A Pop Sinner's Prayer is a song recorded by American artist Stephanie Fierce for her tenth studio album, Royal Sex Stories. The song will be released as a promotional single for fans to enjoy on 11/13/2020. Serving as the first and opening track on the album, 'A Pop Sinner's Prayer' was written by Stephanie Fierce in efforts to tie in with the theme of the visual album. The song was also written in tribute to a fictional theme Fierce came up with for her second studio album "Diary of a Pop Sinner". Fierce was joined by producers Patrick Ray Leonard and Stephen Bray to help compose the track with an orchestra and live band. The song also features the choir group 'The Black Doves'; who previously worked with Fierce on her fourth and fifth studio album "Newborn" and "Free". Throughout the song prior to the bridge, they serve as back up vocalists; post-bridge they serve as the main vocalist with Stephanie Fierce as they switch off singing high notes. A guitar riff and 80's inspired drums are heard throughout the song contributing to its rock sound. The song is a depiction of Fierce as a young teenager praying to become a famous pop star. .
"This song was written with the short film in mind because it's the premise of the story I'm telling. Because this is a visual album after all I did want the music to match the storytelling in the film. You have a young woman whose only wish is to become a superstar, so in her prayers, at night she just prays that it will happen to her. It's kind of taking it back to those innocent youthful years when I had a desire to be famous. I wanted to start there because we all kind of forget from time to time that at one point in our lives we all wanted this and I think it's really important to look back and showcase that side of me.
As far as the sound I really wanted something that not only sounded heavenly but still had some rock-edge to it. It gives you a late 80's pop-rock vibe and kind of reminds me of the approach I took when I made "Pop Sinner" in Diary of a Pop Sinner but it's a bit more evolved in the essence of how I sing and also this song contains elements from "The Black Doves" a choir group who sang on my fourth and fifth studio albums. In this song they embody and represent the angels in the imaginary heaven Stephanie Rios created when she was young." - [Message from; Stephanie Fierce]
A Pop Sinner's Prayer (Official Lyrics)
With a performance from The Black Doves
[With The Black Doves as back up vocalists]
"Living life in misery everyone fighting for a throne
fighting for a chance in fame but then you feel all alone...
In it for the fame, she does her little prayer
she begs and pleads she's close she swears
like a lotus flower I will build my power
It's just a pop sinner's prayer
time to rejoice, so no more crying
remain poised through the noise
I know you're trying
an angel in disguise,
comes down at night
feel like sobbing
midnight sky, now I rise
now I fly free
In it for the fame, she does her little prayer
she begs and pleads she's close she swears
like a lotus flower, I will build my power
It's just a pop sinner's prayer
Lost in the clouds; with an endless journey
angels watch over you now no need to worry
In the new york lights, or the LA concrete stars
I know I'll make it, and I'm going far
now watch me rejoice,
Like a choir,
hear me sing
In it for the fame, she does her little prayer
she begs and pleads she's close she swears
like a lotus flower, I will build my power
It's just a pop sinner's prayer
In it for the fame, she does her little prayer
she begs and pleads she's close she swears
like a lotus flower, I will build my power
It's just a pop sinner's prayer
Oh, oh, oh,
Living life in misery everyone fighting for a throne
fighting for a chance in fame but then you feel all alone...
[With The Black Doves as main vocalists]
In it for the fame, she does her little prayer
she begs and pleads she's close she swears
like a lotus flower, I will build my power
It's just a pop sinner's prayer
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me. Just like a prayer,
I'll take you there. It's like a dream to me.
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me. Just like a prayer,
I'll take you there. It's like a dream to me.
Just like a pop sinner's prayer, no one compares
as she begs and pleads; no one compares
she knows she'll make it there
Just like a pop sinner's prayer, no one compares
as she begs and pleads; no one compares
she knows she'll make it there
Just like a pop sinner's prayer,
there's no one out there that compares"
