about

Faith is a very generalistic song - Noor doesn’t write many like that - but it revolves around various imagery about holding on and keeping your faith in yourself during difficult times. It is not inspired by anyone or anything in particular, but just a song of hope for people.

Special thanks to Leslie Wilson of FreewateR who joined us on this track.

lyrics

Faith

When it all fell apart around you,
And there was nothing that you could do.
Well life can feel so hollow,
When bad luck is your shadow,
So hold on, keep your faith!
Chase the waves, raise your sails.

When your face is pushed into the dirt,
And the pain’s so deep that it burns not hurts.
If your mind is in a muddle,
And you think there’s no tomorrow?
Well hold on, keep your faith!
Chase the waves, raise your sails.
Chase the waves, raise your sails.

It’s too bad (it’s too bad),
That we never get to see ourselves.
And it’s so sad (it’s so sad),
If we can never understand ourselves.

When things are so unbearable,
And you feel quite incapable.
If heartache is your partner,
Well now look no further.
Just hold on, keep your faith!
Chase the waves, raise your sails.
Chase the waves, raise your sails.

A "new tradition" is how one music journalist described Stompin' on Spiders; "a radical mix of stripped-back blues and roots inspired by international events". ... more
