I going tek unu pon a journey, yu zimme
Through my city
Mek unu know how wi flex, so let's roll
Yow, yow, yow
I pull up on the ends now
Turn the music off but the scent loud (Loud)
Rep my city, make my friends proud (Uh uh)
Fight for the culture, go ten rounds
Twelve for the championship, watch me dance on this (Watch me)
At my mouth corner is the ganja spliff (Yeah)
No more Rizzla, only Lion Pride
Doing the Willie Bounce from side to side
Rastafari seh Jah in I n I (Rastafari)
Watch for di Yeng Yeng riding by
Plus di squaddie dem, we nuh waa problem
One whiff, smell the grades in the oxygen
Just a normal day, nuff people gone away
So I miss the place is what they call to say
There's nowhere like dis
Living a life that's priceless in a crisis
In New Kingston, we vibe, yeah
Throw your hands up in the sky, tonight (Tonight)
We know we got our crime (Yeah)
We just live our lives
But still in our minds
In New Kingston is a vibe
What you know about the route taxi, or the roots from the natty?
With the truth 'bout Selassie, orange juice and a patty (Yeah)
Mind Joe Grind mek a move pon yu catty (Mind)
Real yardman, wi face screw and unhappy (Uh huh)
Put up yu hands dem if you know di anthem
Big up di man dem from Seaview to Grants Pen (Big up)
What you know bout di President and Skeng? (Wha yu know?)
What you know bout hot grabba and blem? (Wha yu know 'bout dat?)
This the lifestyle, Kingston is quite wild
Especially at night time, but there's a fine line
Check the flipside, mansions and sick rides
Every chick fly, plus the whip she drive (Dem gyal deh hot)
Dem ooman deh, yu call dem goodaz (Yeah)
Tell her sum'n sweet, she waa di sugar (Uh huh)
Do dem wrong, yu get bun, all di bulla
In this city, you hafta put out all you coulda
In New Kingston, we vibe, yeah
Throw your hands up in the sky, tonight (Tonight)
We know we got our crime (Yeah)
We just live our lives
But still in our minds
In New Kingston is a vibe
Man ah real yard man from Kingston (Yeah)

Gimme di riddim if yu know fi build one (Sen on)
I'm like Supercat and Big Pun (Whoo)
Skinny though, survive the city roads
Been wid pretty hoes like you see in videos
My style smooth like Biggie flow
I don't plan to die so don't let Diddy know (Nuh mek him know)
You know I'm Jamaican from the spliff I roll (Yeah)
Dragon Stout, no Michelob
Double XL, no pics for Vogue (Uh uh)
On the cover of The Source with the killer pose (Look at me)
Or Unsigned Hype with the iller quote (Yes)
I deserve an Emmy from the scripts I wrote
Never sniffing coke, everything I spit is dope
The opps miss the boat, I left them a little note
In New Kingston, we vibe, yeah
Throw your hands up in the sky, tonight (Tonight)
We know we got our crime (Yeah)
We just live our lives
But still in our minds
In New Kingston is a vibe
