[Intro]
Dem seh dem a run di place, bredda
A mute an' nah listen to nuh body dawg, nuh talk, nah tek
Yuh hear dat?
When dem a step, ayy

[Chorus]
Lock e place, lock e place
Lock e place, seh dem a lock e place
Lock e place, lock e place
Watch it, likkle yute, might nuh get e race
Lock e place, lock e place
Lock e place, some seh dem a chop e place
Lock e place, lock e place
Bwoy seh dem a don, but dat is not di case

[Verse 1]
Police wull it wid gun 'round di corner
**** [?] from marijuana
Some fren dem tun informer
Talk out when a **** murder
Cyaan fight, no feed fi di liar
Mama beg, mama bawl fi da bwoy yah
Nobody cyaan save dem
Cah dem seh dem mek it chop nuff [?]
Suh dem tun (Tun)
Strap wid gun 'na hand (Hand)
Grip dem likkle gun
And then dem kill di unuh man, brr
Lost generation
****, a bummy nation
Wull out, wull out
Yute gwan wull out
A nuff a seh dem cold out
Di bats man get bold out
Life is one big world
Wid lots of sign weh yuh nuh sure 'bout
Don't sell yuh soul out
Watch how yuh hunt yuh gold out
Nuh badda tek di eye way
If yuh nuh waan fi pay di toll out
Betta bun a spliff
An' wull a meds and nuff go zone out
Ayy, ratty pull up
Yo, watch man fall out
Big an' see rush

[Chorus]
Lock e place, lock e place
Lock e place, seh dem a lock e place
Lock e place, lock e place
Watch it, likkle yute, might nuh get e race
Lock e place, lock e place
Lock e place, some seh dem a chop e place
Lock e place, lock e place
Bwoy seh dem a don, but dat is not di case

[Verse 2]
Watch it, likkle yute
A why yuh waan fi be a shooter?
Nyam dem foot like barracuda
Mek a bwoy some new recruiter
Roll up inna dem opps, yo
Some a dem pull up pon dem scooter
Dutty lifestyle
Some nah go live fi see nuh future, ayy
Seh dem a lock e place
Chop deh pon di bass
Man nuh watch nuh face
Nah have nuh time fi trace
People get e race
And when dem seh spray
A nuh miss
Don't be amazed
Brr, ayy
[Chorus]
Lock e place, lock e place
Lock e place, seh dem a lock e place
Lock e place, lock e place
Watch it, likkle yute, might nuh get e race
Lock e place, lock e place
