Rather than offering an easy answer, the song gives voice to questions that can emerge when pain collides with faith:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Would You care if I walked away?<br \/>Do You know the price that I&#8217;ve had to pay?<br \/>Please God, I&#8217;m having trouble believing<br \/>Cuz seeing&#8217;s deceiving, how can I put my trust in You now?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the heart of the song is the tension between what someone has experienced and Christ&#8217;s invitation in Matthew 11:28:&nbsp;<em>&#8220;Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em>The song also draws from Christ&#8217;s sobering warnings in Matthew 18:5-6 and Luke 17:2 concerning those who cause children to stumble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s a subject XIII Minutes believes deserves to be brought into the light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/mailer.newreleasetoday.com\/l\/968rTcsc763yiuHv9XlxoZfA\/tv8Z892XQSBXtGcrKWDMXkoQ\/HuOmgehkCHKgmtPNdnfNvw\">Seeing Is Deceiving<\/a>&#8221; doesn&#8217;t minimize the damage caused by abuse or rush past the difficult questions that can follow it. Instead, the song allows those questions to exist while pointing toward the healing, rest, and restoration found in Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That combination of musical intensity and emotional honesty is already earning attention from Christian rock and metal media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mailer.newreleasetoday.com\/l\/968rTcsc763yiuHv9XlxoZfA\/99GG3iNprXzn892sc43lVTzw\/HuOmgehkCHKgmtPNdnfNvw\">Solid Rock Unplugged<\/a>&nbsp;called the single a &#8220;hard-hitting, deep follow-up&#8221; to the band&#8217;s previous release, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/mailer.newreleasetoday.com\/l\/968rTcsc763yiuHv9XlxoZfA\/yce6M1qz5RvM4fUd763mcalA\/HuOmgehkCHKgmtPNdnfNvw\">Panic<\/a>,&#8221; praising John Watson&#8217;s guitar work, Jerrod Cunningham&#8217;s emotionally charged vocals, and Jamie Kucinski&#8217;s driving drums.
