7 rings Lyrics
Yeah, breakfast at Tiffany's and bottles of bubbles
Girls with tattoos who like getting in trouble
Lashes and diamonds, ATM machines
Buy myself all of my favorite things (Yeah)
Been through some bad shit, I should be a sad bitch
Who woulda thought it'd turn me to a savage?
Rather be tied up with calls and not strings
Write my own checks like I write what I sing, yeah (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
My wrist, stop watchin', my neck is flossy
Make big deposits, my gloss is poppin'
You like my hair? Gee, thanks, just bought it
I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it (Yeah)
[Chorus]
I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it
I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it
You like my hair? Gee, thanks, just bought it
I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it (Yep)
[Verse 2]
Wearing a ring, but ain't gon' be no "Mrs."
Bought matching diamonds for six of my bitches
I'd rather spoil all my friends with my riches
Think retail therapy my new addiction
Whoever said money can't solve your problems
Must not have had enough money to solve 'em
They say, "Which one?" I say, "Nah, I want all of 'em"
Happiness is the same price as red-bottoms
My smile is beamin' (Yeah), my skin is gleamin' (Is gleamin')
The way it shine, I know you've seen it (You've seen it)
I bought a crib just for (Just for) the closet (Closet)
Both his and hers, I want it, I got it, yeah
[Chorus]
I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it
I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it (Baby)
You like my hair? Gee, thanks, just bought it (Oh yeah)
I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it (Yep)
[Verse 3]
Yeah, my receipts be lookin' like phone numbers
If it ain't money, then wrong number
Black card is my business card
The way it be settin' the tone for me
I don't mean to brag, but I be like, "Put it in the bag," yeah
When you see them racks, they stacked up like my ass, yeah
Shoot, go from the store to the booth
Make it all back in one loop, gimme the loot
Never mind, I got the juice
Nothing but net when we shoot
Look at my neck, look at my jet
Ain't got enough money to pay me respect
Ain't no budget when I'm on the set
If I like it, then that's what I get, yeah
About
“7 rings,” which features Ariana boasting about money and many other luxuries, including diamonds and houses, is the second official single from Ariana Grande’s fifth studio album, thank u, next after Ariana announced that “imagine” will act as a promotional single for the album. The title is in reference to a collection of matching friendship rings Ariana and six of her friends bought in New York.
On December 1st, Ariana revealed the owners of the rings: herself, Victoria Monét, Courtney Chipolone, Alexa Luria, Tayla Parx, Njomza and Kaydence Krysiuk, all of whom have a writing credit on the song except Courtney and Alexa.
In December 2018, Ariana confirmed via Twitter that the “thank u, next” video featured a “7 rings” snippet, playing a loop of the instrumental at the beginning.
On January 12th, 2019, Ariana tweeted a very small snippet of the song, and then on January 14th, she posted a sneak peek for the music video on her Instagram. Two days later, Ariana uploaded a video of her dancing to the track in the car from 22 December 2018, with a timer counting down to the song’s release. This was also the first time any lyrics were heard.
