Tauren Wells – Fake It. An exclusive live performance for Vevo.
There’s an art to crafting Christian pop, and Tauren Wells has it mastered. The Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter has separated himself as an artist who can put faith-based messages in a youthful, modern context – a strong communicator. In 2018, “Known” rose to the upper echelons of the Hot Christian Songs chart. The same year, Wells became a worship leader at Lakewood Church, one of the largest congregations in America. So yeah, he has no issue preaching to the masses, and his “Fake It” performance made our studio feel 100x bigger. “I was chasing counterfeits / Tryin to find a fix / But all that I was missing was You.” There’s layers to Wells’ message here, and he makes finding truth fun along the way.

Lyrics:
I was chasing counterfeits
Tryin to find a fix
But all that I was missing was You
My hope was running out
Until you came around
And showed me there was nothing to prove (crazy)
Some would say it’s unexplainable
But I know, yeah
I know what You can do
Oooo
You’re changing my altitude
Your love is a whole new mood
Something I can put my faith in
Oooo
You struck a match in the dark
You’re melting my plastic heart
This is real don’t have to fake it
It all quit makin’ sense
Keepin’ up appearances
Cause there ain’t no impressing You
You said don’t act like it’s all good, life ain’t Hollywood, no
No, no, no, no
You keep the faith in my heart
Never knew a love like this in my life
It was You all along
I know I belong
I’m right where I’m loved
Watch for fakes this real love man it took time
Been chilling down in Florida having good times
Running Your race I can’t get off track
Don’t gotta front when You got my back
