Wiley/Rymez/Ms D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then we ain't got to worry, we're nice for the day
Inspired by the sun, take flight for the day
Sippin' a cold beer, sunshine in your face
Long nights are crazy we are on them
My name's Wiley yeah play my song then
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance, put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
When the sun's out see the gyaldem too
I wake up do another gyaldem tune
I ride out on my Yamaha R6
When I reach in the dance, bring the gyaldem through
Gyaldem know so they wanna wind up
I get behind her and she get wile up
She back it up good but I try my luck
Wining up gyal is the vibe I love
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
I've got vibes to sell people want them
My name's Wiley yeah play my song then
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
Causing a heatwave, causing a heatwave, causing a heatwave
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance, put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
When the sun's out we just wanna impress
I stand in the clear I don't bother with mess
If it ain't gonna sell I don't wanna invest
If it ain't got a vibe I ain't got a interest
I wanna see a ice-cream van on the road
I wanna see a light skin gyal on the road
I wanna get a slush puppy with both flavours
Drink that now I'm right back in my zone
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
I got vibes to sell people want them
My name's Wiley yeah play my song then
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
Causing a heatwave, causing a heatwave, causing a heatwave
When I arrive I'm causing a heatwave
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance, put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on my body
I'ma party, I'm gon' dance put your hands up on my body
On my body, on my body, put your hands up on m-m-y
When the sun's out see the gyaldem too
I wake up do another gyaldem tune
I ride out on my Yamaha R6
When I reach in the dance, bring the gyaldem through
Gyaldem know so they wanna wind up
I get behind her and she get wile up
She back it up good but I try my luck
Wining up gyal is the vibe I love
When the sun's out we just wanna impress
I stand in the clear I don't bother with mess
If it ain't gonna sell I don't wanna invest
If it ain't got a vibe I ain't got a interest
I wanna see a ice-cream van on the road
I wanna see a light skin gyal on the road
I wanna get a slush puppy with both flavours
Drink that now I'm right back in my zone
"Heatwave" is a song by English grime artist Wiley, featuring Rymez and Ms D. The lyrics of the song are about enjoying the summer season and dancing all day and night in the sun. The opening lines, "If I draw 5 for the day, then we ain't got to worry, we're nice for the day. Inspired by the sun, take flight for the day, sippin' a cold beer, sunshine in your face" talk about spending a carefree day in the sun, enjoying a cold beer with the warm rays on your face. The subsequent lines are about embracing the summer vibes and letting go of inhibitions to dance and party all night long.
The chorus, "I'ma party, I'm gon' dance, put your hands up on my body" speaks to the infectious energy that comes with partying in the heat of summer. The song's title and catchy chorus, "When I arrive, I'm causing a heatwave" not only refers to the literal heat of summer but also to the excitable atmosphere that Wiley creates when he arrives.
The song has a distinct Hip-Hop feel with grime overlays. It was released in August 2012 and was a commercial success, peaking at number 1 on the UK Singles Chart. It was certified platinum in the UK, selling over 600,000 copies.

Drinking a cold beer with the sun shining in your face

We're out and about enjoying our nights to the fullest
