Toronto Lyrics (English Translation) – Jala Brat, Buba Corelli

Toronto (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Introduction]
He’s saying he truly loves her and feels confident.

[Stanza 1: Buba Corelli]
He’s dealing with a woman who’s obsessed, always calling, texting, and sending videos. She’s so intense, it’s hard for him to breathe. She asks him personal questions, and he gives straight answers. Then, the song shifts into his flashy lifestyle—he’s all about money, brands, travel, and casual hook-ups, showing off his success with luxury and wild nights, like repeated s*x in a jacuzzi. He throws in raw, violent s*xual imagery to shock and underline dominance. He thought success would make her happy, but maybe it didn’t. He’s now surrounded by women who once ignored him, now showing him love. In clubs, the women with him are clearly attractive, making a scene. He reminds us of his tough upbringing, where life was dangerous, and people acted fast and rough. Despite all that, he made it out, and now he’s always on the move in the city, living boldly. Even bullets can’t touch him—he feels untouchable and protected by his success and street-smart mindset. There’s a mix of pride, toughness, and a little bitterness in how things changed after fame.

[Chorus: Jala Brat]
He compares the girl to a cold Toronto morning—beautiful, but distant and hard to reach emotionally. Even with success, he still wants more—especially money and power. But at the same time, she’s sweet and tempting like candy, making it hard to pull away. He wants to lift her high, even to the stars, using the name Dikembe Mutombo, a famous tall basketball player, to show how big and powerful his impact or love could be. This chorus repeats, showing the conflict between chasing money and chasing love.

[Verse 2: Jala Brat]
He’s calling out someone for being fake or just showing off for attention, then cuts her off—like an unfollow. She shows her body off and smokes, maybe trying to act cool. He compares himself to Han Solo, a bold character, now getting fame and headlines. He’s living large with expensive cars and flashy style, but reminds us that material stuff doesn’t mean much when you’ve come from the streets. The past still haunts him, like being trapped in a cage, and success feels intense—like gunfire. People don’t really know what it takes to survive, or how guilt hits in quiet moments, sometimes through a simple kiss. He feels like he’s at the top, winning, with his girl by his side. The rest of the verse paints a picture of gritty street life—rising above it, staying tough, and making his name solid, like concrete. His identity is rooted in both the struggle and the shine.

[Chorus: Jala Brat]
The chorus repeats, bringing back that same feeling—she’s distant and cold on the outside, but he still wants more, both emotionally and financially. He’s drawn in by her sweetness, even if she’s hard to handle. The mention of Dikembe Mutombo again shows he wants to leave a strong mark on her life. This mix of hustle, desire, and intensity keeps pulling him forward.
