[Intro]

Uh, CL Smooth

The Mecca Don

Uh


[Verse 1]

Fresh off the plane, spliff rolled, bags trunked

Couple broads in back, what's that? Slam dunk

Five deep in the port, Smooth in the middle car

And we take no checks, over stand me so far?

Speedin' all through Ochi, guap kept closely

A little town called Priory, mark it in your diary

I par' with Ram Dog, the late great Willie

Wanna know what the chin is brewin', lightin' my Cuban

Once my slippers is touchin' sand, soakin' up a tan

The only position I'm holdin', is chain of command

And that's word to Chuggy Zu, this is not a fluke

On the strength keep dancin', bobu, this is my salute

Party with Dons like the Roy Fowl, keep your head up king

And that's from me to you the real thing

Paper trail on a global scale, mind, soul, and body

Likе Claude Massop and Bob Marley


[Chorus]

Just like thе duke, that cling to dough

I cling to you, my love (That's the island)

I can't erase, the memories

Of things we used to do (Do it big)

You remind me of, the golden sun

That shines after the storm (For my ladies)

Oh how we used, to plan a life

In Dream Land for a stroll


[Verse 2]

Said it was written, "He who judge cast the first stone"

I'm back home, the Milk River heals my bone

Rise to tea mint in Mount Circe, dumplin' and steamed fish early

Sour sap juice mixed with nutriment and Guinness

Been about my business, me and Dog leave the country

Headed for town, where at night you don't stop at a red light

You get rushed, you get your throat cut, think not?

Where most times you can't find me in a tourist spot

I'm in Waterhouse, eatin' porterhouse

Where them mothers all biddin' for they daughter's hand

I'm crackin' lobsters worth twenty grand, why they can't take my crown

I'm into classic Sunday nights, Ray Town

We're the one to chase down, next day, all new faces

How I sponsor soccer matches and car races

Just the pioneer of the music, show you how it moves me

The second comin' of Jack Ruby


[Chorus]

Just like the duke, that cling to dough

I cling to you, my love (That's the island)

I can't erase, the memories

Of things we used to do (Do it big)

You remind me of, the golden sun

That shines after the storm (For my ladies)

Oh how we used, to plan a life

In Dream Land for a stroll


[Verse 3]

I wear it like mosquito repellant, tokin' that A-grade bud

When all they love to taste is foreign blood

Under palm trees with no concern, how my third world turn

In all my walkways, torches burn

In the hills of Hollywood, overlookin' Kingston

To sacrifice for the people from this view sink in

To climb that mountain, stay countin' with a stack

Move on a gift wrap, sold it to 'em, rob it back

Laid up in a Ritz-Carlton, see them big dons come check me

And old-foots connect me

Like the Knights of the Round Table, Black Heart's the label

I'm just the hand that rocks the cradle

Straight up play beachfront, cameras on the gate

Just to deal it, no way, to smuggle it? Can't wait

I told you once, I told you twice, the ultimate price

Is what dips my shotties to paradise


[Outro]

I pray the stars, may safely keep

And watch you while you sleep (Real talk)

And day by day, the sun will shine

As you trot along the way (Rewind)

I pray the stars, may safely keep

And watch you while you sleep (Real talk)

And day by day, the sun will shine

As you trot along the way
