lyrics

(Hook)
Before I left my home
Mama told me so
Baby protect your soul
Cause the streets is cold
Anywhere I go
Jah put me pon Him shoulders
Oh what a Godly flow
Oil must be running over
Over
(Verse 1)
Mama don’t you worry I got this
I’m too slick
They can’t top my confidence
And it’s wheels like Usain how I run this
It’s too quick
They can’t test my competence
I been lit
they said I’m too different with it
Won’t quit
And just like a flower pon the concrete
I never been bothered by this one bit
It is what it is
The gyal dem a fi bruk up their waist pon dis
They wonder what a badman don lace pon dis
riddim upon riddim, different algorithm
E no get how you nack am, I just can’t miss
Still stepping on your jugular
Style nuh ever regular
Let me put you on a next flow,
I got several a dem,
I make her do the Macarena
When the riddim put her in another realm
It’s too much fi dem
(Hook)
Before I left my home
Mama told me so
Baby protect your soul
Cause the streets is cold
Anywhere I go
Jah put me pon Him shoulders
Oh what a Godly flow
Oil must be running over
Over
(Verse 2)
Ororo dey in abundance
She wan dance
She dey watch me like I dey screen for Sundance As a sure boy I go pop off I got bands
They know I’m bad, they’re all in accordance
Let me run it right back you know
It’s not funny kind of money I stack you know
They can’t hold me when I run upon the riddim like a Tommy gun Now wey I don master the art
You can call me Van Gogh
Bad belle pack up your shit and go
awon mo mi winana ko ma ro
Je ko ma ro
Je ko ma ro
no go disturb am
Je ko ma jo
Timmy turn up don come again with another one
Different species, there won’t be another one
by the time I’m finished there won’t be a better run no (Hook)
Before I left my home
Mama told me so
Baby protect your soul
Cause the streets is cold
Anywhere I go
Jah put me pon Him shoulders
Oh what a Godly flow
Oil must be running over
Over
