Righteous Fire Alarm

[Intro]

[Horn stab hits

Hard stop]

Who hit the switch?

Who lit the fuse?

Red light flashin'

Got no excuse (hey!)

[Verse 1]

Caught me walkin' in quiet

Tryna tuck my shine away

Then you talked like you were king

Babe

Like my heart was loose change

You thought I’d fold in the corner

Thought I’d cool and behave

But I got wildfire in order

And you just brushed the flame

[Chorus]

You rang the righteous fire alarm (yeah)

Now every siren in my chest goes off

You woke the power in my palms

I’m comin’ in hot

Comin’ in strong

You rang the righteous fire alarm

I’m burnin’ right through every lock you’ve got

You shook the cage

Now here I come

You lit it

But my voice got voltage

Cracks your porcelain pride

I got sisters in my echo

I got thunder in my veins

I got sisters in my echo

I got thunder in my veins

Each “too much” that you ever threw

Is gasoline on my name

[Chorus]

You rang the righteous fire alarm (oh!)

Now every siren in my chest goes off

You woke the power in my palms

I’m comin’ in hot

Comin’ in strong

You rang the righteous fire alarm

I’m burnin’ right through every lock you’ve got

You shook the cage

Now here I come

You lit it

You lit it

You lit this righteous fire alarm

[Bridge]

Don’t you dare say “calm down”

When I finally stand tall

You don’t get to call it anger

When it’s justice in my jaw

Every “hush” that you handed me

I melt it into crown

If you can’t stand this temperature

Then boy

Don’t hang around (hey!)

[Chorus]

You rang the righteous fire alarm

Now every siren in my chest goes off

You woke the power in my palms

I’m comin’ in hot

Comin’ in strong

You rang the righteous fire alarm

I’m burnin’ right through every lock you’ve got

You shook the cage

Now here I come

You lit it

You lit it

You lit this righteous fire alarm

[Outro]

You lit it

You lit it

Now live with the blaze

You rang it

You rang it

Now watch me take up space (oh yeah)
