I Told Them... Album Lyrics by Burna Boy

I Told Them

One, two, three, woah
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yo, yo
I told them (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yo, yo)
I told them (Yo, yo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yo, yo)
(Yo, yo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yo, yo)
I told them, woah (Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yo, yo)

I told them I'm a genius, I had to show them what the meaning is
Hundred thousand hands, where the ceiling is?
I told them I'm the highest, with the drip, I'm the flyest
Hundred thousand hands, where the sky is?
Told 'em I'm amazing, they told me I was crazy
Nothing ever changed
I told 'em I'm a giant, real African giant
Self-confident, self-reliant
Told 'em I'm the master, they told me I wouldn't prosper
I tell them say them be bastard
Tell them dem they joke yioo
So make I stop smoking yioo, I be that one jos yo
Me, I dey feel pain, but I move forward and I switch lanes
Because Odogwu no be nickname
They say, "Who be this pesin? ", I told them I'm Big 7
Put am for your body in a split second
Put me on your song, it's a hit record
If I put you on, you a rich nigga
Yes, I told them, I told them I'm a born winner
I stay humble, because I'm a born sinner
I told them that I was the realest
For some reason they didn't believe it, so here we are

(Ooh-ah-ah)
I told them from the start
(Ooh-ah-ah)
Right from the very start
(Ooh-ah-ah)
I told them, I told them, ah-ah
I told them they were gonna see this
For some reason they didn't believe it, so here we are
(Ooh-ah-ah)
I told them from the start
(Ooh-ah-ah)
Right from the very start
(Ooh-ah-ah)
I told them, I told them, ah-ah
I told them they were gonna see this
For some reason they didn't believe it, so here we are

Which one of you is the other?
I wanna join the attempt
We shine light that travels and waves that are unbelievable
Distance and days
Radio, micro, infrared and ultraviolet
Picture so beautiful, I had to film the pilot
Coined a new brand of philosophy
That form images in your mind, quite different from photography
Anointed few, a point of view of the thinkers
No pitch, that's a glitch full of hook lines, and sinkers
The way the wise look at light, the manner of the thoughtful
There is no benefit if it's not resourceful
Fortify, the observers, they get something from it
It become routine, been there and done it
I'm in a place where perception is developed
If you can't walk on these shoes, then your feet would swell up
A medium by which thoughts are made clear
Beneath the surface, but only hurting the inner ear

Pure like water where dey for nylon
I pull up in my high fashion, every light flashing
Anyway
We can go ahead and just head out
And chill up in my villa
Together the whole night
Just get in the drop top, take the head out
And cruise with your head outside

(I'm just tryna be me) go, go ahead, it's your time, baby
It's your time, baby, get wild, baby (I'm just tryna be me)

Her body make me stop the world
(Top of the world, top of the world, top of the world)

Tell me what do we do
When these people don't know

You survived through the night
Through the darkest of times
It's only right that you do what you like

(I'm just tryna be me) go, go ahead, it's your time, baby
It's your time, baby, get wild, baby (I'm just tryna be me)
That's the difference when you're my baby

When you're mine, if it's mine, then it's yours
When you're mine, you get anything you want

It's your time, it's your time
Turn 'em down, turn around and let's go
(I'm just tryna be me, I'm just tryna be me)

And the villa must have come with a beach

Virgil

Yeah, so it's super inspiring
But I think if you can hit on something like super, super, almost
Like psychological about, about how the human race consumes music
And tying it into like a primal thing
You know, I like the idea of too atleast
Like, the concept of the album is very much like storytelling
Is that right, I mean like sharing the story?
So I think the number of ways
That you can get people to have like an "Ah-ha" moment
When they're like consuming
Like you said that two cokes or cigarettes
Or going to the club or getting an outfit to go out
You know, like, selling the album
In those sort of like every day ways
But also like reinforce the creative, you know?
Like, 'cause at the end of the day
You do, you will wanna promote the album in the traditional way
But almost like poking the veil off the curtain of it
But the billboard image should be different
Because, you know, like, the CD cover should be like
Him peeling off the industry or something
But, like reporting the news story that goes along
In the theme of the album
No way this phone just died

Big 7

Big seven, big seven
Big seven, big seven

First of all, rest in peace Virgil Abloh
Don't spill no drink on my clothes when I'm Louis V drippin'
Don't like stress in my dome, and
Straight to the head when I'm 1942 sippin'
Been wavy since Berlin
No dey talk to me in public
Mix my drink with a likkle Molly
Smoke my weed to the claro, oh
Lamborghini driver, 'Rarri 458 Italia
I really, really spent a milli' on just two Richard Milles
And I wear 'em willy-nilly through the city, ayy

Wavy since London
Wavy since Berlin
So no dey talk to me in public
I'm in a different place
If you see me tonight
You can clearly see that I've been wavy since mornin'

Alright, R.I.P. to Sidhu
Put your hands up
Reach for the roof if you know you f*ck with me
Don't like squares in my crew
If I call you my brother, then you best believe you're stuck with me
Been wavy since Berlin
I no go fit take you from nothin'
So I beg you nuh disturb me
I no dey carry overload
Ghetto gospel preacher
Two times community service preacher
Right now I'm chillin'
But my niggas gettin' busy in the city
Spinnin', spinnin' 'til they dizzy for the Lizzie

Wavy since London
Wavy since Berlin
So no dey talk to me in public
No dey talk to me in public
Wavy since Sweden
Wavy since Paris
So no dey talk to me in public

You can clearly see that I've been wavy since mornin'

If I'm Lying

Every day, I just dey give thanks for life
Know how to move 'cause I know sacrifice
Lose control, still hold on tight
Won't be the only time
I'm a soldier, I know how to fight
I make fire when it's cold in the night
If you need a shoulder to cry, then I'll give you mine

And, if I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'
And, if I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'

Won't be the only time
-Y time
-Y time
Won't be the only time
That you're gonna get your heartbroken
You got to learn how to ride the motion

And, if I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'
And, if I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'

Zero, all that I get is zero
Rain fallin' on my window
That's why I sleep under my pillow
Woah, woah, woah
These days I don't sleep no more, no
So, my eyes open wide
At least I know I'm alive

If I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'
If I'm lyin', let the ocean and seas start dryin'
Let the birds in the sky stop flyin'
All the trees in the world start dyin', all start dyin'

Ki ya ma sa, oh, no
Soro, soro, oh, no
Laye, laye, o
Oh
Is this the motherf*cking thanks I get?

You say my mama dance for Fela
You say I no get baby mama
You say that I'm cancelled again
You say I shoot pesin for Cubana (yeah)
Because I wan collect pesin woman (that's how they act, right?)
Is this the motherf*cking thanks I get
For making my people proud every chance I get?

Burna and me, been runnin' this shit for eternity
I fathered a couple of styles, I'm takin' paternity leave
Permanently, they hate, and I'm brushin' the dirt off my sleeve
Steadily talkin' Ms to me, it's like I'm learnin' to read
Sounded it out, takin' my time, countin' it out, slowly
Dust collectin' on the Rollie, me and these beats is holy
Matrimony, feelin' like Axel Foley
In Beverly Hills, coppin' whatever I feel
Cole and Burna, Shaq and Kobe
Winnin' a ring, then we gon' repeat and three-peat
Them nerds hate, they seat geeks
They peepin' us on the low, we like the cheat sheet
Get paid for phrases, I don't believe in free speech
I said it, I meant it, no take backs
I don't even need the receipts, so please miss me with the PC
I be in NYC on a bike with the hood up like I'm E.T
These rappers ain't like me, I'm knee-deep in the concrete
Forever cemented, don't you ever forget it

E go take your mind, woto, woto, oh, no
Passa passa, oh, no
Sare sare, oh, no
Ki ya ma sa, oh, no
Taye taye, oh, no
Jaye, jaye, oh, no, o, oh, no
You go dey reason am rough, rough
Oh, no
Passa, passa, oh, no
Sare, sare oh, no
Ki ya ma sa, oh, no
Soro, soro, oh, no
Laye, laye, o
Oh
Is this the motherf*cking thanks I get?

Burna, I see you
You got the whole world on smash right now
This whole shit is yours, forever how long you want it
Know what I mean?

Talibans II

Da-da-da-da
Da-da
Yow, Kellz

Link with the killy 'dem
Saint Kitts to Trinidad
Big up the whole ah dem
'Cause won kere ninu aye
Anythin' I do
Headline news even wetin I no do
Them go say, "I do"
Nothin' but the truth when I step up in the booth
No lie, my life no be small thing
Remember last Christmas
Santa Claus give me the glizzy with the switch dawg
So some people no go see this Christmas
Mandem have crosses, most of them not even Christians
Click-bang, body sinkin' like the quicksand
Ztekk full of bomb like Afganistan

And everywhere me carry it 'cause me know the enemy them a pree
And me know them nah sorry for me
People a bawl and a scream 'cause we bad and we mean
Bloody crime scene, calamity
A so we shoot out brain fi go Canada, G
Make your marrow experience no gravity

Tell a pussy we no laugh up
We no take talk
Violate, people a dead dawg
You should a keep in a your bed 'cause the Talibans them a make war
We no laugh up
We no take talk
Badness a weh we endorse
We no shoot people fi end up in a Red Cross

Yow, Talibans
Like them need reassurance
Make unuh sleep a yuh yard in a four months
A so we make people a moan out
Like gyal a get f*ck down a whore house
Laff boss full a 'K, that me sure 'bout
And if you see me travel with a 9-X
Anuh no politician weh me a go vote out
Four killer, four seat and four rounds

Them want the tea like Lipton
All of the best pum-pum deh yah Kingston
So my buy a Birkin fi Jada Kingdom
Some people vexed how mi phone get ring down
Mi too rich now, so mi buy six more
Mm-hmm, what's the plan?
'Cause I'm real to my skeleton (real to my skeleton)
If you insult my intelligence then I make the sparks fly like electrician
Lock off traffic, all tragic, bare panickin'
Freeze up like mannequin
Now, you can't manage when pellets dem travellin' (brrt)

Tell a pussy we no laugh up
We no take talk
Violate, people a dead dawg
You should a keep in a your bed 'cause the Talibans them a make war
We no laugh up
We no take talk
Badness a weh we endorse
We no shoot people fi end up in a Red Cross

Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
(Da-da-da-da)
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da

Tell a boy we no laugh up
