Woke Up To A Battle I Never Chose | A Foster/Suno collab

One of my first musical AI collaborations, expressing some of my initial emotional responses upon learning I had metastatic Stage 4 colon cancer. Click red arrow to play.

[Verse]
Woke up to a battle I never chose
The mirror reflects what the chemo shows
But there’s steel in my soul and fire in my veins
Through every tear I’ll face this pain

[Verse 2]
The doctors talk in words I can’t control
Like storms carving rivers into my soul
But I still see sunsets and hear the rain
I’m holding tight while I’m still sane

[Chorus]
Oh God I’m down here on my knees
Through the struggle through every please
Lord grant me strength to face the fight
And lead me through the darkest night

[Verse 3]
Scarred and changed but I’m still me
Every wound’s a chapter every bruise a plea
Each prayer is a flame that won’t go dim
I walk on faith when the path grows grim

[Bridge]
Not asking why not cursing the sky
I’m learning to smile as the moments fly
It’s hope that feeds this healing fire
A song of faith lifting me higher

[Chorus]
Oh God I’m down here on my knees
Through the struggle through every please
Lord grant me strength to face the fight
And lead me through the darkest night
