Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yo, yo, I buck shots, lick shots, take shots, give shots
Headliners know this year we switch spots
Check it, I spit it for the righteous and the wretched
First came the live show then came the records
With wax collectors, with rap perfecters
With scratch, with dance, with graf protectors
Worldwide travelers in your sector
DJ Babu, come down selector
[Verse 2]
I raw here, I explore here
You like that? Where that comes from, there's more there
This is warfare and we score fair
We don't stop till our flag swings in your air
I rap to build or I rap to ruin
Your whole career, yo, watch what ya doin'
[Verse 3]
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Watch and observe
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
Watch me while I do it, wa-wa-wa-watch me while I do it
Watch and observe
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
[Verse 4]
Yo, yo, I'm a poet with the warrior spirit inside
Chokin' rappers out like Hickson in "Pride"
We all share the same sun givin' us light
But remember, sink-or-swim time, winning's a fight
Expansion Team takes rows, takes oceans, takes flight
Then takes over the stage till the morning breaks night
Word of Mouth Crew, make sure we pay right
Then Hendrix takes over my body, I blaze mics
Spray 3D outlines and highlights
I know lowlifes that are livin' the high-life
At great heights I exercise my rights
So much smoke, when I'm this high I sky-write
Raaka raps to build or raps to ruin
Your whole career, yo, watch what ya doin'
[Verse 5]
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Watch and observe
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
Watch me while I do it
Watch me while I do it
Watch and observe
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
[Verse 6]
I rock hills and valleys, rap shows and rallies
Record stores and schools, live shit from Cali
Take it to the people, cut out the middlemen
Like Chuck said, "I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin'"
I rap to build or I rap to ruin
Your whole career, yo, watch what ya doin'
[Verse 7]
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Babu, uh-huh
[Verse 8]
I'm 'bout to set it, Iriscience
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
Watch me while I do it, wa-wa-wa-watch me while I do it
Watch and observe
Let, let, let, let me tell you something
I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it
Pay attention
