Sunset Coming On
Mali Music Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waking up
It's been too long
Feel the warmth
Of the sun
On my face
Tell my face
Where I've been going wrong

This road goes on and on
Sunset coming on
Sunset coming on
Oh Lord

But the sunrise we'll see
But the sunrise we'll see again

Sunset coming on
Sunset coming on
Oh Lord

But the sunrise we'll see
But the sunrise we'll see again

on Deep Blood Red

I believe The love Mail is referring to is his love for God. The deep blood Red is matching the blood sacrificed for him. Wanting to be God’s favorite. To show his emotions and how he feels. For years people thought Bebe & Cece’s love song was to each other but it was to God and they are siblings.
