Between Generations

A song for a generation raised between screens and tradition. They told him to take his time and not hurry, but his heart runs, wanting meaning and change. A grandmother's voice at dawn still calls people to prayer while his head holds a sea of questions. We are lost from ourselves, the verse says, and we have forgotten the custom of prayer, laughter, late nights and fatigue. A house of glass has a door that is also glass; fear is bigger than the barrier, but faith is stronger. He asks God to keep them steady and keep the light in the heart. The bridge says what is needed is not another tune but a soul, and that a person who has lost his soul gains nothing. Even after a thousand falls there is breath in us; we raise our hands to the sky, knowing God will not leave us with nothing. We want to write our own story and return to our strength, and to know when to say enough.
