The Right Thing
Moby Bassey Inyang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gonna leave this all
Reach off to heaven
Lights flying 'cross my eyes
Oh it seems like
This could be mine
It's time I do the right thing
Oh baby, baby, gonna do the right thing
One day I know
Gonna leave this all alone
Gonna leave this
Leave this all for heaven
One day I know
Gonna leave this all alone
Gonna leave this
Leave this all for heaven
Oh no
No life to live
Gonna leave this
Leave this all for heaven
One day I know
Gonna leave it all and go
Gonna leave this
Leave this all for heaven
Oh Lord, save me,
I wanna do the right thing
Oh it's time
Oh Lord, save me
I wanna do the right thing
Oh it's time
Oh Lord, save me,
I wanna do the right thing
Oh it's time
Oh Lord, save me,
I wanna do the right thing
I wanna do the right thing
Oh-oh, it's time
I wanna do the right thing
Mmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmm
The lyrics of Moby Bassey Inyang's song The Right Thing are about a person who is ready to leave everything behind and move on to heaven, which is depicted as a place of peace and happiness. The persona seems to have witnessed some kind of revelation that has opened their eyes to the possibility of a better life in heaven. The use of light imagery and the repetition of the phrase "one day I know" suggest that the persona is determined to follow through on this decision, even though it may be difficult or uncertain.
The chorus of the song reinforces this idea that the persona is ready to change their ways and do the right thing. They call out to God to save them and give them the strength to make this transition. The repetition of this plea to the divine suggests that the persona may be feeling some sense of guilt or regret about their past actions, and is seeking redemption through this decision to leave everything behind and move towards heaven.
Overall, The Right Thing is a deeply spiritual and reflective song that touches on themes of faith, redemption, and the search for meaning in life. Its lyrics are simple yet powerful, and convey a sense of hope and optimism that will resonate with many listeners.

One day I know
Someday I am certain
Gonna leave this all
I will leave everything behind
Reach off to heaven
And head towards paradise
Lights flying 'cross my eyes
I see captivating lights fly by
Oh it seems like
And it appears
This could be mine
That it could belong to me
