Text:
Anuh everybody a go like we
Still we irie
‘Cah mi nuh love likes
Inna dancehall style
(Anuh everybody a go like we)
Still me irie
‘Cah we no love likes, no
So every time me voice
Mi dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes)
Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love we nuh dweet fi di likes)
Mek dem know, success don’t come overnight
Mek dem know a substance over hype
Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes)
‘Nuff a dem love likes, dat don’t right
Si dung and a post and a tweet whole night
See dem pon social media ah type
Gwaan like say dem deh ah studio ah voice
How me never buck dem up pon no flight?
And me never see dem ah live no tour life
You Mr. man, how you have so much likes? (Mmm)
Ah Marley still ah lead pon iTunes
Simply mean we nuh ready yet
We fi put the music first, dancehall
While we deh ya, and a war and a hype
Ri-ri ah work, work, work dancehall
So when you see me hail Selassie I (now)
And every show weh we headline (now)
No wi nuh dweet fi di likes
Mek we tell dem
We dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes)
Dweet fi di love me no dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love mi nuh dweet fi di likes)
Never tell di youths fi buss nuh shot and queng dem
Instead mi tell dem sell di gun an buy a yeng yeng
‘Cah wi dweet fi di love we nuh dweet fi di likes
(Dweet fi di love wi nuh dweet fi di likes)
Dem nuh like we but we nuh response
Fly out and mek dem love we from a distance
Come home fi two weeks vacation
Nuff a dem still stuck inna di quick sand
Nuff mi hear a seh dem ah di big man
Inna Jamaica ah dem have di hit song
Ah Gentleman mi hear ah play ah Finland
Me never hear dem play inna Pakistan
Simply mean we no ready yet
Stop gwaan like ah you own dancehall
While we deh ya, and a war and a hype
Nuh Drake a control dancehall, controlla
Give me a beat and a mic
Ready fi go studio go voice
When me put da song ya pon mi timeline
No mi nuh dweet fi di likes, mek me tell dem
We do it fi di love we nuh do it for the likes
(Do it fi di love we no do it for the likes)
Do it fi di love mi no do it for the likes
(Do it fi di love mi nuh do it for the likes)
Skanking to the beat, everybody move yuh feet
Granny know fi dweet and mi mommy know how fi dweet
Wha’ppen to dem?
(Do it fi di love mi nuh do it for the likes)
When mi mix da tune ya an drop it like a bomb
