Galactic Groove Lyrics


Well, here's a little story I got to tell
About my Father up in Heaven whom you know so well
But let me start off by settin' the record straight from the years past
Lettin' all those people know that used to poke fun, that used to laugh
There's only one reason why we do what we do
That's to serve our God, let His love shine through
We're here to be bold, do what we're told, of Him we are a mold
If it's His will, we'll keep rockin' til we're a 101 years old
Not once throughout my life have I ever not be the same
I never fell into the trap of the whole East Coast, West Coast thing
'Cause we're all under the reign of one King, it's time we realize
One thing, Jah people all around the world, it's time we all sing
A song of unity 'cause that's the way it should be
It's time we come together so we can let the world see
From the beaches of Cali to the wheat lands on the plains
His love is yesterday, today, forever the same
Captains log star date 2003
A Range Rover hovercraft in high pursuit of me

They're all blacked out with chrome rims and tinted windows
Sendin' me death threats with murderous innuendos
Chase this space renegade with pens and mics
Burshin' off stardust from galaxies and nebulae
La vida loca translates to livin' the rap life
And a wrong turn and a runaway truck can jackknife
Pay attention to the road as God watches and He files it
Or get grounded like imported coffee or bad pilots
I used to think I knew a lot so on goes the story
I couldn't see Decepticons on the move to transformin'
I found the world borin', wasted time in my explorin'
Dug deeper in excavatin' into the glory to glory
Writin' the Lordship, committed to one on one
Solar powered and energetic, while runnin' off the Sun
Big God, third rock, He created all that
Knowdaverbs and Pillar, we bound to bless tracks
Step back out the way and watch the Lord move
He rules the territory as the galaxy grooves

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
1. Pillar is comprised of Rob Beckley (vocals), Lester Estelle Jr.(drums), Noah Henson (guitar), and Michael "Kalel" Wittig (bass). These Christian rockers with an alt-metal edge have been honing their infectious sound since 1998 while attending Ft. Hays State University in northwestern Kansas. A deal with Flicker was inked in 2000 after the band's self-released debut, Metamorphosis, impressed the label. Within months, Pillar followed things up with Above. Their first single, "Open Your Eyes," was popular on the college charts, earning Above nearly 60,000 in sales. Pillar also earned the Best Rock Band award at the annual Dove Awards in 2001.

A year later, Pillar relocated to Tulsa, OK, and released Fireproof. MCA picked up the band and reissued the energetic sophomore effort in 2003. However, MCA shut down shortly thereafter and Pillar returned to Flicker, and released their next album, Where Do We Go From Here, in 2004.

In 2005, Joey "Cinco" Avalos, formerly of Christian rock trio Justifide, was added as a second guitar player. He was never an official member of the band, and only played live shows. He no longer does, as he is playing in the newly started band "Stars Go Dim".

In Pillar's 2006 release, The Reckoning, the band stays true to their style while experimenting with new sounds. Pillar was nominated for the "Best Rock/Rap Gospel Album" Grammy with this album.

On Pillar's fifth album, For The Love Of The Game, frontman Rob Beckley says this:
“We get to say that we play rock ‘n roll for a living. We get to see lives changed. We have a renewed love and focus. With that in mind, making For the Love of the Game was very fun, and very fluent; it just came out. We went into the studio knowing what the album was going to be called and we were able to carry the vision through. We wanted to have a positive, bright, fun sounding record. That was our intent from the beginning. We trust that as people hear this record, God will use it to change lives. That’’s the ultimate fuel for our fire. When someone tells us, ‘‘your music changed my marriage, or brought me closer to God,’ that’s when we know God is using our music, and that’’s what it’s all about to us.” ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
Written by MacKenzie Wilson and Abel Ringvold

Pillar's sixth album, "Confessions," was released on September 22, 2009, claiming to show an evolved style but at the same time sticking close to the formula developed in For The Love Of The Game.

2. Pillar was a band that consisted of Dave Walker, who would later on do vocals for Harvest and Krakatoa, and Justin Kane, who would go on to drum for Disembodied and Martyr AD. Not much is known of Pillar other then a demo released in 1993, which was produced by Cad Dziewior (Threadbare, 108, Judas Factor, etc.)
