[Part I]

[Verse]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

I think I need some (Think I need some)

Do you need some? (Do you need some?)

Don't we all need some (We all need some)

Light? (Let there be light)

Da-da-da, da-da-da (There'll be light)

I think I need some (Think I need some)

I lied, I don't think I (Know I need some)

I need some light (Some sweet sunshine)

To feel alright (Please, let there be light)

[Part II]

[Chorus]

I see a sad little sinner in the mirror

The devil works hard like my liver

I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die

A fistful of pills, you're a nobody

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh, uh-uh), yeah

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Uh, uh-uh)

(Let there be light)

Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh, uh-uh), yeah

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

[Verse 1]

Bang-bang, that's depression at the door again

You know he'll beat the door down till you let him in the room

Since you are already acquainted, you skip the foreplay

He grips you at the neck as you prepare to be screwed

You try to muster a flare, to tell somebody you're sinking

But anxiety is an index finger pressed to your lips

A whiskey bottle, it whispers, since you're already bitter

A cocktail fit for a quitter, "Come here and give me a kiss"

[Chorus]

I see a sad little sinner in the mirror

The devil works hard like my liver

I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die

A fistful of pills and rivers in my eyes

I've got nothin' left to lose, dear God in the sky

Hear my cry, hear my cry

When it's too dark to see

Let there be light, let there be light

Let there be light

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh, yeah-yeah), yeah

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Uh, uh-uh)

(Let there be light)

Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh, yeah-yeah), yeah

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Uh, uh-uh)

[Verse 2]

Yes, I edit my pictures to make my waist look slimmer

And make my ass look bigger so that I'm someone you aspire to

Let me in your algorithm, please

I know I'll only be important if I'm someone you would like, follow, share, and subscribe to

If you're thirsty like me (Like me)

Mix some pity with some self-hate

Stir it up, then add twelve ounces of rosé

That's how I make the glass half-empty and drink it down

[Verse 3]

Beneath the curse words and the insecurities

Here lies a sorry little soul

And she doesn't even know what to pray for

Still just a heart-broke bitch

But I traded the back of the nightclub, I did, for the bathroom floor

I wish I could call my ex

He would know just what to say (He don't say nothing at all now)

Brings a tear to my eye

The only thing I rely on him to do is stay declining my calls now

[Chorus]

I see a sad little sinner in the mirror

The devil works hard, like my liver

I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die

A fistful of pills and rivers in my eyes

I've got nothin' left to lose, dear God in the sky

Hear my cry, hear my cry

When it's too dark to see (Let there be light)

Let there be light, let there be light

Let there be light

[Bridge]

Little girls that have no self-esteem

A little boy without a father tries to find him in the streets

A girl I used to walk to school with

Took her life, now rest in peace (Rest in peace)

Fake democracy, killing overseas

Killing ourselves, suicide

Government lies, discrimination

Hating ourselves

Why hope? Why keep going? Why try? (Why?)

Genesis one, verse three, I'll dry my eyes

The only thing which darkness cannot coexist is the light

[Chorus]

I see a sad little sinner in the mirror

The devil works hard like my liver

I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die

A fistful of pills and rivers in my eyes

I've got nothin' left to lose, dear God in the sky

Hear my cry, would you hear my cry?

When it's too dark to see (Let there be light)

Let there be light, let there be light

Let there be light

[Part III]

[Intro]

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
