I looked up this article about it after googling the lyrics. Sounds like there was much more backlash after the music video dropped which has now been pulled from some streaming sites.
The bigger controversy was filming at a courthouse famous for lynching and using BLM protest footage in the video.
It’s about threatening mob violence if “you try it in a small town”. Various actions are included such as actual crimes or disrespecting a police officer. It also throws in a line about how gubmint wants all your guns and they’ll totally act on that any day now so buy as many guns and as much ammo as you can.
That’s it. You missed the part where 58 people died and 500 were injured in a shooting at his concert then he released this song saying “they’re gonna take our guns!” though.

No, I mean what’s the name of the song?
I’m assuming Jason Aldean - Try That in a Small Town, but I’m going off of context.
