The music make me feel I be Jordan
Now I understand why them say aiye po gan

[Verse 2]
Woihh
Them ah talk what they can't prove
What them can't prove
Cos them want a taste of my food
Gave you my food
Then you talk say I jazz you
Try to be the bigger man cos
God pass you
Feels like I'm coming from my angle
My arrival come fuck up the cycle
Call me psycho
Ain't no telling what I might do
Why you make me
Violate me
Make me bredda pepper man slide through

[Pre-Chorus]
Because the rhythm e plenty gani
Wey give me plenty money
