Country boy!
The singer of the song is from the countryside.

Came to town
He has arrived in an urban area.

Reiteration of his background.

Came to town
Reiteration of his presence in an urban area.

Him left country and never went back
The artist has permanently left his rural hometown.

Him come a town come lick bare shot
He arrived in the city with the intention of engaging in violence.

Carry the 16 over him back
He carries a gun (a 16) on his person.

Forty five, him never left the Glock
In addition to the 16, he also has a .45 caliber handgun.

Nuh mussi him supercat did ah chat
Someone may have recommended that he bring guns to the city.

He is willing to engage in violence with law enforcement officials.

Nuh left nuh trace, conceal all tracks
He is careful not to leave evidence linking him to any violent activity.

(Listen to the story)
The preceding lines set the stage for what is to come.

It musta been an older that ah tell him say fi wear that
Someone may have advised him to dress in a certain way to avoid drawing attention.

Cah any minute now you haffi stiff up like a gearbox
He must always be alert, as violence may break out at any moment.

Dem give him ah Glock, tell him say fi lock it
Someone has given him a Glock handgun and told him to hold onto it.

Don't fraid fi knock it, country ah hear snare that
He is not afraid to use the Glock in a violent confrontation.

Without no warning, early in the morning
A violent incident occurs suddenly.

Country and the eagle pitch down like a garling
The singer and another individual were shot and injured.

When him pass ah black flag and tarpaulin
A dark flag and tarp were used to mark the location of the violent scene.

Anywhere you see him tell him me call him
Another individual is looking for the artist.

Him in a one, and diamond socks
The artist likes to show off his status with diamond socks.

Country boy say him nah tek no chat
He is not interested in hearing what others have to say.

And him a real rude boy from Kingston
He is confident and confrontational.

Run the place, no turning back
He is determined to be in charge and cannot change his ways.

Fire him ah bun it aguh burn him back
Whoever crosses him will suffer consequences.

Momma deh ah country ah work like mule
The singer’s mother works very hard in the rural area.

Boy, weh you do with you ambition
He has squandered his opportunities and potential.

Run come a town, want turn gun man
He has chosen to pursue a dangerous and destructive lifestyle.

Gwaan like you want run program
He is acting recklessly and without any sense of direction.

Have you ever seen a gun man with house and land
He is questioning the future consequences of his current actions.

Oh country
He is nostalgic and longing for his rural home.

Police are coming to address the violence in the city.

If you see your cousin down the lane
He is addressing someone specifically.

Tell him Chronixx have something to say
He wants his message to be passed on to others.

Real rude bwoy, real rude bwoy
Reiteration of his confrontational and confident attitude.

Go in peace and sin no more
He hopes that the listeners will reflect on his message and make good decisions.

Even though no single one punish for sure
There is still a risk of punishment, even if it is not certain.

Country boy mmm, go in peace and sin no more
He reiterates his hope that the listeners will make positive choices.
