Somebody Like Me Lyrics


Joy Oladokun Somebody Like Me

[Verse 1]
Even when I do my best
Feels like it doesn't matter
Feels like it doesn't matter
I've watched even my best intentions
Turn into disaster
Everything goes backwards

[Pre-Chorus]
I've searched the rubble of all of my decisions
Learned to say sorry for the things I do
Though I don't want to
Some days, it feels so hard to get better
And I've never been as honest as I want to be
When I need help through
[Chorus]
Can anybody say a prayer?
Can anybody light a candle?
For somebody like mе?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-oh
It's the least that God could do
For giving more than Hе could handle
To somebody like me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Somebody like me
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Somebody like me
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I've watched all my rivers run dry
Over and over (Over and over)
Over and over (Over and over)
Now I know that's no way to get by
Can't keep on fixing (Can't keep on fixing)
The things I haven't broken (Can't fix what's broken)
[Pre-Chorus]
I've searched the rubble of all of my decisions
Learned to say sorry for the things I do
Though I don't want to
Some days it feels so hard to get better
And I've never been as honest as I want to be
When I need help through

[Chorus]
Can anybody say a prayer?
Can anybody light a candle
For somebody like me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-oh
It's the least that God could do
For giving more than He could handle
To somebody like me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Somebody like me
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Somebody like me
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro]
Somebody like me ain't perfect
Somebody like me needs care
In the moment, I'm heavy and hurting
Can anybody meet me there?
Somebody like me ain't perfect
Somebody like me needs care
In the moment, I'm heavy and hurting
Can anybody meet me there?
Somebody like me ain't perfect
Somebody like me needs care
In the moment, I'm heavy and hurting
Can anybody meet me there?
Somebody like me ain't perfect
Somebody like me needs care
In the moment, I'm heavy and hurting
Can anybody meet me there?
