Sometimes we pray for resurrection, justice, peace… and still feel unheard.
“Are you blind to me? Or can I not see you?”
King Incognito—a song born out of wrestling with God’s silence when life feels unfair.
If you’ve ever wondered whether He sees you, this one’s for you.

Are you a subscriber on YouTube? I'm 15 shy of 200 and I'd love to get there before the end of the year. There I do my weekly livestream, post demos and covers as well as live tracks and lyric videos. It's some pretty good content if I do say so myself.
