[Verse 1]
Throw me to the lions, send me to the light
Oh, you got me up all night
Wading in a full moon sky, it's all in my mind
Got a hold on my soul, I try to take the weight
Even if my heart might break, even if it stays the same
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah-ah) Some things are hard to find
(Eh-eh-eh) We seek between the lines
(Oh-oh-oh) Waiting for miracles
[Chorus]
I, I let my ego
Know she has to take the backseat, the backseat
Or this whole situation will be the death of me
I, I let my ego
Know she has to take the backseat, the backseat (Backseat)
Or this whole situation will be the death of me
[Verse 2]
Taking every corner, turning every stone
Stripped down to my very bones
Cut it loose and watch it go
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah-ah) Some things are hard to find
(Eh-eh-eh) That we seek between the lines
(Oh-oh-oh) Waiting for miracles
[Chorus]
I, I let my ego
Know she has to take the backseat, the backseat (Backseat)
Or this whole situation will be the death of me
I, I let my ego
Know she has to take the backseat, the backseat (Backseat)
Or this whole situation will be the death of me
[Post-Chorus]
I let the bitch know, I let the bitch know
I let the bitch know, I let the bitch know
I let the bitch know she's out of control
I let the bitch know, I let the bitch know
I let the bitch know she's out of control
[Outro]
I let the bitch know, I let the bitch know
I let the bitch know she's out of control
I let the bitch know, I let the bitch know
I let the bitch know she's out of control
EGO was written by Agnes & Vincent Pontare & Salem Al Fakir & Hannah Wilson & Kerstin Ljungström & Outrovert.
EGO was produced by Vargas & Lagola & Outrovert.
“EGO” is inspired by conversations about self-discovery and Eckhart Tolle’s lyrics about the ego. I wanted to capture the feeling that it is only when we dare to let go of control that life can surprise us.
