Burnaboy ft J Balvin “Rollercoaster” Song/Lyrics Breakdown
In verse 1, Burnaboy sings about different things. He first off admonishes time wasters. He says he doesn’t live a reckless life. Even though Burnaboy is not perfect, he says he strives to stay pure. Regardless of where he is today, he is thankful to God for life and all he has given to him.
He also sings about how he had to put up with so many things in life.
In verse 2, J Balvin buttresses the “Rollercoaster life.” He agrees that just like a rollercoaster life goes upward and downward, but he is protected from experiencing the latter.
J Balvin has also experienced difficult times even though he is now enjoying life. There are memories of what he suffered which can’t be washed away by his fame, but his son’s smile. He is living his life not based on people’s opinions because their opinions would only lead to his downfall.

Howdy partners! For your safety, remain seated with your hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the train.
Mantenga sus manos, brazos, pies y piernas dentro del tren. Muchas gracias. (Keep your hands, arms, feet and legs inside the train. Thank you very much)
[Verse 1- Burnaboy]
I don’t want you to dey waste my time (I don’t want you to waste my time.)
I don’t wanna wait ’til it’s all over
This life is a gift from the Most-High Jah
That is why I’m thankful for all I have
‘Cause the fast life really ain’t all that
So now I try to be pure, ah
No be like say I no dey shey normal (It’s not like I don’t do the normal…)
I just get that in Jah
Wetin I see for this life plenty (In this life, I have seen so much.)
I keep am for my belly (Rollercoaster) [I kept it in my tummy/mind/to be determined or not letting out what he faced.]
People be like, any (Rollercoaster) [People are like…]
My life now, rollercoaster [My life now is a rollercoaster]
Leggo
Gbe wan rin, gbe wan ra (Take them on a journey/for a walk, make them crawl)
My head, oh (Sankuki ke gbe)
My belle, oh (Shupepe) (My stomach.)
My head, oh (Balencia)
My belle, oh (Ke ke)
My head, oh
[Verse 2 -J Balvin]
Como todo sube, tambien baja [Things go up and down]
Pero la vida me protege de las malas [But, life protects me from bad things.]
A veces creo que yo soy la hierba mala [Sometimes, I think I am a bad weed.]
Porque no muero aunque me tiren muchas balas [I can’t die even if many bullets are fired at me.]
Y que me duela para recordar que estoy vivo [Does it hurt to see that I’m alive.]
Que me la gozo pero también la he sufrido [I enjoy life, but, I have also suffered.]
Que ni la fama ni las ganas calman el frío [Neither fame or desire can pacify the chills.]
Y la sonrisa de mi hijo me quita el escalofrío. [My son’s smile takes my chills away.]
De mis emociones, Muchas palabras pero pocas las acciones [My emotions; full of many words but few actions.]
Ya no vivo pendiente de las opiniones [I no longer live life dependent on opinions.]
Ya me resbalan, Solo quiero hacer canciones. [They make me tumble. I just want to make songs.]
De mis emociones, Muchas palabras pero pocas las acciones [My emotions; full of many words but few actions.]
Ya no vivo pendiente de las opiniones [I no longer live life dependent on opinions.]
Ya me resbalan, Solo quiero hacer canciones. [They make me tumble. I just want to make songs.]
De Medellín para el mundo [From Medellin to the world.]
Dímelo si sientes que te ofendí [If you feel that I have offended you, tell me.]
No siempre puedo estar feliz [I can’t always be happy.]
La gente está encima de mí [People are on top of me.]
Si arriba estás [If you are at the top, you are rollercoaster]
[Outro]
My belle, oh (My stomach)

This life is a gift from the Most-High, Jah
That’s why I am thankful for all I have
