Becky Needs More Than Positivity

“Becky Needs More Than Positivity” by Crimson Covenant. Lyrics by Toby Logsdon.
Becky’s got a minivan, four kids in the back
Soccer cleats, Goldfish, and a Bible on the dash.
She flips the dial, tries to find
A song to lift her weary mind
But all she hears is “You’re enough” and “Shine, shine, shine”
And she’s thinking, “Is this really all there is to say?”
She’s drowning in bills and prayers that feel unanswered every day

Becky needs more than positivity
More than vague hope wrapped in a melody
She’s not some cheap product, she’s a soul in need
Of grace and truth and Calvary
Don’t give her cotton candy when she’s craving bread
Give her songs with nails and thorns and blood that Jesus bled
’Cause Becky needs more—yeah, we all need more— Than positivity

She remembers hymns her grandma used to sing
With trembling hands and tears that meant something
“Rock of Ages,” “It Is Well”
Taught her how to walk through hell
But now it’s “You got this” on repeat like a spell
She’s aching for a lyric that won’t flinch at pain
A song that leads her to the cross, and doesn’t sugarcoat her shame

Becky needs more than positivity
More than synth beats and soft theology
She’s not looking for a mood, she’s looking for a King
Who walked on water and felt suffering
Don’t give her glitter when she needs the Lamb
Give her songs that make her tremble at the great I AM
’Cause Becky needs more—yeah, we all need more— Than positivity

She’s not mad, she’s just tired
Of empty praise and strange fire
She wants songs that point her home
To the throne, to the scars, to the Shepherd she’s known

Becky needs more than positivity
More than feel-good, market-driven insanity
Give her Scripture, give her songs that bleed
With gospel depth and historic creed
Don’t trade the cross for catchy lines
Don’t dim the glory just to make it shine
’Cause Becky needs more—yeah, we all need more— Than positivity

So write for the weary, sing for the lost
Point us to the Savior, whatever the cost
Becky’s still listening—we need to make it count
So turn the Gospel up… and the fluff down
