Lyrics
Intro (Low, chugging riff — half-time feel)
⸻
Verse 1
I had a road laid out in gold
A voice in my head said, “Just go”
I called it blessing, called it favor
But I never asked whose way it was
Blind eyes staring straight ahead
Grip the reins, ignore the dread
If God stood right in front of me
Would I even lift my head?
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I prayed for doors
I chased the deal
But conviction felt inconvenient
So I called it “free will”
⸻
Chorus (Massive, anthemic)
When the donkey speaks and I won’t listen
When the road is blocked and I still push through
If You have to break me to stop me moving
Then God, do what You gotta do
I don’t wanna hear You from the wreckage
I don’t wanna learn it the hard way through
But if pride won’t bow and fear won’t loosen
Then God… make the donkey speak to me too
⸻
Verse 2
Three times warned, three times struck
I beat the thing that saved my life
Anger louder than obedience
Fists clenched tight, knuckles white
I blamed the road, blamed the weight
Blamed the delay, cursed the wait
Never thought the mercy in front of me
Was the reason I was still alive
⸻
Pre-Chorus 2
Funny how we call it attack
When heaven stands in our path
Funny how we swing at grace
When it refuses to let us pass
⸻
Chorus (Repeat — heavier harmony)
When the donkey speaks and I won’t listen
When the road is blocked and I still push through
If You have to break me to stop me moving
Then God, do what You gotta do
I don’t wanna hear You from the wreckage
I don’t wanna learn it the hard way through
But if pride won’t bow and fear won’t loosen
Then God… make the donkey speak to me too
⸻
Bridge (Breakdown → Spoken / Sermon Weight)
(Drums drop. Guitar pulses.)
Maybe the problem ain’t the silence
Maybe it’s what I refuse to hear
Maybe God’s been yelling mercy
And I keep calling it interference
Sometimes obedience feels like delay
Sometimes wisdom sounds insane
But I’d rather be embarrassed by a warning
Than destroyed by getting my way
⸻
Build (Rising guitars, layered vocals)
Open my eyes before I swing
Open my ears before I sin
If You stand in the road to save my life
Don’t let me fight You again
⸻
Final Chorus (Full power, doubled vocals)
When the donkey speaks, I’ll listen
When the road is blocked, I’ll kneel
I don’t want profit without Your presence
I don’t want motion if it’s not real
If You have to stop me to save me
If surrender’s the only way through
Then silence my pride, shake my direction
God… I’m listening now — speak You
⸻
Outro (Slow, crushing resolve)
I don’t need a smoother road…
I need surrendered ears.
