On “Selah”, the first song on the long-awaited LP Long Live the Angels, Emeli serenades her starving fans. The title itself indicates spirituality, and she takes us on a journey levelling herself amidst all the troubles and heartbreaks to be found on the rest of the album. A slew of medical terms ar...
[Intro]
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah
Mhmm
Mhmm
[Verse]
I feel it running through my veins
Guess I'm already bleeding for it
All four chambers got a different kinda beat for it
Try to hold my breath but it's filling up my lungs
Try keep it quiet but it's banging like a drum
And they're shaking up my bones
And tearing up my ligaments
I'm still tryna act like, nah it ain't that serious
But I'm deep in my womb and I'm kicking on the diaphragm
Try not seizure, blades like Caesar
Funny when I feel the choke of the umbilical
My soul gets deeper, song's real spiritual
Cross around my neck and a crystal in my pocket
My love is the bomb and forgiveness is the rocket
Which army gon' stop it, my faith rises up
Even while pulse droppin'
I wrote it on my heart so it's never forgotten
You're only begotten
The sun and the moon and the stars, all been watching
[Chorus]
Selah, they've been watching
Selah
Hey Selah
Selah
Selah
They've been watching, Selah, Selah
Selah, Selah, Selah, Selah, Selah
Selah, Selah, Selah
Selah, Selah, Selah, Selah, Selah

Emeli said in a track-by-track interview with SBTV:
It wasn’t intentional but [“Selah”] really is a story of like rebirth and stepping onto the next chapter of your life or the next adventure or whatever it felt like this kind new beginning in my life and [it] just felt like the perfect opening jus...
