“I Don’t Care” by Burna Boy from the album, Best of Burn Series, Vol. 1, is a raw and unapologetic early wave from the Nigerian star, where ambition meets defiance. The track sees Burna deliver his message over energetic dancehall-infused Afropop, warning doubters and embracing his climb with unfiltered resolve.
The song captures that moment when you decide to stop worrying about opinion and start owning your path. Lines filled with determination and self-worth rise above the beat, showing Burna stepping into his power long before he was a global face.
While simple in structure, “I Don’t Care” resonates through its honesty. It’s not about flashy metaphors but about voice, fire, and that instinct to move regardless of the noise.

[Intro]
Oh lord
[Chorus]
And they saying they wishing
That they could just get me sleeping
Put a gun to my head, turn me to victim
I ain't scared even a little
'Cause I don't give a fuck, we're in the middle
I really don't care anymore
I'm feeling like I'm nailed to the floor
I don't know again
Do what you want
Just know I don't care
[Verse]
Somebody hold me 'fore I burst it in his head
Thought he was a G but he talking the victim
So I'm gonna be singing when I'm bursting off the letter
Boom by-by in a party boy, ay
I don't give a fuck, my bandana's fully red
I don't think you heard, I'm repeating what I said
I don't give a fuck, my bandana's fully rеd
If you went and quit it, throw a bag over your head
I bеt you never thought I'd see the sun again
But I'm back now
Sorry but it's over
Get your baggage packed now
Told them get the fuck up out my throne before I sat down
Finally I'm free again, I'm never going back down
Finding snakes and I'm chopping off they head
Smiling in my face
But they wishing I was dead
I ain't gonna rest 'til I empty 'em for red
Make your fuckin' marrows red
Ladies, what the fuck is there
[Chorus]
'Cause they saying they wishing
That they could just get me sleeping
Put a gun to my head, turn me to victim
I ain't scared even a little
'Cause I don't give a fuck, we're in the middle
I really don't care anymore
I'm feeling like I'm nailed to the floor
I ain't goin' nowhere
Do what you want
Just know I don't care
[Outro]
I said I'm tired of it all
'Cause I try, I try and then I fall
No matter how many times I get up
I still seem to fall again
What am I doing wrong?
How much longer can I be strong? Oh lord
