Trinidad

Up in Trinidad
Up in Trinidad

Up in Trinidad, ocean waves, we hit the sands
Summer vibes, time to link up, hit the motherland
We be coming straight from London just to meet the fam
Got New Yorkers flying in, that's that Brooklyn gang

Flying flags, sipping rum as we follow bands
Soca on repeat, coming from the steel pans
Love the music just as much as I love a tan
Getting darker on a beach with a drink in hand

Just landed. Tax-free standard
White Henny in the cup, no blending
Me and Kay sip it straight, that's exclusive
Caribbean juices flowing with the music

Booked a house with a view and a blue car
Uptown, had a mansion up in Carenage
Overlook the sea, clear skies and palm trees
Waking up to birds and the pedigrees

Hit the beach, sipping Carib on the shore
Bake and shark, I just add a little sauce
Roti, had it filled with the spices
Looking to get peppered with a hottie I can vibes with

Zip-lining had us swinging on the vine
Seeing views from the Caribbean heights
I'm just watching for the birds that be fly
That's a brown skin girl with the Asian in the eyes

Red, black and white stripes
868 on my phone line
Love the way the sun shine
Trinidad, Tobago, my bloodline

Up in Trinidad, ocean waves, we hit the sands
Summer vibes, time to link up, hit the motherland
We be coming straight from London just to meet the fam
Got New Yorkers flying in, that's that Brooklyn gang

Flying flags, sipping rum as we follow bands
Soca on repeat, coming from the steel pans
Love the music just as much as I love a tan
Getting darker on a beach with a drink in hand

J'ouvert, we be covered dripping cool aid
Red paint being thrown leaving art stains
A culture we express from the slave days
Once every year got released from them tight chains

A little rest, then we party for two
Monday, we would start to get loose
Tuesday, catch me in the avenue
Eating food, getting waved, I be sipping rum and juice

I'm so waved, that I start to lose my balance
Playing mass in a band with my cousin
Carnival on the stage at savannah
Living life, that's recordings getting caught on the camera

Memories end the night with a fete
Masquerade party didn't finish till late
On the beach in the sun, cooled down with a spray
We emerge from the ocean, that's an Atlantic wave

Red, black, and white stripes
868 on my phone line
Love the way the sun shine
Trinidad.Tobago- my bloodline

Up in Trinidad, ocean waves, we hit the sands
Summer vibes, time to link up, hit the motherland
We be coming straight from London just to meet the fam
Got New Yorkers flying in, that's that Brooklyn gang

Flying flags, sipping rum as we follow bands
Soca on repeat, coming from the steel pans
Love the music just as much as I love a tan
Getting darker on a beach with a drink in hand

Up in Trinidad
Up in Trinidad
Link up, hit the motherland
Up in Trinidad

Up in Trinidad, ocean waves, we hit the sands
Summer vibes, time to link up, hit the motherland
We be coming straight from London just to meet the fam
Got New Yorkers flying in, that's that Brooklyn gang

Flying flags, sipping rum as we follow bands
Soca on repeat, coming from the steel pans
Love the music just as much as I love a tan
Getting darker on a beach with a drink in hand
