[Intro]
Uh, baby's got a—
[Verse 1]

[Pre-Chorus]
And you will choose a choice
You will avoid the void
No need to curse the sky

[Chorus]
And you'll avoid the void (Uh)
You will avoid the void
You will avoid the void (Uh)
You will avoid thе void
And you'll avoid the void (Uh)
You will avoid the void
You will avoid the void (Uh)
You will avoid thе void
