The Weeknd – Like A God Lyrics

Updated

on

Like A God is a song by The Weeknd released as a part of the soundtrack for his show The Idol.

Unlike the soundtrack’s other placements, Like A God actually portrays the background story of the show’s main characters Jocelyn and Tedros. The first verse covers the story of Jocelyn’s mother, who presumably died from cancer. The second verse covers Tedros’ life pre-Idol, sitting as a back-story to the show. Both are told from a narrative perspective.

The song was premiered on The Weeknd’s Instagram June 26th, 2023, and then performed live on tour on June 28th in Dublin, before being released on June 30th, together with “False Idols” as the Episode 5, Part 1 pack.

Like A God Lyrics by The Weeknd

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Mama taught her how to please
Daddy begged them not to leave
But they drove to the City of Angels
Mama knows, baby girl gon’ be famous (Yeah)
Mama died after fallen dreams
Suicide made her tabloid queen

[Pre-Chorus]
She’s alone, the city gon’ break her
There’s no one, there’s no one to save her, oh-oh

[Chorus]
He watches over like a God
Makes you hurt again, so you can heal and say “Amen”
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
Give our lives to you, oh-oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
Give our lives to you, oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Baby boy was doing petty crimes
Twenty-five, he was serving time
He would dream of the City of Angels
He was born to entertain us, ‘tain us, ‘tain us
At his core, he’s just a jealous guy
Many women falling for his lie

[Pre-Chorus]
He’s alone, the city will break him
‘Cause there’s no, there’s no one to save him, oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
She watches over like a God
Makes you hurt again so you can heal and say “Amen”
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
Give our lives to you, oh-oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
Give our lives to you
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
End our lives for you, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh
We will change for you
We will cry for you
We will pay for you
Give our lives to you, oh-oh-oh
