Wiley feat. Ms D Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

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 got vibes to sell, people want them

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

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

I wanna get a slush puppy with both flavours

Overall Meaning

"Heatwave" by Wiley feat. Ms D is a classic summer anthem that celebrates the joys of the season with its upbeat tempo and celebratory lyrics. The song speaks of drawing 5 for the day, which means having five pounds to spend and being carefree all day long. Wiley talks about living in the moment, partying and dancing with the people he cares about, and enjoying the warm sun and cold beer on his face. The song is an ode to living life to the fullest and not caring about tomorrow, living recklessly and enjoying the present. When Wiley arrives, he causes a heatwave, bringing with him his infectious vibe that makes the gyaldem (West Indian slang for girls) go wild. His energy is contagious, and the people who play his song become part of the party, contributing to the heatwave that's taking over the streets.


Wiley speaks to the gyaldem directly, telling them that they're also part of the heatwave, as they come out to play when the sun is out, and they wind up and back up good, which is the vibe that Wiley loves. He doesn't want to invest or involve himself in anything that doesn't have a vibe, and he wants to see ice-cream vans on the road, slush puppies with both flavours, and light-skinned gyaldem. The song takes listeners on a journey of the carefree summer days spent with loved ones, enjoying the little pleasures of life that make us happy.
