Lyrics

Oh Lord you know it ain't right

Expressing dissatisfaction with the current way of living, seeking divine guidance.

To live my life this way

Acknowledging a need for change or improvement in life.

I gotta stay up every night and feel

Describing a struggle that requires staying awake to confront and overcome a particular emotion or situation.

This feeling 'til it goes away

Emphasizing the persistence of a challenging feeling until it subsides.


You know I had my crimes and I paid my dues

Reflecting on past mistakes or wrongdoings and having faced the consequences.

I've seen the best of times

Recalling a phase of life marked by positive experiences.

I had the best of friends

Having had valuable friendships but ultimately losing them due to risky behavior.

I played it all to lose

Acknowledging a pattern of risky behavior that led to losing everything.


But now I've seen the light

Claiming to have gained insight and intending to share it.

I'm gonna show it to you

Expressing determination to reveal newfound wisdom.

You gotta lay right down

Advising to surrender and relax for a transformative experience.

You gotta close your eyes

Encouraging closing one's eyes, possibly to enhance the transformative process.

And let it flow right through you

Encouraging the receptive flow of a positive influence.


Cause I I believe it in my soul

Expressing a strong belief in a positive and transformative force within.

And I always wanna feel this way so

Expressing a desire to consistently feel the positive way described.

Honey let the good times roll

Encouraging the continuation of joyful experiences.


Honey all night long I've

Repeating the encouragement for sustained happiness throughout the night.

Been sitting here drinking

Revealing a period of contemplation while consuming alcohol.

How come it took so long for me to change

Expressing surprise at the delayed realization of the need for change.

My mind don't know what I was thinking

Admitting confusion or lack of understanding in the past.


But now I've seen the light

Reiterating a newfound understanding and willingness to share it.

I'm gonna give it to you

Reiterating the intent to share transformative insights.

You gotta lay right down

Repeating the advice to relax for a transformative experience.

You gotta close your eyes

Repeating the encouragement to close one's eyes for receptivity.

You gotta let me in you

Stressing the importance of allowing a positive influence to enter.


Cause I I believe it in my soul

Reaffirming a strong belief in a positive and transformative force within.

And I always wanna feel this way so

Reaffirming the desire for a consistent positive experience.

Honey let the good times roll

Encouraging the continuation of joyful experiences.


Let me in you baby you gotta let me in you

Reiterating the call for receptivity and allowing a positive influence.
