Little Simz – Heart On Fire Lyrics
Intro
(My heart’s on f–)
Verse 1: Little Simz
Look
Honesty between a seller and a buyer should be a given
But, man, I didn’t know you were a liar
Dropped out of college, still, I made it through the wire
We was tryna hustle whatever was ten just for a fiver
“Don’t sell yourself short, miss,” said the driver
Was on my way to getting caught in the crossfire
I mean, lavish living, dripping designer
“Who you wearing?”, they so enchanted by attire (My heart’s on f–)
Heart’s on fire, bought the dream with еvery penny that I acquired
It’s a sеt-up and you’ll be next up to those prior
Devil works hard, but the business works harder
I vowed from now to work smarter
They won’t do it like us, for the people, by us
Why they wanna fight us? Spirit on higher
God made truth of everything I desire (My heart’s on f–)
I don’t need much as long as I got my baby, he a rider
He sitting beside her, that’s who she confide in
They want you conniving, creeping with your side ting
Making up a story that equals somebody buying
New world order ’cause life as we know is dying
Not thriving, it’s only a matter of timing, ain’t it just
Funny how you can literally give your everything?
Somebody gonna turn around and tell you you ain’t gave enough (My heart’s on f–)
Danger, what you afraid of?
Acknowledging it’s impossible now to restrain her
Worst thing I could’ve done is put trust in a stranger
But that needed to happen for me only to wake up
The suits’ll get in your ear when your shit popping
Lies overflowing and they ain’t stopping
You don’t even recognize who it is that you’re becoming
They don’t give a shit long as the gravy train running (My heart’s on f–)
Chorus
My life is a blessing
But it comes with the stresses
And I can’t take it all
Just don’t let me down when I’m in the fire
(My heart’s on f–)
Verse 2: Little Simz
We all start off so pure
Do it for the love, nothing more
Nah, maybe to cop mum a house, but nothing more
Maybe to sort my cousin out, but nothing more
Maybe I’ll get the new coupe and nothing more
Fifteen to a hundred shoes, nothing more
By the time you know it, that list never stop growing
And you don’t know what you even do this for (My heart’s on f–)
Hearts on fire, hearts on grandeur
Ballroom gowns as champagne pours
Is the afterparty a social party?
With everybody talking, the music should’ve been paused
Marble floors and tall glass doors is what you’re in for
Did you read the clause?
It was never about looking for results
Now every time you do something, you need an applause (My heart’s on f–)
Please keep your head on when you’re going through the maze
‘Cause navigating the fame is something you’re never trained for
Tell me what you came for
Wanted better days and now you’re running away from that very thing you prayed for
Tell me, am I tripping or is the light blinding?
Am I anxious or am I excited?
Am I calm or am I unbothered?
Or maybe I needed my fire to be ignited? (My heart’s on f–)
Heart’s on
Chorus
My life is a blessing
But it comes with the stresses
And I can’t take it all
Just don’t let me down when I’m in the fire
(My heart’s on f–)
My life is a blessing
But it comes with the stresses
And I can’t take it all
Just don’t let me down when I’m in the fire
(My heart’s on f–)
