Kevin Quinn has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called It's About Time.
Kevin shares that the inspiration for this song came from currencies in his life, especially the current chapter which he is in.
Kevin says: "You could call it growing pains if you will, but as I approach 25 here I'm really starting to understand and realize my own mortality for the first time, which I know is not an easy thing for anyone to hear or think about right now, but it's just something that has happened for the first time in my life. I lost friends at a young age. My process of grief comprehension was a lot different than it is now. Some part of me believed that they would still be coming back.
I've lost a few more friends since that time. It felt like the grief was kind of catching up to me a bit, but I still wanted to make music that was inspiring, uplifting, and positive. "It's about time" was just that for me.
We even had a conversation in the writer's room about how we could take a heavy subject like that and make it something not so heavy, and I think we accomplished that.
Kevin says the following about the biggest thing that he hopes fans and the viewers will take away: "I understand that this audience is growing with me. They've been with me for a while now, and we've kind of gotten to grow up together. Sometimes when we're this young, we tend to forget just how fragile life is, and just how sacred it is. For me, a lot of those ideas tie back to Christianity. I love being able to talk about faith in a kind of accessible mainstream way, that is accessible to not only the CCM audience but also mainstream listeners."
Lyrics:
What you're breathin' for
What's your bettin' all your seconds on
What you're gonna wish
That you could undo when it's all said and done
Waste tick-tocks on the clock
Are you gonna wound back when it stops
Yeah, we here right now
But we're never gonna be gone
Yeah, life's too short
To live like it's gonna be long
It's about time and how we spend it
Every hour, every minute
It's about knowing that we're chasing
All the beautiful things that make it
Worth the ride
To the other side
It's about time we started livin'
Like tomorrow ain't ever a given
Every moment is a surrender
To the One who holds forever
Starting now
What it's all about
Yeah, it's about time
It's not about us
Not about getting what we deserve
It's about showin up
With Your love
Like who can we serve
Open hearts, broken parts and all (Oh)
It's about time and how we spend it
Every hour, every minute
It's about knowing that we're chasing
All the beautiful things that make it
Worth the ride
To the other side
It's about time we started livin'
Like tomorrow ain't ever a given
Every moment is a surrender
To the One who holds forever
Starting now
What it's all about
Yeah, it's about time
Yeah, we here right now
But we're never gonna be gone
Yeah, life's too short
To live like it's gonna be long
Yeah, we here right now
But we're never gonna be gone
Yeah, life's too short
To live like it's gonna be long
It's about time and how we spend it
Every hour, every minute
It's about knowing that we're chasing
All the beautiful things that make it
Worth the ride
To the other side (oh)
It's about time we started livin'
Like tomorrow ain't ever a given
Every moment is a surrender
To the One who holds forever
Starting now
What it's all about
Yeah, it's about time
