Genesis, pt. ii Lyrics by RAYE
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 fist full 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 until you let him in the room
Since you’re are already acquainted, you skip the foreplay
He grips you in the neck ’cause you’re prepared to be screwed
You try to must 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 better”
I can’t tell fit for a quid, “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 fist full of pills and rivers in my eyes
I’ve 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, let there be
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 and add twelve ounces of rosé
This is how I’ll make the glass half empty and drain it down
With clothe’s wide and the insecurity is here
That’s the story that was sold
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
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 fist full of pills and rivers in my eyes
I’ve 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, let there be
Let there be light
Little girls that have no self-steem (Yeah, yeah)
A little boy without a father tries to find ’em in the streets (Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)
You’re gonna to walk to school (Yeah, yeah)
He took her life, now rest in peace (Rest in peace)
Fake democracy, killing ’em for seats (Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)
Killing ourselves, suicide (Yeah, yeah)
Government lies, discrimination
Hating ourselves (Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)
Why, oh, why keep going? Why try? (Why?)
Genesis one, verse three, I’ll dry my eyes (Yeah, yeah)
The only thing which darkness cannot co-exist in is the light
I see a sad little sinner in the mirror
The devil works hard (Oh) like my liver
I don’t wanna be alive, but I don’t wanna die
A fist full of pills and rivers in my eyes
I’ve 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, let there be
Let there be light
