Burna Boy & DJDS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

We nuh cooperate
Tell them me never like the way di whole ah them ah operate
I ah no separate
These days man ah separating the real from the fake
Cah dem ah create more plan
Fi try get one up on the Don Gorgon
Ah weh you know about Don Gorgon?
Me make your baby turn orphan
Oh God

So tell them man ah royalty, like the prince wey come from Saudi
So if ah me you're looking for, you haffi come across the road
No I don't care, about the tings wah dem ah talk 'bout me
Cah me never see them around me
Dem never come across the road no, dem never come across the road

We nuh cooperate
Tell them me never like the way di whole ah them ah operate
I ah no separate
These days man ah separating the real from the fake
Cah dem ah create more plan
Fi try get one up on the Don Gorgon
Ah weh you know about Don Gorgon?
Me make your baby turn orphan
Oh God

The world is just a sinking boat, me say only the real will float
And will you make it? Only God knows
'Cause it's crazy pon the road
It's like oh Vietnam, all my youngins quick to do you harm
Playing with grenade and bomb
Access to steel and copper, real and proper
Don't make the ting start buss off, back off and seize

We nuh cooperate
Tell them me never like the way di whole ah them ah operate
I ah no separate
These days man ah separating the real from the fake
Cah dem ah create more plan
Fi try get one up on the Don Gorgon
Ah weh you know about Don Gorgon?




Me make your baby turn orphan
Oh God
