The Story Behind This Song

From Pain to Praise

"Not a Drill" emerged from pain. Real, raw, honest pain. But as I brought my brokenness before God, He began to turn my mourning into dancing.

What started as a lament became a declaration of praise. The journey from the first verse to the last mirrors my own journey from despair to hope.

I share it with you believing that God can do the same in your life.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Not a Drill, Not a Drill
Words that echo in my soul
Not a Drill, Not a Drill
Making broken pieces whole

[Chorus]
This is my trials
This is my perseverance
Not a Drill lifting high
Every single day

[Verse 2]
Through the valleys, through the storms
Your love keeps me safe and warm
In the silence, in the noise
I still hear Your gentle voice

[Bridge]
Not a Drill
A melody of grace
Not a Drill
Meeting You face to face
