Gather round, it's a celebration, oyiwa!
Born from a beautiful family, shine so bright
Mama Kadie Sesay, she raised a king in the night
Papa Lamin Kuyateh, a legacy so strong
They gave you the rhythm, they gave you the song
From small beginnings to big dreams you chase
You carry your name with such amazing grace
Through music and friendship, through all of the times
Heavy D stands tall, see the mountain climb!
Happy Birthday, DJ Heavy D!

Your heart is as golden as Kente cloth weave
It’s the magic of music that we all believe
Keep spinning the tracks, keep leading the way
