[Verse 1]
Stand up like a soldier baby
Yeah, I know you're built like that
Gun it like a holster baby
Show dem' seh' you wicked like that

We live where the war is raging
Chasing our crazy dreams
Hoping that the bridge won't cave in
Tonight we'll let it all go free

[Pre-Chorus]
Gimme di' thing and mek' me rock inna' di dance
Gimme di' thing and mek' me rock inna' di' dance
Mash it up, hot step inna' di' dance

Gimme di' thing and mek' me rock inna' di dance
Gimme di' thing and mek' me rock inna' di' dance
Mash it up, hot step inna' di' dance

Set it ablaze like a candle wick
Hotter, hotter, hotter, hotter, hotter

No retreating we nuh' pree that
Never make them hold ya baby

Chasing our crazy dreams
Hoping that the bridge won't cave in
