Quotable Lyrics
Fast forward, now I turn Starboy man ah don't stand on corner
Two left feet when your diamonds dancin', why your shine look so awkward?
It's One on the chorus with a bit of Skepta, that's what the gyal dem ordered
And you better lock up your wife and daughters 'cause all my guys is ballers
