In Sean Paul's "Bruk Out", the opening verse sets the tone for the upbeat and danceable track. The lyrics showcase the Jamaican artist's knack for creating catchy and rhythmic party anthems. The lines "Anywhere di gal dem go a deh so me go / Pass me di Rizzla" signal that he's ready to party with the ladies and smoke some weed. He praises the women's figures by saying they're tight like speedos and compares them to torpedoes, emphasizing their curves and explosive sex appeal. He then directs them to "bruk out", telling them to shake their bodies and show off their skills. The chorus echoes this sentiment, inviting the women to dance and wiggle their bodies. The lyrics repeat a few times, giving the message that Sean Paul loves the ladies and their moves, and is ready to join in and get down.
The second verse addresses a specific woman, suggesting that he wants to sleep with her after the party. He mentions that he's never had a chance to "work it" with her before, but now that they've met in the dancehall, he's ready to get intimate. He uses metaphors comparing her body to a queen size sheet, and their bodies as two doves on a tree. He also throws shade at a hypothetical rival, saying that if another woman tries to take his girl or her man, they'll end up with a "minus" while he gets the "plus". The lyrics are playful and flirtatious, conveying a sense of fun and easygoing sexuality.
