They say the twenties are the best years of your life
But I seem to be spendin' mine missin' sunsets
'Cause I'm busy on my phone observin' 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 waitin' on my downfall
Since I'm so ugly and irrelevant
I've been losin' friends as if I'm tryna get rid of them
I Googled why I'm still desperate for validation and sedatives, huh

Callin' men who don't give 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 showin' off
My self-esteem is Facetune and ring lights
My ego is conquerin' 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 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)

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

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 sinkin'
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

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

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)

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 nothin' at all now)
Brings a tear to my eye
The only thing I rely on him to do is stay declinin' my calls now

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

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, killin' overseas
Killin' ourselves, suicide
Government lies, discrimination
Hatin' ourselves
Why hope? Why keep goin'? Why try? (Why?)
Genesis one, verse three, I'll dry my eyes
The only thing which darkness cannot coexist is the 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 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

Yeah
No, no, no
I want that light, oh, ayy
(Let there be light)
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 (workin' 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 comfort)
Bring her peace (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 talkin' 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-dee
Oh, baby, light all the dark, yes
Light up the dark, Lord (oh, let there be light)
Let there be light, Lord

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do
Ooh, hey
