Lyrics:
Why the desperate need for an applause?
I’ll wait
Is she the GOAT here well it’s safe to assume
Everybody panic when I step in the room
And I can feel that shit a mile off
Niggas is rapping about pieces
People are really dying is that what needed
I can’t save your soul you need Jesus
Tell me please
Why the desperate need to be remembered?
Everybody knowing what you’ve done
How far you’ve come
I’m guilty it’s a little self centred
People change when it’s about personal gain
I stay in my lane cos I’m not done with the checks
Give me what I deserve and not speak on the rest
Don’t know what has occurred then do not aimlessly guess
It’s a gift and a curse to this pretty and blessed
Blessed blessed blessed
So blessed
Used to plug that £20 mic into the back of the Mac Mac Mac
Just so you can hear my voice
Always knew this was my calling but I’m here by choice
And things change
Shit been dark for a minute I’m (blessed)
Delirious its hard to function on this winners time
Mouths to feed my nigga
Scripts to read my nigga
Double life living overseas my nigga shit
Left home for it
Jasmine just had a daughter man she’s so gorgeous
Told me life is giving life and I’m so for it
Maybe one day
Nothing’s more important and family’s where the love stays
Dealing with society’s pressures is one thing
Let alone all of the problems that funds bring
But no stress
Understand it comes with the process
I follow my intuition cause it knows best
Im so used to getting it on my own yes
Know my people wanna see me win
I’d never let you down
Standing ovation for the one who’s wearing the crown
I got royalty In my blood I was born great
Don’t allow anyone to undermine your fate
You’ve awoken the fearless
High beams and lucid dreams
Don't be so obsessed with me
You think you know what's best for me
Take my energy come to find there's nothing left of me
Went from being small time to becoming my own entity
Went from being broke as fuck and trying to find identity
To buying the finer things isolating memories
What is it I'm meant to be
I think I need a standing ovation
Over 10 years in the game I been patient
God has always told me to be myself
Let go and free yourself
Tell the truth a shame Satan
Know I gotta pave the way for the next generation
That’s coming up under me and I love to see it
thought I was bluffing
Didn’t see it it coming
Hold up
Think this is cold you ain’t see nothing
The glow up
All the discussing
But I don’t let it distract me
Load the pen up cock it back and get to bussin
Standing up to who I make the scene lie down
Get it how I live it how it bees right now
I got another 20 in the shit I’m cemented
Take over businesses tell the kids start investing
We built the pyramids can’t you see what we are blessed with
From the hieroglyphics to the hood lyricist
Priest the Imams
The Good Books you live with
The Rumi quotes
The elder sisters
The tribal mantras
The jazz players
Holistic doctors
Spiritual teachers
Doers and the Dulas
The protectors and the rulers
The kids of the future
The immortal soldiers
And the fearless protesters
To the motivation speakers
And the honest black leaders
The divine healers
The everyday low paid believers
The overachievers in the shadow of the gate keepers
Came down to teach us
Blessed blessed blessed
Blessed blessed blessed
All these trophy’s in the crib got em sitting nice got em sitting nice (blessed blessed blessed)
After all the hard work that we put inside
Everybody claim to be boss but I’m a different kind
Hate it or love it we rise above it

Just realised at 0:57 when she says the line "so blessed, used to plug that 20 pound mic into the back of the mac" you can hear a little distortion sound effect of someone plugging a mic in, that's such insane attention to detail holy shit. It's very subtle but intentional, at first I thought my speakers were faultering a little until I read the lyrics
As a 53 year old Black American, I am so overwhelmed by the Younger Female African and British Hip Hop Artists. The Vibes, Beats, Soulful Sounds, The Culture, Just the whole Package. Natural Melanin Beautiful Queens of the African Diaspora. I wish my American Artists would get on this level. Great love to the Little Simz, ENNY and Sampa The Great of the World.
This one really stood out to me on the first listen. Outstanding track.
3:10 I was in tears at this point 😭
Lol I cried at the exact same point. And for the second time today listening to another Little Simz track.
@@123Mongwe what other one
@@melaniebafia rolling stone I cry to almost everyday a lot of her songs are so great full of a million emotions
"The overachievers in the shadows of the gatekeepers" That's is why UA-cam is a thriving space for creatives, they legit do not have to wait for the gatekeeper for the world to see their art or get paid from it
Youtubr still gatekeeps…they decide what goes on trending and stuff
Not a good example considering how UA-cam removed dislike button
YT is pure censorship. But here the message is not against coprs. interests
If you actually think like this you don't deserve information
🇬🇧🤝♣️...Happy Holidays!!!!🙏
This song is a standing ovation.
Everybody give SIMZ 🐐 a standing ovation 🙌🏽🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🧍🏾♀️🧍🏾♀️🧍🏾♀️🧍🏾♀️🧍🏾♀️
This album is immense. Little Simz: massive sound for 2021
I love the use of samples throughout this album. Damn girl you got me clutching my pearls. Give her these flowers why she can still smell em 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
What is crazy is there is only one sample on the whole album, the rest is all original music made for the album.
@@MrAsh2001 even more amazing. I havent stopped vibin. Its Grammy time for our simbi 💐👑💐👑💐
@@MrAsh2001 they sampled/replayed a beat by just blaze for this one. it's talib kweli's song never been in love. really dope track, suggest u to check it out if you haven't heard it!
Don’t you mean ‘while’?
not only how beautiful this is, but music that makes the audience reflect themselves and music that resonate with the audience are definitely good music.
thank you a lot and a lot for creating them, simz.
That switch up at the end gave me goosebumps and tears WOW
The intro and the outro are some of the sickest parts in the entire album
Jesus..she took the crown with this one.
This album is perfect.
I need Simz to do official lyrics videos for all her songs so that I can directly support her and learn the lyrics at the same time 😭❤
The end of the song gives me goosebumps every time
This is one of those songs that is so ahead of its time that it will still be ahead of its time when its time comes and will still be ahead of its time when its time has passed. It is beyond. The true-to-life embodiment of what Neil Gaiman meant when he wrote, "Songs remain. They last."
THis track deserves a standing ovation
I love this, one of my fav from the album
One of my favourites in the album!
This album is amazing. Only now discovering her work, and I'm blown away. As a white male I may not be able to relate to everything she speaks about on this album, But I respect and applaud her for letting us into her world in such a beautiful way. This is Definity one of the best albums I have heard this year, and maybe even of all time. What a masterpiece.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 you definitely deserve all the applause. You're amazing af Simz 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Listening to Little Simz like Nas (if he was cut with some Fela Kuti) in his prime. Impressive.
BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM OMG SHE SNAPPED
fav song of the album
This joont and oklamar's united in grief are classics.

Does anyone know where this sample has been used before? It's driving me crazy trying to remember where I've heard it before
Maybe you're thinking of ua-cam.com/video/YrkERRYOzzA/v-deo.html ?
@@Metaphir nevermind I found it. The sample is from "fruits of the spirit" by Jay Electronica
I think the original sample is also from Never Been in Love - Talib Kweli. Electronica does appear to have also engineered a track with it
👑 queen simz ❤

Fire
Jis gal it’s amazing
Standing ovation...
This instrumental reminds me a bit of the song 4:44 by Jay Z. Anyone else?
Fruits of the spirit by jay electronica

My girl's flow sounds similar to Gift of Gab from Blackalicious.
Did no one notice the bad vocal edit at 3:22? On "protesters"?
Protest-Protesters
hello I know you're too shy to hear you're the best and I understand this but really you change my life I'm a fuckin' 47 old poor white boyz and YOU came in my life with your wonderland things in NPR I know You know your destiny I know you'll be the greast and my sweet dreamz come true YOU did one off the greast album so far (from the last decade Daft Punk don't count ) bon je suis francais désooé pour la grammaire come in France please
Dont allow anyone to undermine your fate
Talk about stealing Ennio Morricone riffs! Bloody good though :)
Beat stolen from Talib Kweli "Never Been in Love" 😉
that's a thing called sampling, a stapple on hiphop
Don’t talk about hip hop if you think sampling is stealing
I don't know why but i like the way se say the n word
