As a musician myself, I relate. Sometimes we work so hard to climb the ladder of success only to find it was up the wrong wall. Even after we "make it" we still feel so empty and hollow inside as before, realizing that our wildest dreams were not enough to quench the hole. People may gather around at the foot of the ladder cheering you on as you reach the top, only to find us fall off to our demise. So many people are being cancelled because of human error, but it was never our place to be in the "Godlight" in the first place. Only God can fill the gaping hole inside many of us creatives hearts, and as we let Him fill us we can shine that light to everyone else. If we ever step into the Godlight, we let ourselves and others down because it was never meant to be shown on sinful mortals anyway. In short, people should praise God not us.
@@Naham00 alright firstly; I’d searched as well and didn’t find anything, secondly; I already knew the abrahamic god is the same across the religions, though it’s pretty obvious that Eden is Christian as she covers explicitly Christian music lmao. Maybe stop being such a condescending asshole with your whole “Christ is knocking on your heart 🥺🥺🥺” and more people would actually believe in the insane convoluted bs which is called the Bible.
This whole song is my anthem on leaving behind mormonism, republicanism, etc. and feeling the friction between me and my friends who are still very much in those camps.
I just found this song 2 days ago. I’ve had it on repeat ever since. This song hits every single feeling I’ve ever needed to feel. Has officially eclipsed my favorite music of all time
When i listen to your songs i realize Ive never had an original thought EVER. how do you just take my feelings and put them into words all the time???? I'm so mad at how good this is ugh-
This song is amazing! It gives me goosebumps every time. I just discovered you yesterday, and I am so disappointed I didnt discover your music sooner. I showed my best friend and my mom, now all three of us are going through your songs. Made three new fans today!
I remember the first time he sang this on an instagram live and I'm SO stoked that it's out as a full production. So proud of you Noah and can't wait to see you live in Atlanta (and not just on insta) 💚💚💚
This is a song I can listen to 10 times in a row and I’ll still push repeat. 🔁 Noah Kahan, thank YOU for blessing this world with your music. I am more than thrilled for the release of your new album. EVERYONE GO PRE-SAVE I WAS / I AM 💛
I don't know how to explain but you are more than a simple singer. You are much more than that. Your lyrics, your voice and everything it's amazing I can't explain.
There's no way out of an angry crowd Without steppin' on some toes They'll scream your name 'til the lights go out Then they'll feed you to the wolves It's hard to say who you'll be When they let those big red curtains close You know this 'cause you told me so I bet you forgot, black heels in the summertime Dad's bad cookin', though you'd be polite Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize You pulled me aside and you said To know me is to hate me Is to hate what I've become It's to watch me as I'm fallin' From that ladder's last rung It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in I'm not the way I was I'm not the way I was Were you freed within, did you leave your skin? Are you tethered in your doubt? Have you breathed it in 'til it's medicine That you cannot live without? 'Cause you came back home a fuckin' alien And we're stuck here on the ground Call your mom back, kid Before the high comes down 'Cause you forgot Black heels in the summertime Dirt road smoking on a Friday night Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize You pulled me aside and you said To know me is to hate me Is to hate what I've become It's to watch me as I'm fallin' From that ladder's last rung It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in I'm not the way I was I'm not the way I was But to feel it, to see it The look in all their eyes Is to breathe in, to be in The good grace of that Godlight It's to have it in your hands The one thing you wanted all your life It's all mine It's a hole I can't fill It's a curse I can't break And I gave my soul to it And I cannot be reclaimed I was younger then I was younger then I was young To know me is to hate me Is to hate what I've become It's to watch me as I'm fallin' From that ladder's last rung It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in I'm not the way I was I'm not the way I was But to feel it, to see it The look in all their eyes Is to breathe in, to be in The good grace of that Godlight It's to have it in your hands The one thing you wanted all your life It's all mine And to feel it, to see it The look in all your eyes Is to breathe in, to be in The good grace of this Godlight It's to have it in your hands It's the one thing I wanted all my life It's all mine
I thought initially that he was talking about a sister who got kinda famous, and then he went and got really famous. But songfacts says that he's singing to an older version of himself. Makes sense. What a beautifully executed original concept.
Wow, how is it that Noah Kahan invented perfection with this song? I’ve never been so moved by a song the instant it started playing. That second verse though 💙💙💙
NOAH KAHAN CON QUESTA CANZONE SI GUARDA DENTRO DI SÈ COME IL SUCCESSO L'HA CAMBIATO È una canzone Straordinaria che approfondisce le lotte per l'identità personale, la fama e la ricerca dei SOGNI ' Noah Kahan nelle sue canzoni ha la capacità di catturare emozioni complesse, Geniale come artista e narratore"👏👏👏
I'm crying so much with this masterpiece. I changed my whole life to achieve my goal but after I did I realized that it turned me to a stranger and it's so HARD to keep up with the people who knew the younger me
this song is amazing - he manages to create a very specific sentiment and portray a story unique to him yet communicate it perfectly through his incredible songs.
God light is strong everywhere. I feel him working in so many lives. God bless and amen. I am finally happy and I have not said that in years and I like myself I love him and the rest you know who you are you and that one person I hope lol😂😂😂 I’m ready. I’m waiting. I’m ready. I felt Breathe of life in me. I’m excited to live again. It’s real. It’s very real.
It takes an honest man to not only see but admit to his own faults. It takes a man of humility to change and do something about it. I hope you have the chance to repair those relationships one day. Beautiful song, loving it NK. 💚✌️
HIS MUSIC IS AMAZING - I have not been disappointed with a single song. I hope everyone has the blessing of hearing his songs and how they make you feel.
Bruh this caught me by surprise I was waiting for Dominoes by Anson Seabra and got the notification I was torn but I’m gonna listen to it now. Edit: BOP AS USUAL! Love it
SAME!!! I just listened to Dominoes and then this popped up in my recommandations and I saw it was posted the same time as Dominoes and I was like : What is this blessing? I don't deserve it :))
One of my fave artists. Hasn't made a bad song yet. And I know that time won't ever come. Keep up the good work Noah. I hope to see you in concert some day.
How are these lyrics so good???? im like 30 seconds into the vid and I feel like crying... they are so beautiful TT I'm so grateful that I found his music last year... every song is so beautiful I don't have words :')))
having the ticket suggestion pop up for my favorite venue on one of your vids of arguably your best song is such an amazing feeling. cant wait to see you!!! and hear godlight live!!!!!
An unexpected but VERY WELCOME drop
My first time hearing him. Such a gift!

Wow, this.✊🏻
Wow i needed to read this.
agree!
God doesn’t exist + cope + that’s not even what the song’s about, Noah isn’t even Christian lmao 🥴🤧

damn he's a top tier lyricist
For sure
This whole song is my anthem on leaving behind mormonism, republicanism, etc. and feeling the friction between me and my friends who are still very much in those camps.
i swear to god he never fails to make me cry tf
Right??
🥺”I’m not the way I was”
But I’m glad I got to experience you all my life.
Can't believe I'm here so early, im so proud of this achievement and SO PROUD OF NOAH KAHAN
Buddha you are light . You shine so bright . God chose you . This is for you Solider . Word
Can’t he make bad songs?😂 I’ve been his fan since 4 years and every song I listen is fucking amazing!
AGREED!!
Cant agree more
I’ve been a fan for 2 years and I still can’t pick a favorite but this might be it. It’s soooo good
Same Here I fell in love 4 year's ago 🎼🌈
I was about to comment the same thing. I always play his new songs like "hm, will this one be good too?"
like i needed to ask. They're always amazing
Why does this masterpiece only have 1.4 M views? 😢
The most underrated artists tends to produce the greatest set of music
Been listening to you for the past 4 years, can’t wait to see you live in Salt Lake City!
when i'm listening to a Noah Kahan song for the first time there are only two options: crying or goosebumps. Never a bad song
This is and will always be my favorite song of yours ✨💖 but i love all of your music.. it brings such peace to my soul. Thank you eternally Noah 🙏🫶
I just found this song 2 days ago. I’ve had it on repeat ever since. This song hits every single feeling I’ve ever needed to feel. Has officially eclipsed my favorite music of all time
I just found it a few weeks ago. Masterpiece!
I love this. The build up throughout the song is amazing, and that bridge is so different but absolutely incredible
What an amazing feeling when that light shines in. All glory to the Lord Above
This man could sing the same word over and over for an entire song and I’d fall in love with it
Thank you. God bless you
i have nothing to say besides stating that this song it so, so beautiful. to me, its that laughing and anxiety feeling that wraps you in a hug
When i listen to your songs i realize Ive never had an original thought EVER. how do you just take my feelings and put them into words all the time???? I'm so mad at how good this is ugh-
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! 😍 😍😍 😍 😍 🎶🎶 🎶
Every song Noah Kahan makes is moving... he honestly can't write a bad song and I am grateful
This song is amazing! It gives me goosebumps every time. I just discovered you yesterday, and I am so disappointed I didnt discover your music sooner. I showed my best friend and my mom, now all three of us are going through your songs. Made three new fans today!

The other day I heard this on the radio, I have never been so happy! Soo proud of you Noah!!!!
which radio station?
I think it was Sirius xm
This is a song I can listen to 10 times in a row and I’ll still push repeat. 🔁

I love you faye, youre perfect in every way. Im glad that you chose me, love me, and I am honestly so lucky to have you.
NOAH THIS IS A MASTERPIECE
So beautiful, really amazing,I also do music too with little Subscribers to share it with,if you have some free time, check it out
Yes
REAL
There's no way out of an angry crowd
Without steppin' on some toes
They'll scream your name 'til the lights go out
Then they'll feed you to the wolves
It's hard to say who you'll be
When they let those big red curtains close
You know this 'cause you told me so
I bet you forgot, black heels in the summertime
Dad's bad cookin', though you'd be polite
Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize
You pulled me aside and you said
To know me is to hate me
Is to hate what I've become
It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
From that ladder's last rung
It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
I'm not the way I was
I'm not the way I was
Were you freed within, did you leave your skin?
Are you tethered in your doubt?
Have you breathed it in 'til it's medicine
That you cannot live without?
'Cause you came back home a fuckin' alien
And we're stuck here on the ground
Call your mom back, kid
Before the high comes down
'Cause you forgot
Black heels in the summertime
Dirt road smoking on a Friday night
Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize
You pulled me aside and you said
To know me is to hate me
Is to hate what I've become
It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
From that ladder's last rung
It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
I'm not the way I was
I'm not the way I was
But to feel it, to see it
The look in all their eyes
Is to breathe in, to be in
The good grace of that Godlight
It's to have it in your hands
The one thing you wanted all your life
It's all mine
It's a hole I can't fill
It's a curse I can't break
And I gave my soul to it
And I cannot be reclaimed
I was younger then
I was younger then
I was young
To know me is to hate me
Is to hate what I've become
It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
From that ladder's last rung
It's to feel bad, like a secret you can't keep in
I'm not the way I was
I'm not the way I was
But to feel it, to see it
The look in all their eyes
Is to breathe in, to be in
The good grace of that Godlight
It's to have it in your hands
The one thing you wanted all your life
It's all mine
And to feel it, to see it
The look in all your eyes
Is to breathe in, to be in
The good grace of this Godlight
It's to have it in your hands
It's the one thing I wanted all my life
It's all mine
Noah Kahan.... its, its always your lyrics.... it pierces thru every listener's hearts -- in one way or another...
Impeccable artistry with this one
I am so excited about this song. Noah's art is, as always, beautiful, relatable, and heartwrenching.
so frickin proud of u noah this is incredible
He's such an inspiration,I also do music too with little Subscribers to share it with,if you have some free time, check it out
Is it just me who thinks Noah writes for me. Every song relates with what I'm currently experiencing or feeling coincidentally. 😥😥
notice how every song from him is amazing?
I did in fact notice that.
We're so lucky to be alive at the same time as Noah Kahan.
Another beyond better song. Loved it. This man is amazing he deserves more recognition
So far this album's been great. A great mix of more mainstream pop, and that unique Noah Kahan mix from the soul.
I thought initially that he was talking about a sister who got kinda famous, and then he went and got really famous. But songfacts says that he's singing to an older version of himself. Makes sense. What a beautifully executed original concept.
Such a beautiful song. AND THE LYRICS OMG SOOO PERFECT
your voice gives me the chills (comfort), I love your voice and I'm jealous of it.
😂❤❤❤❤❤😢😅😊thank you noah. I've suffered from mental illness my whole life....
This song deserves another 2 million plays. Incredible
when they say it's music to my ears, IT'S THIS. THIS HITS RIGHT IN THE GUTS.
Wow, how is it that Noah Kahan invented perfection with this song? I’ve never been so moved by a song the instant it started playing. That second verse though 💙💙💙

I waited a whole month for this to come out. I’m crying I’m so happy right now.
Noah and his music are art.
You know it's going to be another masterpiece before the song even starts.
Here I sit eating breakfast in peace and bawling my eyes out - what a great song
