🎶 Shatta Wale – Trust No Telephone (Full Lyrics)

From mi seh Shatta Movement  
Unnu affi know we addi men  
Paah Paah Paah Paah Paah  

21 guns salute  
Ever seen ah man fly up like balloon  
My friends inna de jungle dem baboons  

Born as emperor with mi own empress  
Anger cyaan manage trigger affi press press  
Mother bed wholla dem birds inna mi nest nest  
Tan as ah pillar fi di ghetto youth de voiceless  
Wi nuh play with no man wi nuh press breast  
Badman without money ah jus senseless  
Reason why mi stay far is because of dimwit  

Pussy dem vex when dem see me inna mi new Benz  
Have new friends wholla dem ah billionaire friends  
Dem have sex but wi tell’em wi have de best sex  
If dem have gals guan go tell’em we have ex ex  

Dem have medals but wi have de best crest  
Unnu hate de ghetto youth, tell me what's your interest  
Dem say dem murder many artistes those days  
Tell some bwoy fi come show me dem best verse  

**Chorus:**  
Uptown  
Tell’em wi nuh trust telephone  
Downtown  
Careful addi drones  
After de hardwork party party party party  

Wholla dem still ah call me African defender  
From de eye red that ah danger  
Dem say safety but mi love adventure  
Eight years now still no contender  
Run go tell’em fi surrender  
Finger ah go blend inna blender  
Inna my space Shatta Wale change the weather  
Wish wi never met but ah here so you deyah  

Careful ah text  
Careful ah call pon WhatsApp  
Know who knock careful who just pop up  
Some man ah bitch, some people need ah clapper  
Some man ah snitch, careful what you ah go utter  

Dem nuh wan see wi rise  
Put dem inna oil like Kentucky fries  
The people dem tired'ah dem lies  
Show de pussy som’ah likkle surprise  

**Chorus (repeats):**  
Uptown  
Tell’em wi nuh trust telephone  
Downtown  
Careful addi drones  
After de hardwork party party party party  

**Bridge / Repeat:**  
21 guns salute  
Ever seen ah man fly up like balloon  
My friends inna de jungle dem baboons  
Born as emperor with mi own empress

🌟 Song Meaning and Breakdown

Shatta Wale is making it crystal clear—trust is dead, and he’s not taking chances. From fake friends to sneaky communication ("trust no telephone"), the lyrics warn of betrayal hiding in plain sight. In classic Shatta style, he mixes street sense with royal confidence ("born as emperor with mi own empress").

The "telephone" is a symbol of false connections and digital deception. He's calling on the youth to wise up, protect their peace, and avoid drama.


🌟 Final Thoughts

Shatta Wale never misses when it comes to delivering real street anthems. "Trust No Telephone" is not just another hit, it’s a life lesson for anyone navigating loyalty, fame, and ambition.
