[Intro: Popcaan]
Murder, murder

Bomboclaat do dem, Dane Ray?
Aye, Dave East, weh dem ah do, man?
Yuh fuck

Killy, man ah killy

Bomboclaat do dem? Bomboclaat do dem, Dane Ray?
Wicked
Aye, Dave East, weh dem ah do, man?
Yuh fuck
Trouble!
Woii yoii killy
Killy, man ah killy
Weh dem ah do?

[Verse 1: Dave East & Popcaan]
Run it up
I cannot slow down, I ain't done enough
Wray and Nephew shots fucked my stomach up
I done done a lot, natty dread with me yellin' bomboclaat (Bomboclaat)
I just bought another Glock
Give your ass a stomach shot (Weh!)
Shit bag 'em
I'm gon' get this money, they just get madder
My bitch badder, whip faster
Ran a lap, skipped past 'em
Wedgie niggas, bitch slap 'em
Duct tape 'em, kidnap 'em
Cop a Rolly on 'em
Bust it down and wave your wrist at 'em
Before I turned twenty-one, I been savage
The dope fiends I'm cool with, they been addicts
This glow I got, I been had it
Niggas think they rastas, they first time watching Shottas
Spot you like binoculars, pull up fresher than Binaca
I'm the fronto smoker, black version of Alejandro Sosa
Shoot up your party before it started, now it's over
Wild youngins, now we older
They smell that odor 'fore they pull us over
They ain't stopping shit, we tryna push the culture
Niggas lose they life to these songs before the hook is over
(Yuh fuck)
You couldn't tell me right from no wrong, was never looking sober
I'm actually focused
Half these niggas wearing Fashion Nova (Weh!)
This is pimpin', go get that paper like your ass supposed to
[Chorus: Popcaan]
All when dem see me drippin' every day
Anywhere you see mi, di Beretta deh, don't play
Bring di chopper anywhere
Dave East make di 'K sing e melody
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh (Weh!)

[Verse 2: Dave East]
My uncle told me get low the minute that you see it's hot
Plus he told me keep a Glock, he was knockin' Peter Tosh
Super Cat, virus dropped, tour dates, moved 'em back
Dirty nigga tellin' on the homies, you a sewer rat
You on the run, it's time to go hide, find me inside
Big spliff lit, knocking Vybz Kartel and probably Buju
Making movies before you heard of Netflix or Hulu
Had a Haitian introduce me to voodoo before Fubu
I ain't giving nothing up, you gotta rob me
Studying Dudus, you know, Christopher Coke, I'm talkin' Shower Posse
Youngin mindset, I catch a body, they gon' idolize me
I watched homies die, and that shit traumatized me
We watch niggas shining, tried to plot the robbery
You look around, it's only family
We landing at Norman Manley
Investing like Morgan Stanley
[Chorus: Popcaan]
All when dem see me drippin' every day
Anywhere you see mi, di Beretta deh, don't play
Bring di chopper anywhere
Dave East make di 'K sing e melody
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh (Weh!)

[Bridge: Popcaan]
Unruly di boss, fully Jamaican
Dave East run the streets dem ah East Harlem
Badman will burn ya skin like weed and blem
Uptown thugs, them a sing the street anthem
Killy, doh
Killy, doh
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh (Weh!)

[Chorus: Popcaan]
All when dem see me drippin' every day
Anywhere you see mi, di Beretta deh, don't play
Bring di chopper anywhere
Dave East make di 'K sing e melody
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh
Tell 'em man ah killy, doh
Killy, doh
Killy, doh (Weh!)
[Outro: Popcaan]
Bomboclaat

What did Dave East say about "Unruly"?
Genius Answer

My father is from Barbados, from St. Michael’s. My dad’s dad was never a legal citizen of the United States. He snuck into the country through the Panama Canal and went right to Harlem, right to Morningside Avenue. My father’s father, my last name Brewster, that’s a powerful name in Barbados, but I never really speak on that. People that know know, but I never made that kind of music. And then me and Popcaan connected, and I really was a fan of him. And I said, ‘That’s my heritage. That’s where I come from, so I need to start integrating my hip-hop with that more.’
