"The Bottom of Myself" by Mike Janzen is a spiritual journey with an Americana-pop groove. The song invites you into a space where the dark moments of life meet light.
Instead of running away from the pain, Janzen sings: "sometimes you gotta wait." Why? Because at the end of yourself is God. Your weakness is where His strength begins. "When the clocks tickin twelve it's true // At the bottom of myself is You," this is where truth emerges. You might be trying to find your way home, but real peace comes when you stop striving.
"Hard times when you're living in a memory // Life's great but your face has changed // A silhouette on the past that now is fading // Turn around as you turn the page"
Are you ready to embrace God even in hard times? Janzen reminds us life's great even when your face has changed. So, don't let "the foggy norm" define your future.
May this song remind you that God awaits at the bottom. You are not alone in the well… Just reach out to Him! Press play and find your place to stand.

Background:
Featuring some great players (Joey Landreth - The Landreth Bros.) this catchy song combines Americana roots with Pop to create a memorable groovin' song about living in the present and finding faith at the bottom of life's circumstances.
The song explores hitting rock bottom and losing one's way in life's darkness. It conveys that when self-effort fails and strength ends, God is found. It is about surrendering control and discovering faith precisely when circumstances feel most desperate.
