I Never Knew You

William Somero - Gospel

Released May 16, 2025



Grok Review

A gripping Christian Rap track exploring the sobering reality of false faith. The song narrates a soul at heaven’s gate, rejected despite outward works like prophesying and healing. With raw emotion, it reveals the futility of deeds without a heart aligned with God’s will. The intense chorus echoes Christ’s words, I never knew you, driving home the dread of eternal separation. The bridge emphasizes salvation through faith alone, culminating in a haunting outro of regret and fading hope.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 
Yo, I stood at the gate, thought I was straight
Called Lord, Lord, but I sealed my fate
Prophesied in Your name, cast demons out
Thought my works would show what I’m about

[Pre-Chorus] 
But You looked through me, saw my disguise
No faith in my heart just a stack of lies

[Chorus]
I never knew you, That’s what You said
Words cut deep, filled my soul with dread
Door’s shut tight, no way to get in
Lost in the dark, payin’ for my sins

[Verse 2] 
Thought I was good, did all the right things
Healed in Your name, thought it’d grow wings
But You said, Nah, your heart’s too cold
No will of God, just stories told

[Pre-Chorus] 
I knocked and I begged, Lord, hear my plea!
But You turned away, said, You ain’t with Me

[Chorus]
I never knew you, That’s what You said
Words cut deep, filled my soul with dread
Door’s shut tight, no way to get in
Lost in the dark, payin’ for my sins

[Bridge] 
No works can save No deeds can mend
Only God’s will brings life without end
I built my life on a shaky frame
Now I’m out here, carryin’ my shame

[Outro]
I never knew you
Yeah, I never knew

I never knew you
Yeah, I never knew

[Fade to End]
