Kygo has teamed up with Zara Larsson and Tyga to interpolate a Dua Lipa’s unreleased song on “Like it is”, the first single from the Norwegian DJ-songwriter-producer’s upcoming third studio album “Golden hour”.
Produced by Petey Martin & Kygo, the track is also the first release of 2020 for Zara.
Last year the 22 year old pop star recorded “Invisible” for Netflix animated film Klaus. Currently she’s working on her third album.
About it, the “Never forget you” hitmaker said: “This album is definitely pop, it’s very love-­centred, because that’s just easy and universal. I would say it’s more honest and I also talk about stuff that isn’t love or isn’t about a girl who loves a boy. My favourite new song is about my sister…”.
“Like it is” follows smash summer hit “Higher on love”, The Chainsmoker’s collaboration “Family” and the Avicii tribute single “Forever yours”.

Lyrics:

Maybe you should leave this girl alone
But you won’t
But you don’t
Now delete my number from your phone
But you won’t
You gotta go
Oh, line-by-line, gotta spell it right out

I don’t know what you’re looking for
But I don’t think it’s me
I wish I could give you my all
Now could it make believe
I don’t feel how you feel
I’m just telling it like it is
I don’t need you to say those words no more

I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)

I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)

I’m just telling it like it is

Yeah, hol’ up, wait a minute, let’s make this right
You’re the only one thing that I need in my life
And I ain’t never met a girl like you before
I could tell you everything if you need to know
We was perfect before and I made mistakes
Told you I was all in, we can raise the stakes
Even though I’m a player, I ain’t contemplate
Now you on a vacay, hotel heartbreak
Champagne all day, on me, oh yeah
Miami with you friends, you ain’t worried ’bout me
Got a room with a suite, so drunk, lose the key
And I know we ain’t over so, the ring, you can keep, ay
We be right back tomorrow night (Tomorrow night)
It’s for life, you know we ride or die (Ride or die)
Single for the night but you still mine
And I’ma chill with this shawty just to kill the time, y’know

I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)

I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)

I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it like it is (You got me, you got me)
I’m just telling it, telling it (You got me, you got me)

I’m just telling it like it is
