He spent eight years in Nashville before signing a record deal with MCA Nashville. His debut single, "Mary Was the Marrying Kind", peaked at #45 on the country singles charts published by Billboard.
On September 27, 2011, he released his second single, "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck". The song was followed by the release of his debut album Up All Night in April 2012. Moore co-wrote every song on the album, and Brett James produced it. A month later, "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck" hit #1 on the Billboard country charts. "Beer Money" was the album's second single, followed by "Hey Pretty Girl". These songs also reached the country Top 5. Up All Night was the most commercially successful album for a debut country male artist in both 2012 and 2013.
Moore co-wrote two tracks on Thompson Square's self-titled debut album which was released in February 2011: "All the Way" and "Let's Fight", the latter of which was their debut single. He also co-wrote James Wesley's 2012 single "Walking Contradiction". He also co-wrote Frankie Ballard's 2016 single "Cigarette".
In October 2013, Moore announced his fifth single, "Young Love". It charted at #22 on the Country Airplay in March 2014. After it underperformed, it was followed by "Dirt Road", which failed to make Top 40. Moore then decided to "scrap" his second album and compose new material. Moore then released "I'm to Blame", the lead single to his 2015 album, Wild Ones.
On February 10, 2017, Moore released "More Girls Like You" as the lead single from a then-unannounced forthcoming album.
On June 21, 2017, Moore announced the album's title, Slowheart, and its release date of September 8, 2017.
On November 16, 2018, Moore released his second EP titled Room to Spare: The Acoustic Sessions. Three singles were released in preparation for the EP: "Tennessee Boy," an acoustic version of "Plead the Fifth," and "It Ain't California." The EP consists of seven acoustic tracks.
In May 2019, Moore announced on social media "That's a wrap, record #4 is done". No release date had been officially announced, but on June 15 Moore announced he was checking mixes for his upcoming record, indicating the record may be released sometime in 2019.
On August 9, 2019, Moore released a much-anticipated lead single to his yet to be named upcoming album. "She's Mine" is a song Moore wrote over a decade ago, and finally released it in 2019.
On March 27, 2020, Moore released the title track for his fourth studio album titled Wild World. Later that same day, Moore did an interview with Billboard about his new album. The album, which consists of 13 tracks (twelve of which are co-written by Moore), was released on May 29, 2020. Another preview song, "Southpaw", followed on April 17, 2020.
Faith When I Fall
Kip Moore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know I've been a stranger and that's all my fault
And asking you for anything don't early seem right
But the winds are change, a-blowing
Give me love when I ain't got nobody
A little hope when I ain't got none at all
Give me light up ahead up on the journey
And faith when I fall
I know the rain is coming and it's sure gonna pour
I know there ain't no running from this kinda storm
It's gonna get harder and harder to keep on pushing through
I'm gonna wanna quit, so I'll be counting on you
Give me love when I ain't got nobody
A little hope when I ain't got none at all
Give me light up ahead on the journey
Give me strength when I'm standing
And faith when I fall
When the clouds start parting and the sun starts shining through
This time I won't forget, I won't forget about you
Give me love when I ain't got nobody
A little hope when I ain't got none at all
Give me love when I ain't got nobody
A little hope when I ain't got none at all
Give me light up ahead on the journey
Give me strength when I'm standing
And faith when I fall
Give me strength when I'm standing
And faith when I fall, yeah
In "Faith When I Fall," Kip Moore sings about asking for help and support from someone he has been distant from. He acknowledges that he has been at fault for not keeping in touch and reaching out for help, but he now needs them more than ever. Through the lyrics, he makes a plea for a little love, hope, light, strength, and faith to keep pushing forward even in the midst of a coming storm.
Moore's request for love, hope, light, strength, and faith is universal, and this song is achingly relatable to anyone who has ever faced tough times. It's easy to feel lost and alone in moments of hardship, but the lyrics remind the listener that sometimes all they need is someone to lean on.
The song's simplicity is its charm, and a poignant reminder that sometimes people just need a little bit of faith to keep them going. The emotional resonance of Moore's lyrics have made the song an anthem for overcoming obstacles and pushing through adversity.
