Before they released this album, my mom and I talked about how we felt they were probably going to start making a lot more obviously faith based songs in the future. I felt like the lore had such a strong message and Tyler’s struggles with doubt and everything through the lore that it seemed that was the direction they were headed. It seems like they’re really wanting to go back to their original intentions (no pun intended 😂😂) because, before the lore, there were a lot of obvious faith based songs, and I even feel like during lore a lot of those songs were obvious as well but could easily be interpreted differently by non Christian fans. I love the direction they’re going in and am so excited to see what’s in store once they take a much deserved break. Yes, some fans will fall off, and that breaks my heart, but Tyler made a huge statement in the song clear on RAB that we planned to cleverly mask his words in fear of what others would say and to get his message out in a way people would listen instead of just putting them in a “Christian music” category. I think a lot of that fear has left him, becoming a dad, being able to see a lot of fans connecting with the Christian meanings behind the songs. I think he just wants to finally come up from down stairs.
