Story Behind The Song
"God" was written to capture the emotional space between doubt and reassurance. The story follows two people navigating uncertainty, with one offering steady, unconditional support. The imagery (painting pictures, raising roofbeams, planting flowers) reflects the small, human rituals that build connection. The song isn't about doctrine; it's about the quiet belief we place in each other and how that belief can feel like something larger than ourselves.
Song Description
"God" is a warm, intimate acoustic song centered on love, reassurance, and the quiet strength that comes from faith. Built around a gentle guitar foundation, the track leans into emotional clarity rather than heavy production, letting the vocal carry the message with restraint. Subtle harmonies, soft dynamics, and a calm, spacious mix create a sense of safety and presence, giving the song the feel of a personal conversation.
Lyrically, the song focuses on the idea that you're not alone, even when life feels uncertain. It speaks to the comfort of being guided and understood without preaching. The tone is universal, human, and accessible.

Lyrics
ou paint the pictures and I'll hang 'em on the wall
Together we can witness the wonder of it all
I heard you say, you don't believe in God
But, anyway, God believes in you
You catch the moonbeams and put 'em in a jar
I'll raise the roofbeams till we can touch the stars
Be careful what you say
Be careful what you do
Be careful, I might fall in love with you
Only love can bring solace to the soul
Don't matter if you're rich
Don't matter if you're poor
As long as there's a sun, shining in the sky
I'll love you, babe, until the day I die
You plant the flowers and I will pray for rain
Then I'll count the hours till you're in my arms again
Be careful what you say
Be careful what you do
Be careful, I might fall in love with you
Only love can bring solace to the soul
Don't matter if you're rich
Don't matter if you're poor
As long as there's a sun, shining in the sky
I'll love you, babe, until the day I die
You paint the pictures and I'll hang 'em on the wall
Together we can witness the wonder of it all
I heard you say, you don't believe in God
Well, anyway, God believes in you
Well, anyway, God believes in you
