Grow like an afro

Weight in kilo
Light as a pillow
Dance on my tip-toe

Yeah we come come come
Yeah we come with some some
Get a glass of rum
With a gun and some pun pun
Oh fun fun fun
Let's get 'em undone
Take a hit on the bong
It's been so long since we hung
Go low, go slow
Roll like a pollo
Up and down a pole
Like you're glowing up a yo-yo
Go low, go slow
Roll like a pollo
Up and down a pole
Like you're glowing up a yo-yo

YOLO? I don't even know anymore, what that even mean though
If you only live once why we keep doing the same shit
Back home where I come from we keep being born again and again and again
That's why they invented karma
