SONG MEANING

Als Ik God Was ("If I Were God") is Froukje’s witty day-dream about swapping places with the divine. Around a dinner table filled with imperfect food and even more imperfect people, she thanks both God and herself for everything that is broken, messy, and still somehow wonderful. The verses juggle gratitude with frustration: she owns up to her mistakes, jokes that nobody laughs at her jokes, and wonders if God might be lonely too.

When the soaring chorus hits, Froukje lays out her holy wish-list: if she were in charge, she would proudly tell every misfit they belong, patch up a leaky system, and sit at that table with us instead of watching from afar. The song is a playful yet moving manifesto about empathy, accountability, and daring to imagine a kinder world—inviting listeners to discover a little bit of that courageous, compassionate “God” within themselves.
