Текст[]
[Куплет 1: Джелани Блэкман]
Hey, I don't mind change
I don't like hate (Nah)
See when the sound system break
We make the system shake (Bullet)
When a girl wanna swing my way
Play street with the street that I played
But I'm on a street over here, all saints
Imagine no saints when you wake, hey
That's a good taste, hm, that's a good space
Hey, this ain't my place
Like that's a real wave (Hm)
I'm miss it so deeply
Well, put that shit on my grave
I buck and sway (And sway)
Ten toes for the rave in the ring, hey (Let's)
[Припев: Джелани Блэкман]
I love carnival beers (Go)
It don't feel the samе (Let's)
That's cool, don't get in my way (Go)
In fact, don't migrate
(Lеt's) Yeah, and we like champagne
But we like Red Stripe and we like Wray (Go)
It don't feel the same
That's cool, don't get in my way (Let's go)
[Куплет 2: Джелани Блэкман]
Oh, back in day
Notting Hill weren't no film
Teddy boys on my granddad outside, buy it back
Take 'cuz his bones like steel (Hm)
Salon in Ireland, they were really out there in the field
When the vibe was real, that's why I get out of my feels (Let's go)
And I know that I can't fucking live here still (Go)
[Припев: Джелани Блэкман]
It don't feel the same (Let's)
That's cool, don't get in my way (Go)
In fact, don't migrate
(Let's) Yeah, we like champagne
But we like Red Stripe and we like Wray (Go)
It don't feel the same
That's cool, don't get in my way (Let's go)
[Бридж: 2-D и Баррингтон Леви]
Yeah, it's just the same as I thought it would be
When I was in carnival
I followed your principle
Do you really think I'd leave you?
Meanwhile
[Припев: Джелани Блэкман]
(Let's)
Uh, I love carnival bass (Go)
It don't feel the same (Let's)
That's cool, don't get in my way (Go)
In fact, don't migrate (Let's)
Yeah, we like champagne
But we like Red Stripe and we like Wray (Go)
It don't feel the same
That's cool, don't get in my way (Let's go)
[Бридж: 2-D и Баррингтон Леви]
Yeah, it's just the same as I thought it would be
When I was in carnival
Dancing on protocol
Do you really think I'd forget you?
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
[Припев: Джелани Блэкман]
Said I love carnival bass
It don't feel the same
That's cool, don't get in my way
In fact, don't migrate
Mmm, we like champagne
But we like Red Stripe and we like Wray
It don't feel the same
That's cool, don't get in my way
