Why would people hate you for offering a cure?
This slow-burning spiritual blues explores a timeless paradox: the most transformative teachings often provoke the strongest resistance. Inspired by the Lotus Sutra's prophecy of persecution and the delta blues tradition of singing truth through suffering, this song is both a warning and a medicine.
Featuring raw, soulful vocals, National steel guitar, Hammond B3 organ, and gospel harmonies, "Love Till Love's the Only Sure" walks you through darkness into light—from stones thrown to birds taking flight.
A parable. A prayer. A blues song about carrying impossible love through an impossible world.
65 BPM. D minor. Your heart, broken open.

[Verse 1 - Slow, Deep] 
Well the old physician rolled into town
Said, “I got medicine, gonna pass it around.”
“Ain’t no quick fix, no sugar-sweet lie,
One drop of this truth and you’ll never die.”

(Pause, low growl)
“But I’ll warn you, child—it cuts both ways.
This cure burns bright and it don’t obey.”

[Chorus - Call and Response] 
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Tell me, tell me)
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Lord, have mercy)
‘Cause truth don’t fit the story they adore—
That old story, Lord, they’re clingin’ for sure.

[Verse 2 - Building] 
There were three healers in that town,
One cooled fever, one calmed it down.
Built their names on what they knew—
Then came the stranger sayin’, “That ain’t true.”

“Y’all been teachin’ folks to cope,” said he,
“But hope’s the only remedy.”
“The sickness ain’t what you believe—
It’s the fear you won’t release.”

[Chorus] 
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Tell me, tell me)
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Lord, have mercy)
‘Cause truth don’t fit the story they adore—
That old story, Lord, they’re clingin’ for sure.

[Bridge - Speaking Blues Style] 
Now listen here...
The headache woman, she turned pale,
Thirty years of learning felt like fail.
“If pain ain’t my mountain, what’s left of me?”
She cried to the man by the healing tree.

He said, “Sister, I ain’t here to win—
I’m just showin’ you where health begins.”
“That fear you feel’s the final wound,
My medicine works there too—real soon.”

[Verse 3 - Intensity Rising] 
He called the young ones, said, “Gather ‘round,
This truth’ll cost you—dear and profound.”
“When you carry this medicine through the town,
Those old healers’ll try to strike you down.”

“They’ll call you fool, they’ll call you liar,
But love’s the flame that lights the fire.
When the stones start flyin’—don’t you hide,
That’s the moment faith’s been tried.”

[Big Chorus - Full Voice] 
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Tell me, tell me)
Why they gonna hate you for the cure? (Lord, have mercy)
‘Cause truth don’t fit the story they adore—
That old story, Lord, they’re clingin’ for sure.

[Verse 4 - Softer, Mystical] 
“You won’t be walkin’ all alone,
Every healer’s ghost will see you home.
Guardians fierce, soft as lullabies,
Keep watch beneath the mercy skies.”

"They'll keep your heart soft when the world gets hard 
They'll stand watch while you're standing guard" 
"And that attacker throwing stones at your head? 
That's your teacher in disguise," the old man said

[Verse 5 - The Teaching] 
"See, every curse word is a chance to be kind 
Every rejection is a way to refine" 
"That headache healer with the angry face 
She carrying the medicine too, just ain't found the place"

"Deep down inside where she's afraid to look 
That's where the healing is, that's the holy book" 
"And when she finally gets a pain won't quit 
She might remember you offered something different"

[Final Chorus - Resolution, Hope] 
Let ‘em hate you for the cure—love ‘em anyway,
Let ‘em hate you for the cure—sing while you pray.
Love what they can’t endure till daybreak’s pure,
Love till love’s the only sure.

Love Till Loves the Only Sure
