[Intro]
Hey now, listen up, gotta speak my truth
When the church bell sings, I hear what's real
Yeah, yeah, yeah! When the church bell sings!
Can you hear it ringing? Crying out for a change
[Verse 1]
She’s been listening to every whisper, every lie
Holding everyone’s burdens, breaking inside
But that bell’s toll, it’s telling her to stand tall
Time to break the silence, answering the call
Inside she’s a flame, trying to break free from the shame and the blame
[Pre-Chorus]
No more tears, no more fears, she's done with the disguise
Gonna find her voice, make a choice, see the truth behind her eyes
Mama said love, but sometimes love hurts,
Gotta find the strength, gotta shake this dirt
[Chorus]
When the church bell sings, she’s letting go of everything
Setting boundaries, standing strong, finding where she belongs
High notes soaring, soulful crying, growls that shake the night
When the church bell sings, she’s reclaiming her dream’s light
When the church bell sings, it's time to let go,
Stand on my own, let my true self show
Loved ones might cry, but I gotta grow,
When the church bell rings, I know it’s my show
[Verse 2]
Once she’s drowned in kindness, drowning in their needs
Now she’s rising from the ashes, planting her own seeds
Pulse of her heartbeat, a rhythm fierce and free
Fear’s a shadow fading, she’s finally gonna
Decide who she’s meant to be instead
[Pre-Chorus]
No more tears, no more fears, she's done with the disguise
Gonna find her voice, make a choice, see the truth behind her eyes
(No more silence.... No more doubt!)
Time to rise, voice it out!
[Chorus]
When the church bell sings, she’s letting go of everything
Setting boundaries, standing strong, finding where she belongs
(Only where I belong!)
High notes soaring, soulful crying, growls that shake the night
When the church bell sings, she’s reclaiming her dream’s light
(Reclaiming forever lost!)
When the church bell sings, it's time to let go,
Stand on my own, let my true self show
Loved ones might cry, but I gotta grow,
When the church bell rings, I know it’s my show
[Bridge]
(Soulful ad libs, rap interlude:)
Yo, it's time to grow up, time to show up, no more excuses
Built from the ground up, she’s rising, her spirit juice
High or low, she knows, she’s got her own flow
(She’s fighting her fears, chasing the light!)
A new chapter begins when that bell starts to glow
Feel the growl of my soul, echoing deep,
High notes of hope, in my voice I keep
Ad libs of courage, wild and free,
Breaking the chains, just let me be
[Outro]
Yeah, when the church bell sings, she’s finally free
Breaking all the chains, yeah, she’s made her destiny
And the echoes of that bell, they’ll forever ring
A new girl’s call, oh, when the church bell sings
[End]
So hear the bell, it’s calling me,
(To be who I am, finally free!)
When the church bell sings, oh-oh, Mmm, woah! Yes! I believe.... This is my time.... This is my plea! This is when.... The church bell.... Sings!!
