Lyrics

Calypso wept, my fans calling my name
Beggin' and pleadin' saying boy what a Shame
I was done, I said my last goodbye
Dem say "S.O.S calypso might die"
Echoes call from, de heart of de drum
Urging me to start a rebellion
Elders go fume cuz I know that they will say
"Dis ah nuh Calypso" but me nuh really kay
Cuz I doing it my own way
ah not stuck in yesterday
Modernize this outdated style, before calypso pass away
They say ah stray from de roots, but roots must spread to grow
Ah said I doing it my own way, watch how VICIOUS take control
They tell me Calypso should be orthodox
But I refuse to be locked in that box
While you elders cling to the past
Young people nah dance inna History Class
Veterans stress, say ah too wild
"Where de kaiso spirit?" check de youth profile
De system broke, but it still taxing we
And if ah change de tempo they sanction me
But I doing it my own way ah not stuck in yesterday
Modernize this outdated style, before Calypso pass away
They say ah stray from de roots, but roots must spread to grow
I said I doing it my own way, watch how VICIOUS take control
They leading we like blindfolded sheep
Preaching culture, but digging it 6 feet deep
A deafening silence when you take stage
But a riot now ah change de page.
They promise change, but all we get is cents
While they sit high, straddling de fence
Calypso need life, Calypso need soul
Ah go break de wickets, so leh me bowl
I doing it my own way, ah not stuck in yesterday,
Modernize this outdates style, before Calypso pass away
They say ah stray from de roots, but roots must spread to grow
Ah said I doing it my own way, watch how VICIOUS Take control
Mi kick dung doors, and me nah ask nice
Screw dey rules, I will pay di price
Crucify me cuz I will evolve
This aching pain is one that I must solve
If youths doh love it, it fade away
But still dem fight me night and day
found my own way, ah not stuck in yesterday
Modernize this outdated style before Calypso pass away
They say ah stray from de roots, but roots must spread to grow
Ah said I doing it my own way, watch how VICIOUS take control
So ah singing this song with fire and flair
Reviving Calypso, yet they don't care
But mark my words, de truth must show
De future is here-Calypso must grow
