Kali Uchis - Sincerely, Lyrics






Heaven is a Home...


Hey, hey
Yeah, you
Hey, hey, hello
Yeah, you

Hey, could you quiet down?
There's too many sounds
And the world could really use some rest
I prayed every night to take me far away
Now I've got way more than what I asked
Some days it's so hard to care about my fate
'Til I remember just how far I came

Shining through the clouds
See a smiling face
And it gives me faith
Yeah, it gives me hope

'Cause Heaven is a home
Wherever I'm with you, oh-oh
All I wanted was a home
And Heaven knows
That every word is true
I'm at home wherever I'm with you

Tired of the world
They're on my last damn nerve
Could life be Heaven on Earth
After the hell we been through?
Stay away from my baby
Stay away from my home
That's all I ask of the world
That's all I ask of you

Don't forget why they're so mad
Look at just how deeply we've been blessed
Shining through the clouds
See a smiling face
And it gives me faith
Yeah, it gives me hope

'Cause Heaven is a home
Wherever I'm with you, oh-oh
All I wanted was a home
And Heaven knows
That every word is true
I'm at home wherever I'm with you

This is a story of a girl
Who was once imprisoned by her own mind
And freedom's never felt this good

Sugar! Honey! Love!


Sugar, honey, love
So sweet to me
So sweet to me
Sugar, honey, love
Step from the top, no "One, two, three"

Woop, there's another one, who could I ever trust?
And we go, woop, there's another one, who, tell me who can I trust?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woop, there's another one, swear at this point, I've seen it all
So nothing shocks me anymore
Sick and tired of betrayal, tell me, who can I trust?

And I did all my time for a crime that wasn't mine
Made it out alive, now I'm letting the sun
Shine on me and my sweet sugar honey love
Shine all your light to this world, sugar, honey, love

And I, I had almost given up hope
'Til I met a love so pure and true
Day I met you, babe
Freed me from the fear, you put the blood back in my heart
Every day was gray, you put color back to my world
Sugar honey, you gave me so much more to live for

And I did all my time for a crime that wasn't mine
Made it out alive, now I'm letting the sun
Shine on me and my sweet sugar honey love
Shine all your light to this world, sugar, honey, love

So sweet to me, so sweet to me
Sugar, honey, love
So sweet to me, so sweet to me
Sugar, honey, love

Lose My Cool,


It crossed my mind
Way more times than it should have
How insensitive I must have seemed
But I wasn't
It was quite the opposite
Pulled my hair back with barrettes
See, I was trying to keep my cool
'Cause no one wants to act a fool, but

You make me lose my cool
Confused, I forgot the rules to play
So forget the game
Take off your cool now, don't be ashamed
You make me lose my cool
It's true, so forget the rules, don't play
Baby, lose the games
Take off your cool now, don't be afraid

Baby, take off your cool
'Cause I wanna see you
You, you, you, you

Can we please never ever turn out like them, babe?
They smile and pose for photos 'til the picture fades
I want to keep the world away 'cause you're so precious to me
I hate the world today, but it will not be the death of me
Tell the kids to do what they want and never care how it looks
I'm an old school romantic, call me crazy if you want
When I met you, I stopped trying to keep my cool
I wanna scream and shout it out at the top of my lungs that

You make me lose my cool
Confused, I forgot the rules to play
So forget the game
Take off your cool now, don't be ashamed
You make me lose my cool
It's true, so forget the rules, don't play
Baby, lose the games
Take off your cool now, don't be afraid

Baby, take off your cool
'Cause I wanna see you
You, you, you, yeah, you
Baby, take off your cool
'Cause I wanna see you, yeah, you

I don't know what you've done to me
But suddenly, I'm feeling things
I just can't control
I don't know what you want from me
But every time I try to leave
You just won't let go
I don't know what you've done to me
But suddenly, I'm feeling things
I just can't control
I don't know what you want from me
But every time I try to leave
You just won't let go

Don't let go
Just keep holding on to love
All I do, all I know
Is keep holding on to love

'Cause in the night
I'm sleepless without you
Yeah, you are the calm throughout the storm
I need you here to keep me warm
And I won't pretend that things are okay
Whenever I'm without you, babe
It don't feel right, it don't feel safe

I don't know what you've done to me
But suddenly, I'm feeling things
I just can't control
I don't know what you want from me
But every time I try to leave
You just won't let go
I don't know what you've done to me
But suddenly, I'm feeling things
I just can't control
I don't know what you want from me
But every time I try to leave
You just won't let go

It's Just Us


When you smiled at me
Something changed in my brain chemistry
A love felt infinitely
Was my heart's remedy, oh
Kicked out the house as a teen
But I was on my own much longer it seemed
Well, wonder what I would see
If I could walk away from me

Heaven on earth may fade away
But you and I are forever to stay in love
'Cause I don't care about much anymore, it's just us
The way that you are is fascinating
You and I are forever to stay in love
Love, ooh-woah

How heavy are the words
That were left unspoken? Mmm
And money isn't the root
Of evil these days, it's attention
The things that used to drive me out my mind turned meaningless
Had to learn to rearrange my mind and be in peace
Are the things we want in life only deceiving us?
When time is a thief, I won't let it rob me 'cause

Heaven on earth may fade away
But you and I are forever to stay in love
'Cause I don't care about much anymore, it's just us
The way that you are is fascinating
You and I are forever to stay in love
Love, ooh-woah

For: You


Tell me what's your mind (your mind)
For you, I'd die a thousand times
Find you in every life (ah-ah)
For you, I'd dive into your tears
And swim the deepest sea (shoo-ba-doo)
My baby (shoo-ba-doo)
Ain't nothing in this world (shoo-ba-doo) that means more to me (ba-da, ba-da)
Not anything

And just as constant as the air I breathe
I'd do anything to keep my baby safe
Whatever it takes

Love is a gun
I'll bite the bullet
Wasn't that enough for you?
I'd do it again
Somehow, it's good for the soul
Yeah, if I could
I'd bite the bullet
What I would do, it's all for you
Ah-ah, ah

Don't play with my heart, that's like playing with an open blade
For you, I'd dive into your brain
I would take all your pain (shoo-ba-doo)
For you (shoo-ba-doo), I'd wrap my heart around you
There's no greater love (ba-da, ba-da)
Not anything

And long as blood is running through my veins
Even in the afterlife, I'll always keep
My baby safe

Love is a gun
I'll bite the bullet
Wasn't that enough for you?
I'd do it again
Somehow, it's good for the soul
Yeah, if I could (if I could)
I'd bite the bullet
What I (what I) would do (would do), it's all for you

All for you
It's all for you, you
All for you
It's all for you

Silk Lingerie,


I do
Yeah, I do
Yeah, I do

You wanna see me out my silk lingerie
Estás en mi mente every night and every day
'Cause something about you is so different than them
Yeah, I don't know how you know exactly what to say
Somehow, you know, know, know how

Tell me, how do you do it?
Wish everyone was perfect as you
How did you fall for someone complicated and flawed as me?
I don't know how you do it
But you got my heart black and blue
'Cause it's fallen for you
For you

Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
La-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da

These pretty tears got my heart super soaked
I start to drown from the inside out
'Cause something about this society's all wrong
Yeah, I don't know how the world goes on as it does
I don't know how, know, know how

Tell me, how do you do it?
If only I was perfect as you
How did you fall for someone complicated and flawed as me?
I don't know how you do it
For you got my heart black and blue
'Cause it's falling for you
For you

Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh

Territorial


Don't play dumb, know you know
I get reckless, I can't help it
Damn, I need some discipline
For myself
I get reckless, I can't help it
I get territorial

But at least I never been the
Type to want someone else's man, see
You should know what's mine is mine
Don't try and pretend to be my friend
'Cause I see you for what you are
Your desperation's gone too far
At first, it was just laughable
Now you're getting me out of character

That's cool, yeah, it's cool
I'll be a villain in your story
You can play the victim too
Yeah, it's cool
Once I claim my territory
I get territorial

Da-dum, da-dum
Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum
Da-dum, da-dum
I get territorial

See, I look like an angel, walk like an angel
Sometimes, I might even talk like an angel
But there's danger, me, I keep it graceful
Te falto el respeto, well, I get disrespectful too

Why would I come respectfully
About you disrespecting me?
My claws come out fast when they try to crawl to my territory
See, I'm a lover, but I'll go to war about mine, toe to toe
I'll use your face to mop the floor
Get me out of character (get me out of character)

Oh, that's cool, yeah, it's cool
I'll be a villain in your story
You can play the victim too
Yeah, it's cool
Once I claim my territory
I get territorial

Fall Apart,


Do you love me even when I get difficult?
Do you love me even when I'm down and out?
Do you love me even when I'm not prettiest?
Do you love me for my mind, my soul, and heart?

I know you do, I know you do
I know you do, yeah, I know you do
We're in an eternal honeymoon
'Cause you love me for my mind, my soul, and heart

I don't need nobody that's chasing
Things they can replace when all's said and done
Ooh, you know I love how you chase me
Across constellations like shooting stars

I love that our love is so patient
This love that I waited my whole life for
I love when we go through the phases
But what never changes is you by my side

I need you by my side
It's you by my side
I need you by my side
Yeah, it's you by my side
I need you by my side
It's you by my side

This is Earth, you don't have to be perfect here

Yeah, you love me even when I get difficult
'Cause you love me even when I'm down and out
Yeah, you love me even when I'm not prettiest
'Cause you love me for my mind, my soul, and heart

Yeah, you love me even when I get difficult
Do you love me even when I fall apart?
Yeah, you love me even when I'm not prettiest
'Cause you love me for my mind, my soul, and heart

For my heart
For my heart
For my heart
Do you, do you love me?

Do you love me? Do you love me?

All I Can Say


All I can say (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Is that you belong with me (ooh-ooh-ooh)
And a dreamer should dream (ooh-ooh-ooh)
How else would dreams turn reality? (Woah)

And my peace of mind
No, it will not be destroyed
By lost souls on the decline
Who only strive to divide

No, I'm not sorry for the way that I am
I'm not sorry for the way that I love or the heart that I have
No, I'm not sorry for the dreams that I dream
Or the life that I live 'cause it all belongs to me

And that's all that I can say

No, I'm not sorry for the way that I am
I'm not sorry for the way that I love or the heart that I have
No, I'm not sorry for the dreams that I dream
Or the life that I live, and that's all that I can say

Daggers!


They shoot daggers from their eyes
At my pretty baby (at my pretty baby, at my pretty)
'Cause she's sweet as cherry pie
And they can't have a slice (they can't have a slice, not a bite)
They shoot daggers from their eyes (daggers from their eyes)
At my angel baby (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
'Cause she's warmer than the summertime
And they can't steal her light
No matter how they try

I hate the way that he treats you (hate the way that he treats you)
Too dumb to know what he's got (too dumb to know what he's got)
You're just too loyal, too sweet
You lay yourself at his feet
And tell me all for what? (All for nothing much)
Well, you keep crying on the phone to me (you keep crying on the phone to me)
How can I tell you to leave
A hundred thousand times?
I wish you saw yourself the way I see you
Wish you could see yourself through my eyes (my eyes)

They shoot daggers from their eyes
At my pretty baby (at my pretty baby, at my pretty)
'Cause she's sweet as cherry pie
And they can't have a slice (they can't have a slice, not a bite)
They shoot daggers from their eyes (daggers from their eyes)
At my angel baby (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
'Cause she's warmer than the summertime
And they can't steal her light
No matter how they try

Breaks my heart every time you cry
You cried an ocean at this point
Breaks my heart every time you cry
I'm just a message in a bottle
Wish you'd stop wasting all your life
You cried an ocean at this point
I'm just a message in a bottle
In the ocean of your tears

Angels All Around Me...


Yeah, angels watching over me
Yeah, there's angels
All around me
Yeah, much more than the eye can see
Yeah, there's angels
Watching over me

When life was dangerous
You would cover me (cover me)
Under your angel wings (angel wings)
And with a little patience
I saw all the changes
Who knew life could be (life could be)
So sugary sweet? (Sugary sweet)
I never knew

Certainly, divine protection
Keeps us safe from harm, all along
He's merciful, He's merciful, it's true
'Cause every step I take
I know I'm not alone, not alone
The light covers me deep down to my bones

Yeah, angels watching over me
Yeah, there's angels all around me
Yeah, much more than the eye can see
Yeah, there's angels watching over me

Rejection was the highest protection
You pushed me in the right direction
And you showed me what wasn't true love
Then you sent some from above
And now I know
What love is

Love is action
Making things happen
Love is compassion
Lifting you up when
Life ever let's you down
Making my soul smile
Trust when you're not around
You're still safe and sound
'Cause you're not alone

Yeah, angels watching over me
Yeah, there's angels all around me
Yeah, much more than the eye can see
Yeah, there's angels watching over me

Watching over me
Watching over me

Know your heart
Your heart
Know your heart
Your heart
Know, know, know your heart

Let us pray
The stars in your eyes will never fade
And I pray
For your happiness 'bout every day
Never afraid
Don't you ever walk in fear, baby
'Cause I'll be
By your side every step of the way

And when I lay my head to sleep
I pray for our protection and peace
And every single time I wake
I pray that pain will stay away

Gotta be the change you wanna see
Baby, hold my hand and let us pray
Pray, pray, pray, pray
Every night and day
Pray, pray, pray, pray
For some empathy
Pray, pray, pray, pray
Baby, let us pray

Let us pray
For the children every single day
Let them play
Let them sing and laugh infinitely
And I pray
That everyone can find a little empathy

We don't gotta understand each other
We just gotta let each other be

Breeze!


One thing I learned in this life for sure
There's no need to worry or fear 'cause those emotions hold no worth
Hand to my heart, I won't forget to pray when I feel weak
Forgive them, for they know not what they do

Let it be easy as a breeze (easy as a breeze)
Love will provide us with everything we need (we need, we need)
Let it be easy as a breeze (easy as a breeze)
Let the love guide us, let the love set you free (ooh-ooh)

It's your life, won't let them take what's mine
Waiting for the sun to rise, some said that I was wasting time
Said I was waiting on a dream that would never come true
Now life is sweeter than my favorite perfume and warmer than June's breezy afternoons

Let it be easy as a breeze (easy as a breeze)
Love will provide us with everything we need (it's all that we need, love's all we need)
Let it be easy as the breeze (easy as a breeze)
Let the love guide us, let love be all we need (ooh-ooh)

Sunshine & Rain...


(Good morning, sunshine)

I do nothing in the dark 'cause I believe in karma (ah-ah)
When will I forgive my heart for always getting me in trouble? (Ah-ah-ah)
God knows I play my part and always understands me
So used to everyone misunderstanding
Wish I didn't let my emotions run the way they ran me (ah-ah)
Gave you my heart to hold, will I end up empty-handed? (Ah-ah-ah)
Riding through the storm brought me much-needed clarity

I just had an epiphany

Through sunshine and rain, as seasons change
We all need somebody that makes the Earth feel heavenly
Maybe I'll be that somebody 'cause you're that someone to me
Through sunshine and rain, as seasons change
We all need somebody that makes the Earth feel heavenly
Maybe I'll be that somebody 'cause you're that someone to me

Perfect as you are
You're perfect to me, baby
Lovers never say goodbye
Let's stay in love forever

And I've always been a hopeless romantic (ah-ah)
No matter how many times it went and did me damage (ah-ah-ah)
At least I'm not scared to live, they'll never understand it (understand it)
At least we're not like them, that'd be catastrophic (catastrophic)
Like, whatever happened to the human race? (Ah-ah)
Did everyone's brains get melted and deranged? (Ah-ah-ah)
Bitches backwards to me
When was it that your lost your common sense?

The world needs an epiphany

Through sunshine and rain, as seasons change
We all need somebody that makes the Earth feel heavenly
Baby, I'll be that somebody 'cause you're that someone to me (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Through sunshine and rain, as seasons change
We all need somebody that's makes the Earth feel heavenly (ah-ah)
Baby, I'll be that somebody 'cause you're that someone to me (ah-ah-ah)

Perfect as you are, you're perfect to me, baby
Keep holding me close like cotton on my skin, baby
Soft as summer rain, you and I look good together
Lovers never say goodbye, let's stay in love forever

As seasons change, through sunshine and rain
Let's stay in love forever
As seasons change, through sunshine and rain, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Come shine or rain
Come shine or rain
It's all the same, it's all the same

ILYSMIH


I love my baby, nothing else compares
It's something 'bout those brown eyes that leaves me full of tears, crying
Know the world is crazy, but you're here
My baby made me realize that nothing else even matters

Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
And I can't stop the tears, my baby's really here
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
He showed me what my life was really worth
Down here on earth
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts

For once in my life, I'm not alone anymore
See, my heart had a dream to be a part of a family
Yeah, it took some time
But this moment Was worth all the pain
He's living proof that dreams do come true
Look at you

Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
And I can't stop the tears, my baby's really here
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
He showed me what my life was really worth
Down here on earth
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts, it hurts
Yeah, it hurts, yeah, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts

Back to: Kali Uchis


Sincerely (stylized as Sincerely,) is the fifth studio album by American singer Kali Uchis. It was released on May 9, 2025, through Capitol Records. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 with 62,000 units, making it her third consecutive top-ten album in the country.

Following the release of her fourth studio album and second Spanish-language album Orquídeas in January 2024, as well as the deluxe edition Orquídeas Parte 2, Uchis announced that she had her next album ready in an interview with Billboard on June 4, 2024. She further teased an upcoming album later that week at the Billboard Mujeres Latinas en la Música ceremony

In March 2025, the singer revealed that a "life-altering" event inspired her new album but did not disclose any details about it. She later revealed that the death of her mother and the birth of her first child inspired the album. Uchis stated that the album is dedicated to her mother and she wanted to immortalize her in the album. According to Uchis, Sincerely is about the "complexities of life" and trying to "find joy in life despite the world", "appreciate every moment and not take life for granted". After listening back to the album after its completion, the singer noticed many things in its lyrics "that fully encapsulate" the way she felt at the moment.

In May 2025, Uchis announced The Sincerely, Tour in support of the album. It is set to begin on August 14, 2025 in Portland and conclude on September 25, 2025 in Denver, with Thee Sacred Souls opening.

Stefanie Fernández of Rolling Stone wrote, "The acceptance Uchis finds on the latter half of the album doesn't come at the expense of the chaos and insecurity she sings about earlier on. It's all there, together: love and hurt, heaven and earth, birth and loss."
