'a boy carrying god'
a boy carrying god is a meditation on faith, identity, grief, and becoming.
Through deeply personal reflections, the song explores the tension between spiritual devotion and human vulnerability—moving through doubt, inherited weight, healing, and acceptance.
Rather than offering answers, the song sits with life's contradictions, tracing the quiet journey of someone learning to carry belief, pain, love, and purpose at the same time.
It is less about religion than the search for meaning, and the realization that being human is both the burden and the gift.

lyrics
thought is evoked i feel the spark
if i spoke all the feelings i feel things would get dark
belief in a god i pray to a lot
and finally felt the arc
ends different to how it start
faith and i drifted apart
emotions come rushing in
like a break on the shore
crash memories whiplash
flash backs of how i felt way before
feelings of being insecure and being unsure
i feel i can't be healed
and there's no cure
so i go seeking for more and more
until i can't no more
swimming in an endless sea of pain
until the muscles is sore
it's getting hard to ignore
feeding into the lore
life is a beautiful balance
and delicate dance
with fragile hands
that reach the depths of the sand
and still i stand here face to face
with map and a plan
the archetype of a man
i rise when the sunrise
light comes through the blinds
i'm blinded by sight
gratitude for everyday that i wake
and the end of all days
draped in night
with my hands prayed tight
sometimes i feel like i'm god's only son
but can't be the only one
story unwritten and songs un sung
way before it begun
baring the weight of being my mothers son
even what’s destined could still weigh a ton
can't help feeling this way
feeling a pain when's there nothing to gain
so still I refrain from pictures in my life that i paint
without a brush just having patience
and trust there is no rush
so step back with no hesitation
just time practice and dedication
i find spaces in my life
my soul could occupy
spiritually exercise
the feeling of breathe arrives
and then i come back alive
to balance the human side
i'm finding the depth that's inside
it feels better to run and hide
then face the fear that's inside
projections of hate you subside
patiently wait to arrive
but then the feeling it dies
i could see in your eyes
your skin and sin one alike a disguise
you attribute your lose to the time
that's always been on your side
every single time it'll be your demise
sometimes i feel dehumanized
judge by the skin of my body
that's just my human side
soul embodies more of a spirit
that is immortalized
theres just more to life
peace
