A wonderful instrumental! I love it, thank you!
They say the twenties are the best years of your life
But I seem to be spending mine missing sunsets
'Cause I'm busy on my phone observing everyone else
How I compare and obsess
Just me, my phone, and these walls
And I've been sober for some months
But I can feel the demons waiting on my downfall
Since I'm so ugly and irrelevant
I've been losing friends as if I'm tryna get rid of them
I Googled why I'm still desperatе for validation and sedatives, huh
Callin' men who don't givе a fuck about me
Then when my mother called I pretend I'm busy
I'm tryna end up anywhere except from where I been
Curtains closed, bed bound, amphetamines
Mmm, and this devil on my shoulder, man, I'm tryna to shake him off
My ex is on my timeline, it's as if he's showing off
My self-esteem is Facetune and ring lights
My ego is conquering new heights
Yeah
No, no, no
I want that light, oh, ayy
(Let there be light)
Oh, let there be, oh
Oh, that light
[Chorus]
See, I want that light in my house (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my car (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my pain (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light when it's dark, dark, da-dark
Oh, no, let there be (Oh, let there be)
Oh, let there be (Oh, let there be)
Oh, li-light
No, no, no, no, no, no, let there, let there be light
[Verse]
For all the fathers and the teachers (Working hard in the night)
For all the builders and the cleaners (I pray, "Let there be light")
Oh, for all the farmers and the chefs and the train-drivers, yes
The nurses and the doctors, God bless the NHS
Let the pay rise, let the pay rise up
Let there be li-li-li-light
For all those overworked and underpaid and dreams of somewhere out of sight
Let there be light
Single mother, all alone (She's all alone)
The baby's cryin'
And she's cryin' tears too, to her sister on the phone
Bring her comfort, bring her peace
I pray Lord, please, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Da-da-doo, da-doo, da-doo, da-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
(Now that's what I'm talking about)
Oh, let there be
Lord, let there be
Don't we all need a little?
[Chorus]
See, I want that, that light in my house, (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my car, yeah (Oh, let there be light)
I want that light in my dreams, yeah, doo-de
Oh, baby, light all the dark, yes
Light up the dark, Lord (Oh, let there be light)
Let there be light, Lord
[Outro]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do
Ooh, hey
