Lyrics The Set Up - K Rino

The Set Up

I woke up at 12.30 with a rise in my drawers
I got dressed, shot out the door keeping my eyes on the Laws
And I ain’t doing nothing wrong but man y’all know how they do
I seen my partner Scarface chilling so I busted a U
He said some boys was looking for me like they wanted confessions
So he ran 'em up out the hood for asking too many questions
I said, «Good looking out Face» and then I left to chase dollars
I saw my homegirl at the bus stop and pulled over to say holler
I scooped her up, started rolling, touching up on my mack
I had a clear view in the rear-view of an old school lack
I hadn’t noticed but my homegirl did believe it or not
She said that car been following us seen we turned left on Scott
I said, «OK», made a quick right with no time to debate
They must have caught on that I’d saw 'em so they kept going straight
Somebody tryna knock me out the frame so now it’s a war
These killers cocking up to aim and I don’t know who they are
Every time I come around, them haters and them laws try to clown
The perpetrators holler like they down but bodies getting found
Every time I hit the scene these haters plotting on my dreams
They got me out here acting like a fiend, can’t even trust the players on my
team
Can’t tell me nothing about the Park, I know it inside out
I rode the back streets all the way to old girl’s house
Once we pulled up in the driveway she invited me in
Said if you leave right now some heat might get ignited again
I said, «For sure, I could hang aroud for 5 or 10
But once I think the coast is clear I’ve got to get in the wind»
I got to figure out who’s after me and why these fools is tripping
And how to shut 'em down without me getting caught slipping
She turned on some slow music, started getting undressed
I won’t be hitting her unless the rubber’s fitting and yes
She said, «You know how sex feel when you pop an ex pill?»
«It sounds real but I’ma chill, I never have and never will»
I said, «I could use some water», so she brought me a glass
After the last sip I was blasted with the room spinning fast
Unconscious and drugged out is not the way that I wanna be
I to an hour later with 5 killers in front of me
Every time I come around, them haters and them laws try to clown
The perpetrators holler like they down but bodies getting found
Every time I hit the scene these haters plotting on my dreams
They got me out here acting like a fiend, can’t even trust the players on my
team
My head was messed up, sight blurry, no way I could run
My eyes automatically focused once I witnessed that gun
Still not knowing who these fools was, my anger relentless
Homegirl come out the room and said, «Sorry K-Rino it’s just business»
I wasn’t tripping though, I blame myself, that’s part of the game
'Cause if the loot was right I probably would have did her the same
They gave her 10 grand for the set up, she counted her bread
Before she could make it to the front door, they blew her brains out her head
He started walking over towards me, laughing pointing his gun
He said, «Today's your lucky day, I feel like having some fun»
He said, «If you make it the front door without getting shot
Man, I’ll call off this whole murder plot and let you walk out»
Man, I ain’t trusting what he telling me but I still got to try
At least I’ve got a chance to run 'cause either way I’ma die
But the second that I stood up he reached for his waist
As I saw that chrome shine, here come my boy, Scarface
With a whole army of murderers, they mobbed through the door
Within seconds all of those fools were face down on the floor
He said he knew that they was tryna set me up on the low
«I had your back all the while», «I appreciate it for sure»
Every time I come around, them haters and them laws try to clown
The perpetrators holler like they down but bodies getting found
Every time I hit the scene these haters plotting on my dreams
They got me out here acting like a fiend, can’t even trust the players on my
team
