The band had gone through numerous line-up changes over the years, but singer Ryan Kepke and Joe Nixon (drums) performed on every release, while Jeremiah Brown (bass) played on all except their final album, Far From Nowhere. This was their first release without Tooth and Nail Records, which they left, not for religious reasons, but merely because their contract had finished and the band felt the need for a change. Far From Nowhere was released on SideOneDummy Records in the summer of 2003.
The band was particularly successful in the Christian punk scene in the late 90s and early 2000s and toured alongside their peers, both secular and Christian (most notably bands such as Face to Face and MxPx, respectively). They also played certain legs of the Vans Warped Tour in 2003.

Slick Shoes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That may not be, but that's how it seems.
Why have you come into my life?
You've taken my heart.
How do you make me cry?
You say you don't believe in luck and I do agree with you.
Sometimes I really have to wonder.
I sure feel lucky when I'm next to you.
I'm just a normal guy, plain as can be.
I really love to see you smile.
You've turned me upside down and I donæ?° even mind.
You say you don't believe in luck and I do agree with you.
Sometimes I really have to wonder.
I sure feel lucky when I'm next to you.
The song "Lucky" by Slick Shoes is a love song that expresses a sense of wonder and gratitude towards a mysterious and special person. The main theme is the feeling of luck that the singer experiences when he is next to this person. The opening line, "Who are you sent from heaven just for me?" hints at a sense of fate or destiny that brought these two people together. It's clear that the singer is deeply enamored with this person, as evidenced by the line "You've taken my heart" and the description of being turned "upside down" by their love.
The second verse talks about the singer's surprise that this person would be interested in him. He sees himself as just a normal, plain person, and can't understand why this other person would be attracted to him. Despite his confusion, he expresses that one of his greatest joys is seeing this person smile. The chorus again highlights the sense of luck he feels when he's with this person.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt expression of love and gratitude towards a person who makes the singer feel lucky and special. While there is some sense of disbelief or confusion about why this person would be interested in him, the singer is clearly very happy to be with them.
