“Faith” is the final song off of my EP, “Stages”. As a very stripped down and raw display of emotion, this song delves into the mind of a person struggling with religion and what to believe.
[Hook]
I wanna stretch out my hands and pray
But it feels like you never hear what I say
I do all I can, but you give and you take
It’s hard to believe when nothing’s giving me faith
I wanna stretch out my hands and pray
But it feels like you never hear what I say

Give and you take, yeah
And nothing’s giving me faith
[Verse]
I want to know

[Bridge]
It’s hard to believe in someone that’s been so gone
And it’s hard to speak, when we ain’t talked in so long

Because I’ve felt so alone
[Hook]
I wanna stretch out my hands and pray
But it feels like you never hear what I say
I do all I can, but you give and you take
It’s hard to believe when nothing’s giving me faith
I wanna stretch out my hands and pray
But it feels like you never hear what I say
I do all I can, but you give and you take
Give and you take, yeah
And nothing’s giving me faith
[Outro]
Faith, faith
Faith, faith

This song is very personal to me. I grew up in a Southern Baptist church where I wasn’t really told the correct ways to follow religion, so because of that I have grown up as what I have been told is an “agnostic atheist” way of thinking, meaning that i do not believe in a God but I won’t disprove o...
