Dark Days

I wrote this late 2025. I was working in the gaol and had a yelling match with an inmate, and then afterwards I thought to myself, "I never yell at inmates, I must have an anger issue."

So I spent time with God delving into it, and wrote this song about not feeling appreciated. It was a song for the moment, reflecting my feelings back then.

I was hesitant to release it, as it's a song about complaining, however I believe the story in the song reflects growth which might help other men.

I won't release it on YouTube, but just on the streaming services (ie. Spotify) as I believe only a select group of people will like the song.

If it touches your heart, I'm glad I can help you on your walk with God.

Lyrics

"Dark Days" by KunzyPoet

I watch the world having all the fun

They have no rules and do what they want

When life gets hard they just move on

Sometimes I wish I was just like them

But I am working, providing for my family

And through the night, I'm changing dirty nappies

I'm calming my spouse, who's very overtired

I'm being their rock, while crumbling inside

I remind myself

I've tried their ways

And their empty pleasure

I'm so glad I made

The right choice for

Jesus to be my Saviour.

But on my dark days

When I can't pray

And I can't bare

That no one cares

all I'm doing for them

Promise me Lord,

my sacrifice made all the difference.

By following Jesus, I fight myself

I carry my cross and shut my mouth

But I am tired of the war in me

Sometimes I wish I was just like them

While I envy, I don't see them in the dark

When the drugs can't silence their heart

They're crying in pain from torn relationships

They're dying from the shame of selfishness

I remind myself

I've tried their ways

And their empty pleasure

I'm so glad I made

The right choice for

Jesus to be my Saviour.

But on my dark days

When I can't pray

And I can't bare

That no one cares

all I'm doing for them

Promise me Lord,

my sacrifice made all the difference.

But on my dark days

When I can't pray

And I can't bare

That no one cares

all I'm doing for them

Promise me Lord,

my sacrifice made all the difference.

Then Jesus removes the veil and I see

angels leading me by my hand

Their faces show how proud they are of me

I finally know God understands.

I remind myself

I've tried their ways

And their empty pleasure

I'm so glad I made

The right choice for

Jesus to be my Saviour.

And on my dark days

I will still pray

And in my prayers

I know Jesus cares

all I'm doing for them

I know now Lord,

my sacrifice made all the difference.

And on my dark days

I will still pray

And in my prayers

I know Jesus cares

all I'm doing for them

I know now Lord,

my sacrifice made all the difference
