Hello beautiful people of the Hive Music Festival!
This write-up was assisted by ChatGPT in order to enhance its structure and flow, but everything — the song, the voice, and the performance — belongs entirely to me. I’m excited to share my original song titled “Do I Really Deserve?” for Week 159, Round 3 of this amazing music festival.
Before anything else, please kindly manage my voice in this performance. I lost my voice yesterday after singing for about an hour and thirty minutes during a powerful worship service. Despite the strain, I couldn’t hold back my desire to share this piece because it’s not just a song — it’s a heartfelt cry and reflection on God’s overwhelming love. So, even though my voice might sound a bit cracked or low in certain parts, I believe the message will still reach your heart.
The inspiration behind “Do I Really Deserve?” came from a place of deep reflection. I began to ponder on the endless mercy and grace of God. Many times, when I look at my imperfections, my weaknesses, and the times I’ve fallen short, I just wonder, “Why does God still love me this much?” The chorus simply echoes that amazement — “Do I really deserve this, your love? Am I worthy of it? You love me as if I’m the only one in this world.” It’s a personal moment of gratitude and awe toward a God who loves beyond reason.
This song is a reminder that no matter how unworthy we may feel, God’s love is still unconditional and unshakable. It’s not based on our performance but on His nature — love itself. I hope this piece stirs your heart the same way it stirred mine while writing and singing it.
Special appreciation goes to the Hive Music Festival team, community leaders, and curators for continuously creating this wonderful platform that gives musicians like me the opportunity to express our gifts and connect with beautiful souls around the world.
Thank you all for listening — and once again, please manage my voice this week! 💛🎶
