Текст песни
But there is something I like about the island, about the island
People: they are proud of what they are. Island people are proud
They do not hide what they are, they do not explain away what they
Are. And when they go to other places, they are still proud of
What they are. Island people will come to America, and hear a song
Come on, and they're like, "Jump up at a business office! Dance
Is everything! We must dance!" I said, "Look, they're having fun."
Only in the islands will they shut down a whole island for carnival
Now, if you've never been to a carnival on an island, you need to
Go check that out. That's amazing. They party, not—we think we
Party, like, four o'clock in the morning, we like, "Woo! How's
After four o'clock? I'm about to drop! Woo! Ha ha, I ain't partied
Like this in years!" You ever been to a carnival in the islands?
A week! They party for a week! I ain't talking about take a break
They close the shops on Monday, and the next Monday, they still be
In the street, "Aye, aye, aye! Oy, oy, oy!" Seven days, nonstop
Family members bringing food, "Here, eat a sandwich," "Aye!" I only
Went, I lasted five blocks. They party and don't drop. We party
Until we drop. But I love that, man. I love that island spirit
I love that island flavor, man, because they're proud of what they
Are, man. Y'all be proud of what you are. Be proud of what you are
