lyrics

Let Di Riddim

INTRO:
check 1 check 1
checo 1 check 2 (low at end)
check 1 check 1
check 1 check 2 - oo -oo
check 1 check 1
check 1 check 2 (mid-high at end)
check 1 check 1
now wa you wa gwaan do - oo - oo


VERSE 1:
don’t blame me when i try
mi haffi chat up another guy
til you find out what you mean to say
will you mean it like a why-why?
your bye-bye is like a scene (end high)
and you have always been so in-between
don’t even try to tell me
what game it is that you play

HOOK:
kick it up
check the clock
don’t let it get away (boa!)
quick talk
round the block
i forgot your name
in the silence
sparks the flame
send you on your way
take a look inside
then we let di riddim ride


BRIDGE:
when you listen to this sound
you may feel like crying
turn that sound upside down
and you will feel like flying

and you will feel like flying
flying
may even feel like crying
crying
you will feel like flying
fly
no more crying
don’t cry

HOOK:

kick it up
check the clock
don’t let it get away (boa!)
quick talk
round the block
i forgot your name
in the silence
sparks the flame
send you on your way
take a look inside
then we let di riddim ride (ri-i-ide)

BRIDGE:
let di riddim ride
no time fi rewind
press pon di deck
seh mi know i got the time

let di riddim ride
press pon di deck
wheel it and rewind

HOOK/OUTRO

kick it up
check the clock
don’t let it get away (boa!)
quick talk
round the block
i forgot your name
in the silence
sparks the flame
send you on your way
take a look inside
then we let di riddim ride (ri-i-ide)
then we let di riddim ride
then we let di riddim.

Abiyah Cincinnati, Ohio

Boundary-blurring curveball collage of electronica, dancehall, indie rock, avant-hip hop, & punk blended with the fury of a free wild muse.

"Abiyah is the queen of all the mechanical parts of your heart. Her songs let you breathe underwater. She's the only thing your brain and your hips can agree on."
