Tyler.l Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So many things I'm goin' through
So much that I wanna do
Startin' to become so clear to me, yeah
Tomorrow ain't really guaranteed
So many days I've thought of you
It's about time you know the truth
Got to act quickly, you and ICan't fall in love, so many reasons why
Why don't we, why don't we (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Why don't we, why don't we (uh, uh)
Why don't we fall (uh, uh)
So, I know how you kinda feel about religion
Based off of your own work but
I wanna ask you this
Do you believe that there's a higher power?
I mean, hell yeah, it's a higher power
I mean, somethin' had to come up with all this shit
But, if, if it's, it
I think God is in everybody (mhm)
Shit it's
It's what you believe in, it's what brings you that
That immense joy, that (mhm mhm) (love)
That you can't even explain (love)
I see, I see what you're sayin' (love, love)
So let me say this
Tellin' us today that a man built Noah's Ark
Is just as crazy as us tellin' a caveman
We built robot bitches we can fuck
