It's kinda goofy, kinda funny, but my kid loves it- The chorus sticks in your brain, which could be a bad or a good thing, depends on if you like rap. LOL

Well let's see. I have been playing acoustic guitar for 12 years, or playing "at" it. You decide. Been singing since I learned how to talk. Just finished competing in WCOPA 2010 in LA and it was so neat playing worship songs with other countries and Trinidad! Shout to Jessie and the others in Trinidad- you guys are awesome!

Story behind the song
Tim Martindale, youth pastor director-type of PCG church, preaches this sermon alot "Who Told You That" about how Adam hid in the bushes when God came and says "Sorry, nope, can't come out. I'm naked." And God says "Who told you that?" It's about our preconcieved notions about ourselves. Satan tells us stuff like we can't do that task, or step out on that limb, because we're not cool enough, rich enough, skinny enough, young enough, etc... God's sitting there going "Who told you that?" Kind of drills that verse into your brain "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me".
Lyrics
WHO TOLD YOU THAT? Yo, I can't rap- Uh... is that what you call it? No matter how big or no matter how small it Ain't no big thing. God will provide. But there's this little voice inside. It says: "You can't do that! Who you think you are? You a FAT WHITE GIRL, not a Christian rap star! "Now who told you that?" that's what God said. "Who put them crazy things all up in your head? Look in my Word, and there you will see. It says: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." He says, "I can't dance", she says "I can't sing. And I dont' know what kinda food to bring. God you don't need me. What good am I?" Folks lookin' at me funny when I Pray and I cry If I raise my hands or shout Praise the Lord! Little honey in the corner gonna Run for the door. "Now who told you that?" that's what God said. "Who put them crazy things all up in your head? Look in my Word, and there you will see. It says: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Gonna look like a freak I'm feelin' kinda weak What are these crazy words That my tongue wants to speak? That preacher's layin' hands I'm scared and perplexed If I get up now, man I MIGHT BE NEXT!!! (Gasp! Oh no!) Don't wanna be wierd I'm livin' in fear And it's standin' in the way Of lettin' God draw me near. If I can hang in the back, then Hit the road jack I will pray to God real quiet When I'm safe in my rack. "Now who told you that?" that's what God said. "Who put them crazy things all up in your head? Look in my Word, and there you will see. It says: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." So if you ever have thoughts That say can't do it, don't do it, can't do it... Take a little minute Before ya listen to it. Ask "Who told you that?" and THINK REAL HARD. It just might be the devil Playin' games with your heart. So if who told you that Lifts you up and makes ya strong Ya know it was Jesus and He was there all along (Peace, I'm out..)
