Nigerian Singer-songwriter Jlyricz releases his brand new single “Inside” along with its beautiful video. Inside is a Christian Electronic banger with a tinge of Afropop.
Jlyricz has been on a prolific run through 2021; Inside makes it single number 12 for 2021 and it is another beautiful offering. The song which deals with the vulnerability of a Christian as he admits his vices and while seeking to be filled with the Holy Spirit so He does not derail from His Christian walk with God. The song is written by Jlyricz and produced by long-term collaborator E-Mex.
“I wrote Inside at a point in my life when I was so eager to “blow”, I was homeless and I needed funds to get me an apartment and a decent life. Music was all I had and I figured it had to come from there; I just had to blow even though I had no concrete budget to push my songs. I couldn’t even afford to rent a small apartment. After a while I started questioning my motive for saving God; is it because of what He would give or because I truly loved and revered Him as my personal savior. If I get what I need, will I still serve Him with everything I had? Those thoughts birthed the song “Inside”.
The single’s video is a dashing creative masterpiece with an intricate story of the song woven in it. The video is directed by Bishopwhythe Visuals.

Flashes of light
Filling up the place
And they shine so bright that I’m blind
You are my light
And you led me here
Now I stand so far you’re behind
I don’t wanna lose you
I never ever wanna see that day
When my dreams come true
And I’ll be here in the dark so
Fill me up inside
Oh God
Fill me up inside
Oh God
So I’ll never turn back
On You Lord
So I’ll never turn my back
On You on You Lord God
Flashes of brilliance
Make me feel too cool
I just wanna show the world
All you’ve put in me
But I’m losing hold of me
I’m losing sight of you
I’m losing all of this
I’m going out (of) my mind
Everything now look so bleak
Everything don’t feel so sweet
But I
Press pause
Take a sec
Think back
Here I’m now
I’m living so so free
I’m living all for Him
My life is not for me
His words inside of me say I I I
I’m His son
Fill me up in fill me fill me fill me
Fill me up inside
Oh God
Fill me up inside
Oh God
So I’ll never turn back
On You Lord
So I’ll never turn my back
On You on You Lord God
