Hear it from a distant hill, response still
Get an instant chill when infants die
When them drive by in an instance I
And things start fly and them a (Try!)

Seen a mother seen her son, dead a ground, Glock around

She need a shot a rum
No need no doctor come pronounce him gone
Him done seem calm, the shotta shift him ounce and gone
And if him touch the route again
The dead yute him have a group o' friends
Weh buss it like a JUTA man
And them a (Try!)
