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 desperate for validation and sedatives huh
Callin' men who don't give a 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 ************
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 we all need some
Da-da-da da-da-da there'll be light
I 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 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
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
