about

Sunroof Prayers, is song about the realities of what comes with pursuing your destiny. We all know about the glamorous side of overcoming but there is a real battle that takes place long before that happens. When you're living in it, it humbles you and reminds you how much we need the Lord. It's not easy feeling the whole world is against you. Everyones trials and tribuations are different but through it all hold on to these words "The pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming." - Romans 8:18. Just know it will pass and you will overcome, I created this song as a testament to that, keep going.

lyrics

Verse 1

This driving seat elevates my view
Always had the vision drive to show and prove
Funny how they doubt when it comes to you
Ironic how that changes when you make it through

Had to stick and move, didn’t have a clue
Had to take what’s mine, no one bought me through
When the only people that you trust is only God and you
Only thing I knew to do was keep my faith and move

All this pressure on my shoulders never broke a sweat
You feel the stress when you see the life you're dealt
I never race unless it’s me against myself
I gave them love but didn't get it for myself and

All these hours putting practice got established
Set bar with every drop and I make it happen
It’s in your heart, switch the tone and bring the passion
Many are called, if were chosen would you answer?

Swam against the tide really made us wise
Watching sinners rise just confused the mind
Tell you keep your 9 to 5, just to get you by
Only solace that I had was I was living right

Only solace that I had is I was made to win
Look yourself in the mirror, how you doing king?
And forever keep it godly over anything
And let your light fall onto everything

Chorus

Staring out the window with a clear view
Smile on your face because they see you
Child of the king why they fear you
let your light fall on me through this sunroof

Staring out the window with a clear view
Smile on your face because they see you
Make a master plan, watch it come true
Let your light fall on me through this sunroof

Verse 2

Hard times I just believed it and got it
I had nothing, had to deeper my pockets
And when it's hunger really scrapping the bottom
If don’t have it then it’s natural to want it

Nothing comes with ease, you can take it for me
If you don’t wanna work then you ain’t gonna eat
if not for you, then for your family tree
But whatever you do, make sure you find you some peace

And still they’re gonna hate, while you elevate
Expansion of your coast, you’re a heavyweight
Strategic every move gotta set your pace
Opportunities will come then you levitate

And deep inside my brain, I’m trying to crack this maze
Can’t be focused on the past, do your best today
And I’m a leader in my lane, with this path that I have paved
That’s why every day I wake I've got to give him my praise

Can’t give up what’s mine, I pursue and I chase
Like I’m praying every day, how many times have you prayed?
I’m not boasting, I'm not bragging, I’m just trying to say
if you really want it, go and get it today

And if they try resist you then you fight all the way
Get the knowledge that you need and then you fight them again
I remember being stuck and never felt I’d escape
And after finding my place, I’m back to lighting your way

Chorus

Staring out the window with a clear view
Smile on your face because they see you
Child of the king why they fear you
let your light fall on me through this sunroof

Staring out the window with a clear view
Smile on your face because they see you
Make a master plan, watch it come true
Let your light fall on me through this sunroof
