In the song, Buju chants: “Send back Adams on the front line, and den yuh woulda see how much gun find.”
Buju Banton also points to political tribalism, undisciplined youth, brain drain, and limited job opportunities as pressing crime factors. He also points to entertainers who have involvement in crime by supplying guns. He urges Jamaicans to take a stand with him as “silence means consent”.
