Mercy is the latest single from abijah—played on the piano in his parents’ living room, recorded close enough to catch the creaks of the wood and the sound of the keys pressing.Mercy embodies a moment of existential recognition. The song knowingly carries the tension between despair and faith—its lyrics repeat like a liturgy: "have mercy on me." A phrase that is both an acceptance of powerlessness and a plea for grace.
There’s no grand statement, no resolution—just an intentional moment of stillness. On Mercy, abijah doesn’t try to escape the tension; he creates from within it.
Out April 4, 2025 on all streaming platforms.
