CREATOR: S.O.S. for CHRIST, PRODUCER | AI IMAGE GENERATOR, CLIPCHAMP | AI VIDEO GENERATOR, and LEONARDO | AI IMAGE GENERATOR.

Purpose:
“ON THE ROYAL ROAD” was inspired by Book 2, Chapter 12 of The Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis—a classic Catholic text that’s guided countless souls on their spiritual journey. This chapter describes the “royal road” as the path of Christ: a road marked by carrying our crosses, accepting suffering, and faithfully following Jesus, not for comfort but out of love. The reason for creating this song is to encourage listeners facing trials, reminding them that this very road—embracing the cross rather than avoiding it—is the road Christ walked Himself. It’s not a path of defeat, but the true key to Paradise: through self-sacrifice and love, we’re transformed and united to God. On this royal road, pain and difficulty are not signs of abandonment but the very doorway to salvation—not just personal comfort, but the redemption of humanity’s souls. Following it is how we share in Christ’s victory, moving from dust and sorrow into the glory of eternal life. Enjoy!

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Walking this road, walking this way
Heavy the weight I carry today
But in the burden, something feels right
Finding your love through the hardest fight

Pre-Chorus
Oh, oh, oh
The road keeps calling me
Oh, oh, oh
Where you want me to be

Chorus:
On the royal road, on the royal road
Where the heart learns how to trust
On the royal road, on the royal road
Love is born from all this dust
Every step I take, every breath I make
Leads me closer to your grace
On the royal road, on the royal road
I can see your loving face

Verse 2:
Others turn away when the path gets steep
But I've learned the secrets that suffering keeps
In every tear there's a sacred gift
Through every trial my soul gets lift

Pre-Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh
The road keeps calling me
Oh, oh, oh
Where you want me to be

Chorus:
On the royal road, on the royal road
Where the heart learns how to trust
On the royal road, on the royal road
Love is born from all this dust
Every step I take, every breath I make
Leads me closer to your grace
On the royal road, on the royal road
I can see your loving face

Rap:
Started at the bottom now I'm climbing high
Every single stumble was a blessing in disguise
Pain became my teacher, showed me how to see
That the cross I'm bearing is what's setting my heart free
People think I'm crazy walking down this lane
But they don't understand the beauty in the pain
Royal road of suffering, that's where I belong
Every single heartache makes my spirit strong

Breakdown:
La la la, la la la
Walking with you
La la la, la la la
Everything's new
La la la, la la la
On this royal road
La la la, la la la
Carrying the load

Chorus:
On the royal road, on the royal road
Where the heart learns how to trust
On the royal road, on the royal road
Love is born from all this dust
Every step I take, every breath I make
Leads me closer to your grace
On the royal road, on the royal road
I can see your loving face

Outro:
On the royal road (on the royal road)
On the royal road (where love is born)
On the royal road (I can see your face)
On the royal road
La la la, la la la
Oh, oh, oh

Pax et Bonum,
S.O.S. for CHRIST
