If light has no mass, how does gravitational force bend light inwards

In the case of black holes, lights are pulled into by great gravitational force exerted by the dying stars (which forms into a black hole). If light has no mass, how is light affected by gravity?

Things that effect mass also effect energy.

A more accurate form of mass / acceleration calculations should include energy but it makes a very very small difference.

I can’t find it now but I did see somewhere the formula F = mA re-written to include energy by including part of the E=mc^2 formula.
