Simi opens up about falling hard when she least expected it on “City Lights.” She never saw herself as the type to fall this deep, but here she is, caught up and feeling everything at once. The song is about a scary yet exciting moment when love changes everything you thought you knew about yourself. One minute you’re guarding your heart, the next you’re wide open and terrified but happy.

[Verse One]
I never thought I′d ever want
Somebody, much as I want you
I never thought I'd ever love
Somebody much as I love you
Nobody said you would be the one to
Change my life
′Cause love was my taboo
Now you're my tattoo
Changed my life
[Pre-chorus]
It feels like something I need
Something just like fireflies
Dancing in the dark
I swear it's a dream
Every time you catch my eyes
Can you see the sparks?
Sparks
[Chorus]
Got me in my feelings and I′m feeling like
It′s scary, and it's brighter than the city lights
Hard guy don′t fall, it's a pity I
Never thought I′d be infatuated like this
[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh
My heart is bleeding
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
My heart is bleeding
Oh, oh, oh
And my heart is bleeding
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse Two]
What had happened was, I really thought
Sooner or later everything go burst o
Pronto (pronto)
Cupid don shoot me, catapult oh, oh, oh, oh
Be like say I high
Be like I drink ogogoro, walahi
Irú wàhálà wò leleyii o (kai)
You changed my life
[Pre-chorus]
It feels like something I need
Something just like fireflies
Dancing in the dark
I swear it's a dream
Every time you catch my eyes
Can you see the sparks?
Sparks
[Chorus]
Got me in my feelings and I′m feeling like
It's scary, and it's brighter than the city lights
Hard guy don′t fall, it′s a pity I
Never thought I'd be infatuated like this
[Outro]
Nobody said you would be the one to
Love was my taboo, now you′re my tattoo
Change my mind, girl you change my mind
