Long Time
When me say "Sono italiano"
Yuh think meh mafios but call me "Gentiluomo"
I'm the original lover "Latino"
Yes baby girl meh say "Bella ti amo"
Proprio like "Rodolfo Valentino"
Inna di style "Mediterraneo"
Yes, I sing "In Salentino"
But now me come in "Jamaicano"
Becah
Ah long time di ragga dem ready
I know that from roots and rocksteady
The great Bob Marley and the one Scratch Perry
Nah figet Dennis Brown, yes the revolutionary
Wine yuh "Bacino" an move up yuh body
Anytime yuh see mi man yuh know see mi ready
Real compact an yuh know see mi heavy
Pop of the lyrics dem just like a uzi
Ra Ra Ra everybody get busy
Some ah smoke marijuana and some drink frizzy
Salento, Jamaica and New York City
Yuh see reggae music everybody love it
Don Rico mi name and mi come from Salento
Di land where wi have a big movimento
Lot of soundcrew an whole gyal
Have inna di mind di heart only One Sentimento
Dem love dis, dem want dis
Dem naw love see di mafia work wid the police
Cah di first push drugs and shoot and second oppresses people in di streets
But mi original Ganjaman and shoot dem pon the beat
Big up to di foundations, big up to all di artist dem
Cah is give mi di inspiration fi start to sing
Big up to all Rastaman, saluta la mi Vergin dem
Listen mi words pon di riddim again
When me say "Sono italiano"
Yuh think meh mafios but call me "Gentiluomo"
I'm the original lover "Latino"
Yes baby girl meh say "Bella ti amo"
Proprio like "Rodolfo Valentino"
Inna di style "Mediterraneo"
Yes, I sing "In Salentino"
But now me come in "Jamaicano"
When me say "Sono italiano"
Yuh think meh mafios but call me "Gentiluomo"
I'm the original lover "Latino"
Yes baby girl meh say "Bella ti amo"
Proprio like "Rodolfo Valentino"
Inna di style "Mediterraneo"
Yes, I sing "In Salentino"
Listen some verses in mi patois pon dis "suono"
