Maybe I'm Afraid Lyrics

There's no way I can hide
It's written on my face, all these complications now

Maybe I'm afraid to open up and let You in
Behind the curtain
Maybe I'm afraid of the questions
That I know You'd raise what I thought was certain

Maybe I'm afraid of the mess
That is sure to make
Of all I've tried to simplify, organize
But I just can't deny

That there's no way I can hide
It's written on my face
And all the complications fumbling with my equations
Now they crumble to the ground

With everything I thought
To be without Your help
'Cause if I let You in I'll never be the same
So I try to escape, maybe I'm afraid

Maybe I'm afraid to let it go and just accept
That love has spoken
Maybe I'm afraid of the way that I know You'll fix
Everything that's broken

And maybe I'm afraid
'Cause I don't know who You are
That the more I get from You, the more I lose
So what am I holding on to?

There's no way I can hide
It's written on my face
And all the complications fumbling with my equations
Now they crumble to the ground

With everything I thought
To be without Your help
'Cause if I let You in I'll never be the same
So I try to escape, maybe I'm afraid

Afraid of being complete
It's just so weak in Your hands
Maybe I'm afraid, afraid that it won't last
I'll only be half without You

Maybe I'm afraid to let You change my heart
With all that's hiding
Maybe I'm afraid that I just might fall apart
Unless You're beside me

And I know there's no way I can hide
It's written on my face
And all the complications fumbling with my equations
Now they crumble to the ground

With everything I thought
To be without Your help
'Cause if I let You in I'll never be the same
No, I can't escape, well, maybe I'm afraid

Maybe I'm afraid, maybe I'm afraid
Maybe I'm afraid, maybe I'm afraid
Maybe I'm afraid, maybe I'm afraid
Maybe, maybe, maybe I'm afraid

At first glance, Kerrie Roberts is the unassuming girl with a huge voice. But once her voice captures you, it is clear there’s much more going on here. Dynamic yet intimate, uniquely emotive and soulful, her self-titled debut reveals the heart of an empathetic artist.

These are the songs of a distinctly relational and prolific songwriter. “My father is a pastor, so my whole family has been shaped by the church,” says Kerrie. “From a young age, my parents always taught me to reach out to the broken and to those who need hope.” With her first performance at the age of 5, Kerrie grew up singing in church, playing piano and leading worship. She wrote her first songs in high school. The 10 songs on Kerrie Roberts reflect the redemptive seeds planted during those years and into her young adulthood.

Thematically, the album explores a thoughtful side of faith, hope and love—the acknowledgment that an authentic life of faith isn’t void of suffering, the purpose amidst pain, the promise that a breakthrough is coming, and the motivating power of God’s love. Says Kerrie, “I want every song to leave people with a sense of purpose—a call to action, a realization of a truth, a promotion of hope and healing.”
