Alessia Cara – 7 Days lyrics

[Verse 1]
If there's a God
Do you think he's looking down, curled up on his couch right now?
As we to fail to figure it out, does he turn down the sound?
Is he proud? Are we proud?
Guess we forgot how to live a life with no filter
Making boring people famous
Let's pretend they're fascinating
Let's tell little girls that pretty girls are better
Or that pigment or religion really matters

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause were in some trouble
Mr. Man, don't turn away from your screen
I wish the bubble that we've created could make for some good T.V

[Chorus]
Oh Mr. Man upstairs
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
Would you care to answer my question?
Oh the land of four takes
A spectacle of cut and paste
That we've made
Would you say? Please say
It was worth the seven days

[Verse 2]
Does he hang his head in all the greed we possess?
As the anti-social media perpetuates the mess
Maybe it's a test, maybe he's upset by the [?] stress
Like the rest of us, it happens to the best of us
God, or is it Mr. G to me?
I hope that through the static you show what's the clarity
'Cause it's hard to find the silver lining in the bittersweet
Wonder if you're praying for us 'fore you go to sleep
Do you sleep in peace?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause were in some trouble
Mr. Man, but don't turn away from your screen
I wish the bubble that we've created has made for damn good T.V

[Chorus]
Oh Mr. Man upstairs
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
Would you care to answer my question?
Oh the land of four takes
The spectacle of cut and paste
That we've made
Would you say? Please say
It was worth the seven days

[Bridge]
Don't touch the remote
Act in the moment
We are not hopeless
We are just coping
[?]
But it ain't showbiz
[?] posters
I know it
But we're growing
Have some hope in us
And were we worth all the time you gave us?

[Chorus]
Oh Mr. Man upstairs
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
Would you care to answer my question?
Oh the land of [?]
The spectacle of cut and paste
That we've made
Would you say? Please say
It was worth the seven days, yeah
Oh, oh, mmm
Oh, was it worth the seven days?
