Gorillaz - Let Me Out Lyrics






[Pusha T:]
Mama Mavis, oh
Mama, they tried my patience
Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless
I fly with the vultures, I be with them bangers
If change don't come, then the change won't come
If the bands make 'em dance, then the rain gon' come
(Woo!)

[Mavis Staples:]
Am I passin' into the light?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?) look into your eyes
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark, let me out)
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change come to pass
Change come to pass
You'd best be ready for it

[2-D:]
Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in time
But I won't get tired at all

Let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out

[Pusha T:]
Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see
Tell me there's a chance for me to make it off the streets
Tell me that I won't die at the hands of the police
Promise me I won't outlive my nephew and my niece
Promise me my pastor isn't lyin' as he preach
Tell me that they'll listen if it's lessons that I teach
Tell me there's a heaven in the sky where there is peace
But until then, I keep my piece in arm's reach
(Yeah!)

[Mavis Staples:]
Am I passin' into the light?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?)
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark) another night
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change coming
You'd best be ready for it

[2-D:]
Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in times
But I won't get tired at all

[Mavis Staples:]
Am I passin' into the light?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?)
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark) another night
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change is coming
You'd best be ready

Be ready, ready for it
Be ready, be ready
(Let me out)

Gorillaz Let Me Out Comments
  1. S.... F....

    After seein the documentary I have a whole new love and appreciation for this album. Like I loved it already, but I love it even more now <3 <3

  2. V.... N....

    Just came back from the documentary. I had forgotten how i much i loved this song

  3. B.... M....

    Please... You've got to release the beautiful acoustic version in 'Reject False Icons' now.

  4. S.... U....

    What people think Gorillaz is:
    Hip hop
    What it is:
    Hip hop
    Alternative rock
    Electronica
    Some reggae
    Pop music
    Virtual rap
    Alt hip hop
    Lovely song. Might possibly see the "reject false icons" documentary with my dad, since we're both g-fans. I love you Gorillaz. Keep up the good work :3

  5. S.... F....

    My favorite part of this is the “Let me out” whisper/chant through the whole song. It really describes my inner id trying to get out from being locked up in my head.

  6. L.... ....

    Some degenerate: Hey what genre do you lik-
    Me: Gorillaz.

  7. A.... D....

    No one is saying that Humanz must be the most depressing, hard, and overall, strange Gorillaz Album? Unlike Demon Days, this album left nothing of the subtetly.

  8. S.... S....

    *a minor discomfort occurs*
    My depression: 1:00

  9. �.... 1....

    Ага, да, тут русские есть. У 2D такой аккуратненький носик :3

  10. M.... L....

    Kd os brs q se cansaram dos funks e vieram parar aqui?!

  11. I.... C....

    Cyberpunk Vibes

  12. L.... K....

    Oh I thought 2d wasn’t in this song but he pops up like HEY IM SINGING DO YOU HEAR ME

  13. R.... ....

    "Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
    So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
    They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors"

    excuse me but isn't this sort of prophetic with the current political discourse

    R.... ....

    Second line is "Orlando, we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors"

  14. D.... A....

    Hands down the best song of this project. The instrumentation is hypnotic

  15. s.... t....

    2:30 lol

  16. M.... L....

    Eu ñ sei vcs, mas quando fui reagir ao clipe e a música, eu ñ prestei atenção na música, só tentando "montar" o rosto




    Edit: Kd os br?!

  17. A.... G....

    Did Murdoc bleach himself with the *B A F F*

  18. e.... ....

    This song is great, but I just wish it had more of a climax at 2D's parts, it drops instead of escalates, but its still a great song

  19. N.... L....

    I really like how many genres Gorillaz can seamlessly transition into, it’s really impressive

  20. d.... ....

    “The devils at work and Trump is calling favors”

    Gorillaz predict the future!!

  21. B.... ....

    pusha Ts verse was shorter than my patience when i speak to idiots

  22. A.... ....

    most underrated gorillaz song

  23. S.... ....

    If you haven't, try and find this live as well. At outside lands 2017 this was one of my favorites because it's even better live.

  24. A.... A....

    I love Gorillaz ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  25. R.... ....

    Skeppy WHERE ARE YOU

  26. K.... C....

    Mama Mavis, oh
    Mama, they tried my patience
    Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
    So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
    They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors!

  27. a.... t....

    Ignorant

  28. C.... m....

    I honestly hate some Gorillaz fans.
    So, I changed from Glass Animals to Gorillaz, and I wanted to look for nostalgia, looked up Pork Soda, and god almighty I hate comments for Glass Animals. These comments are like, the only decent ones lol.

  29. L.... I....

    2D/Damon’s voice here sounds really cute lmao

  30. U.... E....

    all my loife

  31. P.... L....

    The fiend "Let me in"

  32. i.... z....

    Uwu, owo, {=( )=}

  33. R.... ....

    The prophecy is coming true. Trump is calling favors and change is coming to pass. Let it out and let's end this corruption. Be ready for it and keep your peace at arm's reach.

  34. K.... ....

    Mama, they tried my patience
    Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
    So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
    They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
    You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless

    If change don't come, then the change won't come
    If the bands make 'em dance, then the rain gon' come
    (Woo!)
    Am I passin' into the light?
    (Am I looking into mercy's eyes?) Look into your eyes
    All the world is out of your hands
    (Then ascending into the dark, let me out)
    You got to die a little if you wanna live
    Change come to pass
    You'd best be ready for it
    Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in time
    But I won't get tired at all
    Let me out, let me out
    Let me out, let me out
    Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see

    Change is coming
    You'd best be ready
    Be ready, ready for it
    Be ready, be ready
    Ooh, ooh ooh
    (Let me out)

  51. F.... ....

    Good thing I started exploring more of humanz this is an AMAZINNG song.

  52. .... ....

    Skeppy fans! Where u at!

  53. C.... ....

    Who tf is skeppy? Is that yet another gaming channel? Atleast Gorillaz is getting more attention on this song.

    C.... ....

    Skeppy is unsurprisingly another minecraft YouTuber that my little brother watches. He's seriously annoying

  54. C.... C....

    This song is underrated

  55. M.... A....

    Just a random ping spoofer in the comments :)

  56. T.... 5....

    HELP ME FIND SKEPPY

    T.... 5....

    VaporTanookiboi 582 I already did

  57. G.... C....

    Making music on subjects that matter - racism! 🙏😋

  58. K.... K....

    where is that skeppy comment

    K.... K....

    Kyle Kxle I’ve been looking

  59. K.... A....

    Oh God Yes! this song is an Orgasm!!

  60. N.... O....

    I'm seeing people complain about people who think this "isn't Gorillaz" instead of actual comments like that.
    *They're either doing their job on telling people really well or people finally got the clue.*

  61. M.... J....

    That effect in the beginning kinda sounds like 2-D trying to escape

  62. x.... ....

    We dealt with 8 years of the worst President of my lifetime, race relations were at their lowest after the first black president did nothing but divide. What an absolute joke and waste of a human. you can deal with 8 years of growth and prosperity. Trump 2020

  63. j.... g....

    Wow I HOPE SOMEONE DIES TOMOROW

  64. K.... ....

    literally a gorillaz and skeppy fan

  65. L.... F....

    way to date the song whining about a presidential election. pusha ruined this otherwise great song with fucking lame surface level politics

  66. T.... t....

    This whole comment section has become a complete trainwreck after this guy called Skeppy recorded himself commenting on this song
    Like come on just enjoy this good music instead of trying to find a comment made by your favorite YouTuber. What good will it even to do you after you spent like half an hour trying to find it?
    I'm not trying to be rude but I'm honestly glad that the Gorillaz fandom consists of (mostly) mature people because this right here is a good example of how it would've turned out if it consisted of only young children

    T.... t....

    @TurboTheWeirdGUY ..?

  67. a.... ....

    This album is better than i remember. I actually hated this when it came out, but its so good what the fucc?

  83. w.... ....

    mama mavis

  84. R.... B....

    Perfect outro for Stone Ocean

  85. K.... F....

    This isn’t even a good example of this style of hip hop. Pusha T sucks. This isn’t a good beat. I’d rather listen to a Kanye west album, I hate Kanye but he makes awesome music. I’d even rather listen to lil yacthie or something stupid like that, they make catchy coherent music. This just sounds like an over the hill producer making a lame overhyped beat for an untalented lyricist. The gorillaz guy is chasing shitty pop rap, and it shouldn’t be like that.

    K.... F....

    Get high

    K.... F....

    ok boomer

    K.... F....

    People dont judge songs on how accurate it is to a certain style of music , people judge it how it is as a song as how the beat and lyrics all go together and to me personally it works very well and the ones that arent the gorillaz in this actually make it sound very much amazing and well catchy.

  86. J.... ....

    Ah not as good as the ones they did 15 years ago

  87. R.... W....

    I like this but I actually prefer the remix even though they're both awesome

  88. Q.... ....

    Bro where is Skeppy’s comment?

  89. P.... ....

    Let me out this is not a dance

  90. S.... ....

    I LOVE this.

  91. D.... W....

    When I’m in school




    *Let me out*
    *Let me out*
    *Let me out*
    *Let me out*

  92. s.... S....

    HOLY SHIT MURDOC MORE LIKE MURCOCK DAMN HE HWAT IN THIS

  93. L.... K....

    let me in LET ME IN

  94. J.... ....

    2D's voice is my life force

  95. E.... ....

    Heard this at the gym that my uncle owns and shzam the song and to my surprise it was a Gorillaz song cuz I'm soo into gorillaz
