If you had the opportunity to have a one on one conversation with God, what would you say to him?
Would you ask him for reasons why or for a way out?
Many religions believe it is posible to talk to God in prayer. I for one am not a religious person, but all men must believe in something and when it comes to our creator i believe that all creation had to have been created from his essence, a product his dynamic energy. If this is the case, we are part of him and vice versa so by that he knows our deepest thoughts.

Regardless, however, i pray today with the few lines of this song but i know that in all, he understands my plight and situation. I just need more clarity, clarity only he can give.
The gift of free will is perhaps the most intereating feature that God gives to his living creations especially humans, and by this gift i live my life exerting myself on my environment. In doing this, i may have hurt him one way or the other, but he is my maker and he knows me better than i know myself, so i only need to reach out to him from within or with my voice.

please father, hear my heart and answer my prayer, help me find truth because the truth answers the question and points to the way out, Amen.

Lyrics

I'm young and im foolish
I make bad decision
I block out the news, turned my back on religion
I've got no degree
I'm somewhat naive
I've made it this far on my own
And lately that shit ain't been getting me higher
I lift up my head and the world is on fire
There's fear in my lungs
And dread in my bones
And i just don't know what to say

CHORUS

Maybe i'll pray
pray
maybe i'll pray
I'ce never believed and you know
But i'm gonna pray

verse 2

You won't find me in church(no)
reading the bible(no)
butbi am still here and i'm still your disciple
I'm down on my knees
I'm begging you please
I'm broken, alone and afraid
No i'm not a saint,
I'm more of a sinner
I dont wanna lose, but i fear for the winner
When i try to explain
the words get away, that's why im stood here today

so i'm gonna pray
pray
Im gonna pray
I've never believed and you know, but i'm gonna

Wont you call me
can we have a one on one please
let's talk about freedom
everyone prays in the end
everyone prays in the end
woah
wont you call me
can we have a one on one please
let's talk about freedom, everyone prays in the end
everyone prays in the end
i'm gonna pray
i'm gonna pray
i'm gonna pray
I've never believe and you know
But i'm gonna pray
pray
maybe i'll pray
pray for a glimmer of hope
I'm gonna pray
pray
I'm gonna pray
I've never believes and you know
But i'm gonna pray


It's been a pleasure sharing my thoughts with you

I like many of St. Smith's songs, I enjoyed this one very much.

Right, this was easily one of my favorite too...

It's always good to hear honest communication from man to his maker and this was a beauty I could totally relate to. The first verse is basically the story of my life😅

You can sing sooooooooooo well!

It's not just singing, as I said in your other post too, it is pure emotions coming from your voice. Beauty!

I've been inspired by a lot of people hereof hive including you and some of my friends here, I have a lot of hive musicians videos on my laptop including yours.

I've seen how expressive musicians can be here, tried to emulate them and I'm glad to hear the positive feedback. I hope to build my skills as a musician here and participate in a music contest at some point.

That is great! It is always the right path, to be inspired, to be motivated, to improve day by day. You are in a right place to be appreciated. If you make to participate in some contest in your country or internationally, I wish you a lot of success. :)

Congratulations, the balance in what you do when interpreting is amazing, tuning, falsettos, melismas, in perfect harmony, really well achieved.

Thanks @gilliatt, glad to see your review on this one… still looking out for you Openmic though.

Your singing voice is unbelievable, Sam Smith will be really proud. BTW, u should consider The voice Naija audition boss

Thanks a lot bro, I’m actually considering it. Honestly I tried uploading my audition video on their site but it didn’t go through because the file size was too big, maybe I’ll have to sing live on the site for the audition, fingers crossed 🤞🏽!!

Oh it is very good you are considering it, wishing you all the best
