Elvinthedon – Father’s Queries [+ Lyrics]

Elvinthedon, a fast-rising vocal act and melodic storyteller, makes a bold return to the musical spotlight with a poignant and emotionally resonant single, “Father’s Queries.”

This soul-stirring drop arrives at a time when Afro-fusion fans, street-conscious dreamers, and introspective listeners are seeking honest, vulnerable records that explore familial friction, unvoiced expectations, and the silent grief of growing apart. Elvinthedon, who has honed himself with a textured delivery and anchored penmanship here on the circuit, turns his lens to the delicate dynamics of fathers and sons. “Father’s Queries” captures the silent heartbreak of broken ties and the questions that remain when a child leaves the home that raised him.

The songwriting of “Father’s Queries” is about unspoken disappointment, difficult expectations from one generation to the next, and the weight of fatherly questions that were never meant to be asked. He begins with an honest song about distance and cold silence. And a song of the pain of severed ties and a mirror held to family duties and personal paths. He takes personal heartbreak and turns it into a power anthem that comforts the world’s dreamers and healing families with stories we can relate to and words that cut deep.

Everything coalesces on this cut for a full listening experience that is deeply satisfying. The moody, subtle production complements his expressive vocal energy step-for-step throughout the entire runtime.

This meditative track needs to be added today to your late-night meditation, quiet drive, and emotional healing playlists today! Listen to “Father’s Queries” on all your preferred digital music platforms now!

Elvinthedon Father’s Queries Lyrics:
Every father has questions he never planned to ask
When a son walks away from the house that built him
The silence gets loud
Everywhere turns cold
And disappointment learns how to pray

So He asked
“Son, is it money is it the power?”
Conversations we having in every hour
My future life was always ideal with all the dollar
“You been chasing a mirage for your appeal!” He shouted louder
Hold up
Uh
And I did reason this harder
Fresh blood setting my eyes on my own color
“Mama listen this… I wrote me a poem” response was sour
She was stirring mixing a pot of flour she threw I cower
Oh
Pursuing for love “Who got that love for me?”
End of the game i pray is mad funny
“Just look at your peers” not ‘nother word from me
But then spiral and now I feral ‘fore my lycanthropy
Had a note I wrote all my little quote
In the past had anxiety but got the antidote
Save my prayers to the almighty he had me on the go
Had a lotta game,my mates saw me as a mini goat
Growing up religious everything was upon fears
Can do this can do that, we hiding in lone lairs
Family had a strict rule “Jehovah is gon see us”
Music is not an option, couldn’t settle for Hamm’s beer
Atonsu boy heavy on the “vim” with no paranoia
Yegyina mu tawee kuta akukuduro sanso kuta aura
I know i’m on a mission and the mission is undercover
Never lagging till we make our name print now and forever
We’ll make it happen
The Don

I hear you Dad
I remember all the back and forth
Some of the things you said carries weight I won’t lie
The road I chose ain’t clean and the nights gets heavy out here
But don’t mistake the noise for corruption or the struggles for a loss of values
I’m not chasing bad people or bad deeds, I’m chasing a sound that won’t let me sleep
The streets taught me pressure, not purpose
But you know what? Music gave me that
So don’t be disappointed

“Do you love Jehovah?
Do you wanna follow the world till is you over?
Getting older, boy who made you think this music is gon hold ya?
Are you sober? Your mind on a stroller?
Who be thinking for ya?
You throwing the Bible away and allowing the devil to control ya?
Your life cost a cola
If you leave i’ll shun ya
Don’t you love your mother
Don’t you hurt your papa
We are meant together
Music is not your savior
You the Devil’s soldier”
And then I told my father “Sorry Papa, I just found a lotta peace within this chapter”
Man!

And maybe one day you’ll hear my voice on the radio
And recognize the boy you raised in every word
Same heart, different road… same prayers, longer distance
I didn’t leave to disappear
I left so I could return as something better
Until then, keep the door unlocked
Your son is still on his way home
The Don

Dear Lord Jehovah, I’m talking to You raw, no disguise in my speech
World tried to grab my soul, still couldn’t reach
I been tested by hunger, tempted by sin
But I ain’t lose my heart, I just learned how to win
Protect me from the pack when I’m out in the rain
Keep me focused on purpose, not addicted to pain
If I stumble, pick me up, let my scars testify
I’m still your kid even when I’m asking why
Bless my grind, bless my breath, bless the road that I roam
Let my wins break the curse, let my name make it home
And when it’s all said and done, let the truth be shown
I never turned my back on You
I was just tryna find my throne
Through Jesus Christ I pray, Amen
