Marlon explained that this song is about an “abstract idea of a big brother or father figure.”

[Intro]
Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, woo-woo
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do
[Verse 1]

Ah, he walks with the Atua
Nothing can touch my boy

Do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do
