It frames conflict as personal and immediate, promising that suffering will be returned in kind, and tracks the grim logic of pursuit wherever an enemy might hide.

Lyrics

RETRIBUTION

Dem kill me friend and wah fi live
But me nuh zeet suh
Revenge
(Better run away)
From dem mek we feel pain
Me ah go mek dem feel pain too
Bullet ah go inna dem brain
Dem better run away, yeah (weh)
Anywhere dem hide, man ah go fi dem
Anywhere dem hide out
Big MAC-11 ah go sing di melody dem
Wait 'til me find out
Pussy ah go dead
Swear pon me life dawg
Put dem pon di ice morgue
Me nuh have nuh time fi wait inna crime, sah
Blood haffi run out like Pine-Sol
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good
Dem better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good
Better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good
Better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good (weh)
Better run away
Mhm
Nuh miracle can save dem
Dem haffi dead like ah flowers, di archangel
From yuh diss e family, yeah me cyan feel well
Jah reveal everything to me like Gabriel, ohh
From yuh diss me friend yuh haffi dead back
Get shot inna yuh head back
'Matic flow like Red Rat
Nuh feel seh you safe true yuh endz lock
When time man pull up, yuh ah 'pread out like dead rat ('pread out)
When time man pull up, yuh ah 'pread out like dead rat ('pread out)
Dane Ray
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good
Dem better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good (no)
Better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good (ooh)
Dem better run away
If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good
Dem better run away (weh)
Anywhere dem hide, man ah go fi dem
Anywhere dem hide out
Big MAC-11 ah go sing di melody dem
Wait 'til me find out
Pussy ah go dead
Swear pon me life dawg
Put dem pon di ice morgue
Me nuh have nuh time fi wait inna crime, sah
Blood haffi run out like Pine-Sol
(If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good)
(Dem better run away)
(If dem nuh dead, me nuh feel good)
