Is That God In My Head?

A song about intuition, anxiety, faith, and trying to tell the difference between guidance and fear.

Is That God In My Head? started with a question I’ve asked myself more times than I probably should admit.

Sometimes a thought or feeling arrives so strongly that it feels like a sign. You wonder if it’s instinct, conscience, faith, warning, or some deeper truth trying to get your attention. Other times, it’s just anxiety with good lighting.

That confusion is what the song lives inside.

I grew up around old hymns, family silences and people who believed that life could speak to you if you knew how to listen. I also grew up as an overthinker, which makes the whole thing complicated. When you have a noisy mind, not every voice deserves to be treated like prophecy.

The song is partly serious and partly darkly funny. The title sounds almost casual, but the feeling behind it is intense. It’s about wanting guidance and not trusting yourself enough to know whether you’ve found it.

I don’t think the song gives a neat answer, because I don’t have one. It sits in that strange space between prayer and panic, where you’re trying to work out whether something is calling you forward or just scaring you still.
