CHORUS

True, we no haffi hyp as much as they do

Caribbean we born so you know we stay cool

But we nah go tek disrespect from you

Man a real warrior jus watch how we move

We no haffi hyp as much as they do

Caribbean we born so you know we stay cool

Come ya so go tek disrespect from who

Man a real warrior trust we can’t lose

VERSE 1

Som o dem ah hype up say dem a bad man

Disrespect de fam, you life, e gan

We mek money plenty dat inna Jah Jah plan

And we queens dem sexy carz man a king man

Black beery link up a business plan

Worldwide hustling money nah we hand

De haters ah hate when dem iron lion

Carz dem dun know already say we life line long

Blee, de bassline, drop it again

De queens dem ah dance yeah, drop it again

De life wey we live yeah, live it again

Carz you done know already we bun de haters dem

Blee, de bassline, drop it again

De queens dem ah dance yeah, drop it again

De life wey we live yeah, live it again

Carz you done know already we bun de haters dem

VERSE 2

Man ah Caribbean man born inna montseraat

Mobsta ah rude boy who no tek no back chat

Don’t get it twisted cauz the islands are tiny

Take a look around I got warriors behind me

From the Caymans down to Tobago

Man ah real thugs and we nah really play, no

Not the Kokomo you always see on TV

Things get ugly down here believe

We got French speaking, dutch speaking and Spanish speaking

Islanders that hit up beach parties every weekend

That’s probably why we got the natural coolness

And the smooth swag make you haters look foolish

Caribbean seas, Caribbean sun

Caribbean females, Caribbean fun

Caribbean food, Caribbean rum

I bleed the Caribbean til my days are done

VERSE 3

It ain’t no mystery

That we built for survival check the history

No matter how strong the winds turn or how much fire the earth churns

We stand firm, recover quick, pride is what we preserve

So I show no concern for faces with scars

Or bady’s that been behind bars, we follow a different law

Down here, no matter who you are

Everybody bleed the same blood so fear you, dat nah gwarn star

Yes I respect all people

But please don’t come around me with your celebrity ego

I never respected that and never will

Yo it’s just the way I was raised, ah one Start ting still

So gwarn cool me no really pan no hype ting

You do you and I do me an everyting alright king

I move like a Viking, I cross them seas

With a swagger so complete so, don’t try to compete no
