Talking to No-One

Something new to listen to:

“Faith Today” is my attempt to take an unsparing look at a world where people don’t just accept control, they choose it. I stripped everything back on this one, both musically and vocally, because it didn’t need polish—it needed perspective. There are no heroes here, no simple answers, just the quiet ways we build our own cages in the name safety. This song sits in that tension between belonging and freedom, and what it costs to hold onto either. I’m not trying to resolve it—I’m just asking the question I can’t seem to shake: who are we supposed to be?

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]

Every smile seems so rehearsed

Every sleeve hides a chain

Everyone swears they’re hurting

But they’re all just trading in pain

Little screens, little badges

Little keys to the little cages

Say they all hate the script they’re reading

But still they’re begging for the pages

[Chorus]

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

All of em’ either captured or looking to be

Tie their own ropes, call it security

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

And I’m not sure who I’m allowed to be

[Verse 2]

Watched my brothers fold their anger

Into something they could sell

Watched my sisters dim their light

Until it only lit the cell

Every rebel drinks the koolaid

If it comes in a pretty glass

Raise a toast to being “chosen”

While knives slide into their back

[Chorus]

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

All of em’ either captured or looking to be

Sign their own names on the guarantee

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

Still not sure who I’m allowed to be

[Bridge]

Did I miss the moment where I gave in?

How’d I learn to love a leash?

If I stand alone, is that freedom

from a world that’s out of reach?

[Chorus]

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

All of em’ either captured or looking to be

Build their own walls and call it sanctuary

I’m losing faith in everyone around me

Maybe we’ll never know who I was supposed to be 

Maybe I’ll never know who I was supposed to be 

Who are we supposed to be?

Who are we supposed to be?
