Set 'Em On Fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Every mans in here, every female desire |
Don’t get cuffed, boy, set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire |
Yo, you know what your problem is? |
You keep making too many promises |
And never get to 100 percent that you gotta give, boy |
To be the leader of the pack, on top of this |
You gotta slay whoever from whatever metropolis |
When the force of the law, the rage of hell |
Keep the close or spray on yourself |
When the score’s up on the board, the numbers’ll tell |
So I hope that y’all runnin' ain’t runnin' a mill |
I got a confidence in the squad that come with the skill |
Of growin' up deep in the cut, I’m ill with the pill |
It’s not all good in the hood, it’s real in the field |
So if your game ain’t tight then I’ma be on your heels |
And just step into the court with the torch held high |
I been in this corner game for such a long time |
Got me feelin' like a soldier who ain’t ever gonna die |
I step up front and just set 'em on fire, boy |
Yeah, c’mon |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire |
Every mans in here, every female desire |
Don’t get cuffed, boy, set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire |
I burn everything in my path, yo, can’t explain why |
Voice like melted sun raining from the sky |
Me, I’m blessed with the intellect to understand |
The reasons why God put fire in a man |
I walk over glass and revert it back to sand |
The heat under my feet melts the streets |
It won’t cease, 'cause there ain’t no peace 'til my demise |
And that’s when you finally realize |
This is how I remain, it’s dice |
Molten rock runnin' through my vein |
Please, don’t get rocked by a runaway train |
'Cause the tracks have ignited |
I’m 'bout to explode on 'em, 'cause I can’t fight it |
And that’s why I’m gon' |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire |
Every mans in here, every female desire |
Don’t get cuffed, boy, set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire |
It’s light in the air, heavy in the words |
The look on my face says «do not disturb» |
I won’t speak but I will be heard |
I won’t leave without what I deserve |
Ain’t no rest unless I possess what the world hold dear |
Goal is so near, I get goosebumps |
F what you want |
You wish to resist and I must insist |
That you come up off that or fall and call back |
Where will you be when they remove me? |
They say that the shame last long as a stain |
But nothing last longer than the pain |
Better get used to me, ooh |
I don’t know what it used to be, yeah |
I’m the one that they blame it on |
When the flame is on |
And my turn is up |
Let’s turn it up, ohh |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire |
Every mans in here, every female desire |
Don’t get cuffed, boy, set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire (yeah) |
Set 'em on fire |
Every mans in here, every female desire |
Don’t get cuffed, boy, set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire (c'mon) |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
Set 'em on fire |
