Hello my God,
I’m not here to question your throne
But I’m building on faith and still feel alone
I laid the foundation with prayer and truth
But every door I knock on just says “remove”
I gave my all, I gave my best
But failure’s the only thing I seem to get
They say you bless the work of our hands
So why does mine keep sinking in sand?
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not asking for riches or fame
Just a chance to build in your name
But every pitch gets turned away
And every “no” feels like you walked away
[Chorus]
Where are you in the struggle, Lord?
When I’m trying to build what I can’t afford
When I’m mocked for doing business right
And darkness tries to dim my light
I’m still a believer, still holding on
But I’m tired, Lord, and the nights are long
So if you hear me, please don’t delay
I need your strength to face another day
[Verse 2]
They say “keep going,” but they don’t see
The weight of building with integrity
In a world that profits off deceit
Where truth gets trampled under feet
I’ve been laughed at, passed by, shut down
Told I’m too “clean” to run this town
But I won’t sell out, won’t compromise
Even when it costs me every dime
[Bridge – Spoken Word Flow]
I had a dream the devil made me an offer
Said “take the shortcut, be a baller”
But I said no—I’d rather be broke
Than build success on a lie or a joke
So I stayed in the fire, stayed in the fight
But Lord, I need you to show me the light
I’m not asking for ease, just a sign
That this path I’m on is still divine
[Final Chorus]
Where are you in the struggle, Lord?
When I’m trying to build what I can’t afford
When I’m mocked for doing business right
And darkness tries to dim my light
I’m still a believer, still holding on
But I’m tired, Lord, and the nights are long
So if you hear me, please don’t delay
I need your strength to face another day
[Outro]
Hello my God,
I’m not giving up, I’m just worn thin
Trying to build a legacy that honors Him
So I’ll end this prayer with faith again
Still a believer…
Amen.
