Prompt / Lyrics
[Spoken Word] “This is a prayer for the ones who were never picked. For the ones who learned to survive before they learned to belong. For every soul who wondered if they were forgotten… If You’re listening — this is for them.” [Intro - Instrumental] [Verse 1] Some learned silence way too young Learned to stand when help wouldn’t come Crowded rooms, still felt alone Always there, but never chosen Played the game, but not by choice Only picked when forced to join Smiles practiced, head held low Learning strength they shouldn’t know [Pre-Chorus 1] When no one called their name out loud When they felt unseen and small [Chorus 1] So God, if You’re listening tonight See the ones pushed to the side The quiet kids, the lonely hearts The overlooked, the left behind If the world forgot their worth If they learned to hide their pain God, if You’re listening tonight Please call them by their name [Verse 2] Some carry weight they never made Inherited the blame Born into a losing hand Still punished all the same Told it’s theirs to overcome Shame stitched into their skin Running laps they didn’t choose Trapped in where they’ve been [Pre-Chorus 2] They blame themselves for every scar For every locked-in door [Chorus 2] So God, if You’re listening tonight See the ones who tried to change Who carry guilt that isn’t theirs Who wear inherited chains If they think they’re past forgiveness If they’re drowning in regret God, if You’re listening tonight Remind them who they are — not what they get [Verse 3] Some still believe, but barely breathe Prayers worn paper-thin Knocking on a heaven door Unsure who’s letting in They’ve prayed for years, they’ve waited long Still standing in the rain Afraid to say their faith still hurts Afraid to speak the pain [Pre-Chorus 3] When they don’t have the strength to reach When even hope feels gone [Chorus 3] So God, if You’re listening tonight Stay close to tired souls The ones who still believe in You But feel so far from whole If they can’t lift their hands again If all they do is stay God, if You’re listening tonight Please meet them where they pray [Bridge] The pain we couldn’t see For every story left untold Every silent plea For the ones hiding in plain sight For the ones we walked right past If we failed to say their name You never asked us to [Final Chorus] So God, if You’re listening tonight See the ones pushed to the side The quiet kids, the lonely hearts The overlooked, the left behind If the world forgot their worth If they learned to hide their pain God, if You’re listening tonight Please call them by their name And God, if You’re listening tonight See the ones who tried to change Who carry guilt that isn’t theirs Who wear inherited chains If they think they’re past forgiveness If they’re drowning in regret God, if You’re listening tonight Remind them who they are — not what they get Please God, if You’re listening tonight Stay close to tired souls The ones who still believe in You But feel so far from whole If they can’t lift their hands again If all they do is stay God, if You’re listening tonight Please meet them where they pray Because no one here is invisible No soul is passed unknown Every tear, every prayer Every breath is counted, every name is known And God, I still believe somehow You’ve seen us all along So God, if You’re listening tonight We’re here — and we belong [Outro - Instrumental] [Spoken Word] “If no one ever chose you… you were still chosen. If no one ever called your name… it was never forgotten. You are seen. You are known. You belong.”
