little simz - introvert / woman (live at the brit awards 2022) lyrics

[part i: introvert]

[verse 1: little simz]
the kingdom’s on fire, the blood of a young messiah
i see sinners in a church, i see sinners in a church
sometimes i might be introvert
there’s a war inside, i hear battle cries
mothers burying sons, young boys playing with guns
the devil’s a liar, fulfil your wildest desires
now i don’t wanna be the one to doctor this
but if you can’t feel pain, you can’t feel the opposite
the fight between the yin and yang’s a fight you’ll never win
i study humans, that makes me an anthropologist
i’m not into politics, but i know it’s dark times
parts of the world still living in apartheid
but if i don’t take this winner’s flight, that’s career suicide
though i should’ve been a friend whеn your grandma died
i see the illness еat my aunt laying in her bed
i see her soul rising as her body gets closer to death
[refrain: cleo sol]
find a way, i’ll find a way
the world’s not over
i will make it, don’t you cry
in god we trust
’cause we’re not alone

[verse 2: little simz, cleo sol]
i need a licence to feel
internal wounds and i’m not tryna be healed (no, i don’t, no, i don’t, no)
i sabotage what we are trying to build
’cause of feelings i keep inside, but it’s time to reveal (reveal, reveal)

[segue: emma corrin]
and so it begins
the story of never+ending
your introversion led you here
intuition protected you along the way
alone, but not lonely
your truth unveils with time
as you embark upon the journey
of what it means to be a woman

[part ii: woman]

[verse 1: little simz]
naija women, got the melanin drippin’
l+o+n+d+o+n, city girl livin’
in the back, lookin’ like fire, chili pepper
yoruba girl tougher than imperial leather
he was gettin’ bitter, she was gettin’ better
diamonds are forever
miss sierra leone, lookin’ like a gem
works hard in the week, party on the weekend
know you wanna live, no one watchin’ how you spend
got a thing, finer things and the finer men, huh
miss tanzania, she a do or die
say she want to know more ’bout the suk+ma tribe
we hit the… once wasn’t enough
i got an ocean full of knowledge, you could scuba dive
miss ethiopia, play so jazzy
sit you down and school you on selassie
[pre+chorus: little simz]
tell ’em you’re nothin’ without a woman (no)
woman to woman, i just wanna see you
let me hear you sing

[chorus: cleo sol, little simz]
i love (say what?) how you go from zero to one hundred (that’s right)
and leave the dust behind, you’ve got this
all action, no talk

[verse 2: little simz]
barbadian honey, know you reppin’ for your country
sun kissing your brown skin, lookin’ like (money)
said she focusin’ on bein’ an accountant
when you have beauty and brains, they find it astoundin’
why? she been gettin’ it on her own
self made, ain’t n0body doin’ gold digger
now, miss india always speaks with her chest
respect from her people ’cause she leads them the best (she a leader)
huh, real life queen in the flesh
crown get heavy, still it be’s on your head
my brooklyn ladies, know you hustle on the daily
innovative just like donna summer in the eighties
your time, they seein’ you glow now
intelligence, elegance, show ’em how
miss jamaica understand food for the soul
she get up in the kitchen know she throw down
[pre+chorus: little simz]
ain’t nothin’ without a woman
woman to woman, i just wanna see you glow
tell ’em

[chorus: cleo sol]
i love how you go from zero to one hundred
and leave the dust behind, you’ve got this
all action, no talk
