Circumstances

Countryrock, soul, funk, gospel, some jazz, piano, gradual build, strong climax, saxophone

-"I got a little rant I need to get off my chest, sorry"

I look at the night sky and I wonder why
Some people see nothing, while I see design.
’Cause every constant, every law, every silent cosmic line—
If it shifted just a breath, none of us would be alive.
And I keep thinkin’, “Ain’t it funny how we’re sittin’ here at all?”
If physics sneezed the wrong direction, we’d never learn to crawl.
If protons had different charge by even half a wink,
This whole big cosmic honky-tonk would vanish in a blink.
But folks say, “Nah, it’s random, just a cosmic accident.”
Well, so is my burnin’ toast—but this world feels more elegant.

Why don’t we dare believe in a Maker?
Why are we scared to even say the word “Creator”?
Life didn’t need to spark, but somehow it did—
From a single cell to everything that lives.
’Cause life’s too weirdly balanced
To be pure chaotic chance.
Why are we so scared to say
There might be more than circumstance?

The first fish crawlin’ on the beach—now that must’ve felt insane,
Like jumpin’ out your bathtub and tryin’ to drive a train.
And then there’s that story ’bout an ape who got kicked out a tree,
Sat in the dirt and said, “You know what? Walkin’ sounds good to me.”
Two hundred thousand candles on our birthday cake today—
Funny when the planet’s pushin’ four and a half billion, hey?
So I said, “Kinda wild, right? That we’re the last ones on the scene.”
But folks just rolled their eyes at me like I’d said somethin’ obscene.
If askin’ who we are is scary, Maybe that’s the point of all this breath—
We’re meant to face the mystery, Not hide from it till death.

So why’re we late to the party,
Stumblin’ in like we just learned how to walk?
All these ancient creatures livin’
Long before we learned to talk.
The universe kept spinnin’
While we slept in cosmic night—
And you wanna tell me nobody planned
For us to flick on the light?

I’m not sellin’ revelations,
Ain’t recruitin’ anybody in.
I just think that big ol’ questions
Ain’t somethin’ we should fear within.
If wonder shakes your comfort zone,
Maybe it was shaky all along—

Why don’t we dare believe in a Maker?
Why are we scared to even say the word “Creator”?
Life didn’t need to spark, but somehow it did—
From a single cell to everything that lives.
Believin' in a different living after death
Existin' in higher dimensions after last breath
’Cause life’s too weirdly balanced
To be pure chaotic chance.
Why are we so scared to say
There might be more than circumstance?
