Kardinal Offishall – Numba 1 (Tide Is High) lyrics

Light it up
Everybody, light it up
Go Rihanna, light it up
To Kardinal, light it up

The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
I'm gonna be your numba 1
Numba 1, numba 1

She's just my part time lover, pretty little thing
Nothin' I would ever think about givin' no ring
Nothin' but a pretty little overnight fling
Even though she wanna be the queen to my king

She ain't nothin' but a work for my ginseng
Someone I would use to buss mi back spring
She woulda be numba one at the badda bing
Bad man nah go badda wid di wife wife ting

She gotta know she's the girl on the side
On the left are the rest numba two on my mind
There no way she could be my girl
And she's steady tryin' to come into my world

The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
I'm gonna be your numba 1
Numba 1, numba 1

Yow, she's just my trophy piece, mi hot hot gal
Never ever woulda call her Mrs. Offishall
Never ever woulda bring her around my fam
She'd be cryin' on the phone but she knows who I am

I'm Mr. Kardinal, voice to the people
Black J's family and verses are lethal
I don't have time for the play play
She a good chick yo but I'm married to the game

Married to the fame, related to the paper
Tryin' to get my name, put upon a skyscraper
There's no way she could be my wife
But she's steady tryin' to come into my life

The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
I'm gonna be your numba 1
Numba 1, numba 1, numba 1

Those other girls ain't nothin' like me, done know Keri
Just give me the chance and boy you will see that, what
I'm not the kind of girl who just gets down like that
Oh no

On the real I ain't gonna front
You're the fox to a lotta hound dogs on the hunt
You the push to a lotta cush rolled in the blunt
You the hottest in the dance but you ain't what I want

I'm a business man tryin' to get the business
Just tryin' to walk out you physical fitness
There's no way you could get that ring
But I hear all the hottie hotties in the place sing

The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
I'm gonna be your numba 1
Numba 1, numba 1

The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
I'm gonna be your numba 1
Numba 1, numba 1

Light it up
Everybody, light it up
Go Rihanna, light it up
To Kardinal, light it up
