(Lonely piano—slow, minor chords, lots of space between notes)
Intro
Mm… yeah
Just me and these keys
Talkin’ to God tonight
Chorus
Piano play my pain, every note a prayer
I was lost in the storm, but He met me there
Had to fall to my knees, had to learn to care
When the world felt heavy, yeah, He carried me
I was lookin’ for love in the wrong places
Tried to heal my heart with the wrong faces
Now I sing hallelujah through the hard days
Only thing in the room is this piano and faith
Verse 1
Late night, lights low, just thoughts and regret
Replayin’ every choice, every move I made
I was chasin’ a life that I never met
Had a hole in my chest, tried to cover it with success
Mama told me, “Pray first, don’t rush”
I ain’t listen back then, I was stuck in my ways
Now I whisper His name when the nights get tough
Every tear I cried turned to strength and trust
I been humbled by losses, shaped by grace
I seen dark days slowly fade away
Every wrong road led me to this place
Just me, these keys, and amazing grace
Chorus
Piano play my pain, every note a prayer
I was lost in the storm, but He met me there
Had to fall to my knees, had to learn to care
When the world felt heavy, yeah, He carried me
I was lookin’ for love in the wrong places
Tried to heal my heart with the wrong faces
Now I sing hallelujah through the hard days
Only thing in the room is this piano and faith
Verse 2
Silence loud when you sittin’ with truth
Can’t run from yourself when the beat ain’t looped
No crowd, no hype, just a heart and a booth
Had to talk to God like, “What I’m supposed to do?”
He said, “Trust Me, even when you don’t see”
I said, “I’m scared,” He said, “That’s okay”
Every scar on my soul got a story to preach
Every broken piece still got purpose in me
I ain’t perfect, I fall, yeah, I slip sometimes
But His mercy new with the sunrise
So I play these keys, let my soul align
Turn my pain into praise, one chord at a time
Bridge (melodic, stripped)
Mm…
No drums, no chains
Just faith and change
Mm…
Still hear His voice
In the quiet pain
Chorus
Piano play my pain, every note a prayer
I was lost in the storm, but He met me there
Had to fall to my knees, had to learn to care
When the world felt heavy, yeah, He carried me
I was lookin’ for love in the wrong places
Tried to heal my heart with the wrong faces
Now I sing hallelujah through the hard days
Only thing in the room is this piano and faith
Outro
(piano trails off, soft humming)
Yeah…
If nobody hear me, I know He do
Amen
