Protect Yu Neck |
| Bulby yuh a listen |

| Protect yuh neck |
| Protect yuh head don’t tek nuh check |
| Protect yuh neck |
| Look over yuh shoulder |
| Yuh a hear mi now |
| Duh nuh come out afta midnight iyah |
| All inna broad daylight dem a tek life |
| So imagine afta dark when di action start |
| Wat a guh gwaan |
| Duh nuh come out afta x-30 |
| Dem yah yute yah well blood tirsty |
| Nuh mek sun down ketch yuh inna town |
| Tek weh yuh self now |
| Ova war-rieka hill |
| War neva stand still |
| And inna garden |
| Mi neva see nuh cultivation nor nuh farming-a gwaan |
| Dem will done yuh inna kirk (dunkirk) |
| All ova watahouse a drought still dem will wet yuh |
| Is like yuh life nuh have nuh worth |
| I look inna callaloo bed |
| And nuh see nuh mo' vegetarian alone |
| And get dis straight sah |
| Chant for a safer jamaica |
| Who name dem place yah |
| Dem neva know seh word sound a powah |
| Yuh got to be care-ful |
| And protect yuh neck |
| Protect yuh head back |
| Careful and protect yuh neck protect yuh head |
| When yuh come out afta x-30 |
| Nuh trust nuh blue suit nor khaaki |
| Nuff a pose like police and dem a tief |
| Worst dan di klan weh wrap up inna white sheet |
| Freaks come out anytime it touch dark |
| Watch how yuh walk inside di park |
| He turn she and she turn he some sight to see |
| Swap identity and waah come mingle wid we |
| New kingston |
| Mi si dem a dust but mi nuh see nothing done |
| For my people |
| Still no one knows the reason |
| And mi guh ask a hope road |
| Still it was hopeless cause no one would hear ma cry |
| Di struggle still continue |
| And inna payneland burn di pain and mek wi hold a joy |
| Get dis straight sah |
| Work for a safer jamaica |
| Sweetest land sweetest watah |
| Dash weh di pirate cultcha |
| Yuh got to be care-ful |
| And protect yuh neck |
| Protect yuh head back |
| Careful and protect yuh neck protect yuh head |
| Yuh betta protect yuh neck |
| Protect yuh neck |
| Protect yuh head don’t tek nuh check |
| Protect yuh neck |
| And look over yuh shoulder |
| Mi well waah come out afta x-30 |
| Mi nuh waah nuh curfew country |
| Woman and man tired fi lock up inna house |
| Well waah come out and sport all bout |
| When wi come out and start party |
| Yuh nuh si nuh one hot like we |
| Nuh mek pagan mash up wi country |
| in communit twist up in love and inity |
| Shooters hill |
| Di war neva stand still |
| And inna garden |
| Mi neva si nuh cultivation nor nuh farming |
| Now dem will done yuh inna kirk |
| All ova waterhouse a drought still dem will wet yuh |
| Is like yuh life nuh have nuh worth |
| And inna callaloo bed mi nuh si nuh mo vegetarian alone |
| Mek wi get dis straight sah |
| Chant for a safer jamaica |
| Who name dem place yah |
| Dem neva seh word sound a powah |
| Hey |
