The Bells

Ring them bells on my behalf and right now

They will know about when I enter

Cause I'ma make the game just slide down

That's not arrogance, it's just confidence

And I'm confident in my sound

I'ma try in lock down the whole world

But first, I gotta lock down my hometown

I come in, I've got a show and I'm on at 9

So ring them bells when I come through and they know it's time

The music will speak for itself and I know it's fine

See there's a fine line between the fine

I'm not your ordinary rapper

Leave 'em in panic, saying I'm way too behind

Little simz I gotta catch up

Say they climbing, that's all by the help of a ladder

Ring them bells, now this is more than a naija matter

And it goes

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing ah

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing

Oh!

Better keep them ringing

While you listen to the choir singing

Give you that ever so soulful music

Never transformed into sinning

Glorifying the praises

Still lost in the music like you going through mazes

Improving performances just by going through stages

Growing into a woman, I'll be going through changes

It will be something amazing I feel

And that's deep down

Think about it before you speak out

These bars are made of gold

But I left that wooden floor up in the tree house

Shout out to everyone that reached out

Yeah, I see all of you

They say, Simz, never let them get bored of you

I say, don't worry about that, I order you

To ring the bell

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing ah

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing

I pray I never have my father's aim

But my mother's love and that will keep me sane

I go far away, you'll never see it

Seeing doesn't make it real, you gotta believe it

Always be the giving and one day you'll receive it

I just wanna change lives and I will achieve it

Come a long way from the youth club to the big stage

And I still got more and ready to go

Let me get in my zone, I would rather be all alone

Made in the UK, I'm telling 'em watch the throne

You ain't coming with; no problem, I go alone

Take a hit, cloud nine; I'm blown

When I come through, I part the sea

Like moses, I'm focused

I am the driving force of my career

With no seatbelts, so I understood my fears

Let 'em know, I've arrived

I'm here, so ring the bell

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing

The bells

The bells

The bells

Better keep them ringing ah

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing

Saved by the last bell

Can't crack through this hard shell

Its that time so everybody be quiet

Better keep them ringing
