Never Stopped by Buju Lyrics Translation

Verse 1

See, sunshine I hit, get off the sheets

I say a little prayer and I burn a spliff

Because I still dey breath, I’m on my feet (Because I am still breathing. I am on my feet.)

And I know tonnes of niggas still hoping I quit Jigga

Ma shit legit, ko si elomi (My shit is legit; there is no one else.)

Not where I want to be yet so I still dey push Jigga (Not where I want to be; I am still pushing it.)

And I don’t ever fail to bring the heat

And no nobody stopping this, so you can watch and see

Chorus

I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why would I stop now

Much to achieve in my life, I hustle till the sun come down

Can’t throw dirt on my hustle, my spirit you can’t bring it down

You know I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why

You think that I’ll stop now (ooh no no)

I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why would I stop now

Put as much to achieve in my life, I hustle till the sun come down

No you can’t throw dirt on my hustle

My spirit you can’t bring it down

You know I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why

You think that I’ll stop now

Verse 2

Para para! (Abgry!)

Who say Buju no fit sing go tell the motherf-cker (Who said Buju can’t sing? Go tell the person that…)

I drop 16 bars; I am your favorite rapper

I’m a singing nigga wey still sabi flow proper(I am the singing nigga that knows how to flow properly)

Big giant five —-, smell dinner

You’re looking at a mix of Burna Boy and 2Baba

With a sprinkle of Khalid and Frank Ocean sha

You get me sha

And you know say these people no dey my radar (And you know these people are not on my radar.)

See ayanfe mi gan gan oh oh (See my lover)

Ofe shemi —(She wants to—)

And she tell me when I don’t call

Tells me it’s an insult

Are you feeling tonight

You see the people jamming tonight

And when the music playing all night

Girl you know I’ll be doing you right

Later on in the night, you know

Chorus

I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why would I stop now

Much to achieve in my life, I hustle till the sun come down

Can’t throw dirt on my hustle, my spirit you can’t bring it down

You know I’ve never stopped in my life

So tell me why you think that I’ll stop now (ooh-no-no)

Repeat chorus

I’ve never stopped in my life, so tell me why would I stop now

Put as much to achieve in my life, I hustle till the sun come down

Well you can’t throw dirt on my hustle

My spirit you can’t bring it down

You know I’ve never stopped in my life

So tell me why you think that I’ll stop now

Outro

Who say Buju no fit sing go tell the motherf-cker
