be seen in many ways. Personally, I agree with diablo's comment. To me, it seems like a song of self discovery. Perhaps I am biased in that I've been in a situation like that. But I know what its like to see life in a different way for the first time. To feel happy about life and that I'm in it. Thats what I think about when I hear this song. Self discovery, hope renewed. Life discovered. Inner peace.

I beleive that it is about god but I think it is also about that rush you get when you KNOW you're in love. This is a great song!
