[Intro]
BOAW, BOAW. BOAW, BOAW.
[Verse 1]
Mi step inna di night, skin tight like a wire, mi call it trapfire
Riddim a drop, heart beat inna chase, when di bass pull up higher
Mi ah talk direct like a general, gun cock FX, mi voice tek higher
Vibe: Badman energy, crowd seh “grrr,” mi reputation solid like my attire
GRRT, GRRT
[Pre-Chorus]
Mi heart cyan slow, it quick like a flash, mi mouth a rile
Slide di 808, big like a cage, but di truth nuh mild
Piano stab cut straight through di fog, nuh pretend, mi style vile
BOAW, BOAW, di street dem know mi name in a mile
[Chorus]
Bad so me bad, mi chain dem bright inna di dark
Heavy auto-tune rise when mi deh yah, mi mark
Pon di top mi stand tall, yuh feel di bite when mi spark
Bad so me bad, tek di crown and keep it stark
[Verse 2]
Half-sing, half-deejay, mi level so aggressive, mi vex wid di lies
GRRT inna di back, di pavement crack when di echo multiply
Police siren inna di far, still mi move slick, no surprise
Mouth full of fire, mi tell dem seh mi nuh compromise
POW, POW, mixture of fear and fire inna di eyes
[Bridge]
Shut it down like a lock, chant ft. di crowd inna silhouette
A di pavement pulse, badman language, di city respect
Shatta Wale energy, Kartel philosophy, every line a bet
GRRT, BOAW, di night conform to di threat
[Chorus]
Bad so me bad, mi chain dem bright inna di dark
Heavy auto-tune rise when mi deh yah, mi mark
Pon di top mi stand tall, yuh feel di bite when mi spark
Bad so me bad, tek di crown and keep it stark
[Outro]
BOAW, BOAW, end a di tale with a final roar
POW, GRRT, di echo a gwaan even if mi don’t roar no more
Bad man energy linger, inna di street where it all began before
