RAYE - Genesis. (en) Lyrics
by RentAnAdviser.com
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
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 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)
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
Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh, uh-uh), yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Uh, uh-uh)
(Let there be light)
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"
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
Yeah (Uh-uh), yeah (Uh,
yeah-yeah), yeah
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
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
The devil works hard, like my liver
When it's too dark to see
(Let there be light)
Let there be light
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
Hear my cry, would you hear my cry?
Yeah
No, no, no
I want that light, oh, ayy
Oh, let there be, oh
Oh, that light
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
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
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
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?
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
