Burning |
Oo-oo-oo-ooh |
Oo-oo-oo-ooh |
(Come wid di fyah) |
Come wid di fyah di city burning down |
Mi jus a tun it up higher and keep it burning |
It a bun like a tire mi have a burning sound |
And if mi try fi retire mi leave dem yearning |
Nuttin cyaa out my flame, no it cyaa quench, cyaa cool, cyaa tame |
Since the devil nuh like it, him say fi turn it down |
So mi jus give him the fyah and mek it burn him |
Koffee pon di street |
Tank top inna di heat |
Jjeans pants an' crocks |
No socks deh pon mi feet |
Knapsack when mi a beat |
Well pack up an' it neat |
Stay woke, no sleep |
Mi nuh likkle bo-peep |
Money pon mi mind but mi neva have a coin |
Nah cuss mi jus a hustle fi di pretty dolla sign |
A Neva nuff fun time |
Life rough sometime |
But mi know me an me mommy affi si di sunshine |
Dats why mi… |
Come wid di fyah di city burning down |
Mi jus a tun it up higher and keep it burning |
It a bun like a tire mi have a burning sound |
And if mi try fi retire mi leave dem yearning |
Nuttin cyaa out my flame, no it cyaa quench, cyaa cool, cyaa tame |
Since the devil nuh like it, him say fi turn it down |
So mi jus give him the fyah and mek it burn him |
(Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn) |
Seet yah wah become a Peter |
Mommy seh be Doctor |
Granny seh be preacher |
Wah fi be a Rasta |
Daddy see be neata |
Peter neva like dat so him tek di streets-ah |
Everybody born wid a talent yuh fi feature |
Blessings in abundance |
Weh wi fi cherish each-a |
Neva be ungrateful |
Life is such a teacha |
Koffee pon Upsetta track |
See mi bring di heat ya |
Come wid di fyah di city burning down |
Mi jus a tun it up higher and keep it burning |
It a bun like a tire mi have a burning sound |
And if mi try fi retire mi leave dem yearning |
Nuttin cyaa out my flame, no it cyaa quench, cyaa cool, cyaa tame |
Since the devil nuh like it, him say fi turn it down |
So mi jus give him the fyah and mek it burn him |
Run up an' down |
Have dem a run up an' down |
Yea a Koffee wid di Don sound |
Anytime mi come roun' |
A madness pon di compound (Pon di compound) |
Man a tun fool, a tun clown |
But Jah-Jah cover mi journey (Cover mi journey), I beg yuh guide it |
An' any trouble mi see (Trouble mi see), help mi avoid it |
Mi know seh anything mi need God will provide it (Anything) |
And he will still have a day wid me beside it |
Come wid di fyah di city burning down |
Mi jus a tun it up higher and keep it burning |
It a bun like a tire mi have a burning sound |
And if mi try fi retire mi leave dem yearning |
Nuttin cyaa out my flame, no it cyaa quench, cyaa cool, cyaa tame |
Since the devil nuh like it, him say fi turn it down |
So mi jus give him the fyah and mek it burn him |
(Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn) |
