5 ContributorsSet It Off Lyrics [Intro: Blaq Poet] Hot Day set it off! [DJ Hot Day cuts] [Verse 1: Blaq Poet] Well, I'm the Poet about set shit off And on the microphone, you know I get off Rappers be warned that I'm not a joke And if you fuck around, you might get somethin' broke I'm always prepared for warfare And you can tell by the gear that I choose to wear Timberlands, army pants, black hoodie Strapped with a rap like that of a 9 milli I set it off when I want some action There's always a rapper waitin' for a waxin' Every MC — beware! Poet's here, and I just don't care Back to attack and I'm on a mission I mop up the stage with competition So you're the competitor? I'm the predator You wanna get beat? Tell your manager set it up So we can go at it, you'll be splattered And when I'm finished, you'll be another Poet addict Strung out, all the rhymes I rung out For even sayin' you can win, I should rip your tongue out Nobody comes close, no matter how much they boast They went gold, but I still burn 'em like toast I eat MC's and wash 'em down with a forty Try to riff and I fuck you up, shorty! Now you know it, the Poet's mo' betta I'mma chill, and leave it up to Cormega Set it off! [DJ Hot Day cuts] [Verse 2: Cormega] 'Mega is scientist, metaphor analyst Predator, I set it off like a terrorist I accelerate like a four-wheeler And Hot Day supplies the bass like a drug dealer I'm an architect and I spark the set Like the Jamaican Posse flippin' in Marked for Death You're not ready for prime time Whenever I rhyme, I'm superior Deteriorate your brain area Bustin' your interior and exterior Rippin' the area like a pit terrier I'm insane, 'Mega inflicts pain I set it off like a soldier in Fort Maine Mutilate, assassinate and flip My technology is like a microchip 'Mega mic prototype I kill static like Illmatic Ice My device has a long clip and infrared light My brain's evil like the antichrist When I'm hyped, I leave the fuckin' mics smokin' like base pipes Shooters get bum rushed Our sound waves kick down the door like TNT in a drug bust Cormega can never be imitated Motivators fear the poetry I generated When women get intimitated, I hit it I get mega pussy, like an abortion clinic It's mandatory, I'm self-explanatory Don't front on me, shorty, your man's workin' for me When in effect, I pull a TEC and get wreck Then step 'cause I'm Goodfella exec' Generator when strapped, rap activator Terminator, similar to Schwarzenegger I deceive and disarm MC's Livin' in suspended animation, your brain cells freeze My mind's designed like a 9 And I'mma let it off, protégés step off when I set it off [DJ Hot Day cuts 'til the end]
