Hey...
Cho!
Dem say me Unruly...
Hey, Grizzle Bear
Dem a say box 'pon jaw, but
Honestly, me no see the bwoy fi dweet
Diss badman, something except plane a fly
Everybody been asking who am I
Me a the Peppa Skull, me no roll with catapult
Me born bad like two Don, I
Something spin like fan, six jump out quick, bye-bye
And me know say nobody nah testify
Dem a say dem bad, dem a gun bag
And a dem 'par with the most FBI
Some bwoy just good fi lip, dem heart weak
When works fi mash, dem cyaan dweet
Gwaan pee-pee bed, and gwaan sleep
You a baby to the thing, youth, gwaan creep
Lowe badness, cah you no born fi it
Cyaan diss Hot Skull and you have cold feet
Me will send you 2 + 4 feet
Gaza man dem badder than sore feet
So, no gi' trouble if you live inna glass or board house
Dem youth yah nowadays, we no stone house
Walk with a thing, you know that chrome out
One inna your cornrow hair a comb out
Fi make step, some bwoy no know 'bout
Turn the other cheek, badman no sure 'bout
Look inna the brand thing weh fold out
Bwoy eye toad out
Diss Anju Blaxx, something except plane a fly
Everybody been asking who am I
Me a the Peppa Skull, me no roll with catapult
Me born bad like two Don, I
Something spin like fan, six jump out quick, bye-bye
And me know say nobody nah testify
Dem a say dem bad, dem a gun bag and a dem 'par with the most FBI
So, me a bwoy weh no roll without the browning
When time she scream, a no sexy shouting
Ask pump action, she no inna mouthing
She will make something run weh favor fountain
Knocking make fi knock, we no do thumping
When you see me 'pon the street, you try do something
Plantain shoot and buss, me think a pumpkin

Me born bad like two Don, I
Something spin like fan, six jump out quick, bye-bye
And me know say nobody nah testify
Dem a say dem bad, dem a gun bag
And a dem 'par with the most FBI
Something except plane a fly

Me a the Peppa Skull, me no roll with catapult
Me born bad like two Don, I
Something spin like fan, six jump out quick, bye-bye
And me know say nobody nah testify
Dem a say dem bad, dem a gun bag

Dem a say box 'pon jaw, but

Diss badman...
In Popcaan's "Seh Dem Bad," the Jamaican deejay asserts his dominance as an unruly badman. "Dem say me Unruly," he repeats in the opening line, referencing his association with the Unruly gang. He calls out those who claim to be badmen but are all talk and no action. Popcaan boasts about his own badness and his ability to spin enemy victims like a fan, leaving them behind in a quick bye-bye. He warns others not to mess with him or his crew, the Gaza, who are notoriously bad and will not hesitate to use violence. Popcaan also references Anju Blaxx, a well-known Jamaican producer who was shot and killed in 2018. He disses anyone who talks bad about him and his friends and warns them that no one will testify against him since he's too powerful. Overall, the song is a classic Jamaican dancehall tune with tough lyrics and hard-hitting beats.
