Itz A Set Up

Written by：Keith Elam
We got news for ya
We got news for ya
We got got got got got we got news news for ya
While they devise our demise we grow wise
Upset the set up the element of surprise
It'z a set up
It's time to upset the set up
Though they conspire fake us to make us retire
With the burning desire we make it out of the crossfire
Gots are higher elevating and focused
While the path is narrow for those like us
Primo beats provoke us to meditate like Zen
With the will and the strength of a million men
While been introspect where nothing is met
It's been that way for a while so much has come and then went
But I'm confident a few are due to redeem
Their respective kingdoms with an abundance of cream
So if I were to scheme it would be on a realer dream
Like forming effective teams to filter the smokescreens
You toting in jeans don't even know the true envy
The man I'm picking apart and plus they both were friends to me
Past trivial pursuits like east and West coast feuds
Come against me on the mic many and most will lose
Like most dudes I love this hip hop and this rap stuff
But I don't like the shows where the ignorant act up
While some'll be ripping it they be in the crowd wilding
Flipping on kids for the chains and medallions
Or the kid they don't like from a beef from way back
And decide that's the night perfect time for payback
It's wack for the group plus the others who came
To see a fat a** show instead there's bullets aflame
We grow wise
Upset the set up the element of surprise
It'z a set up
It's time to upset the set up
Still waters run deep this is leagues in depth
Quiet as kept they slept we crept
Society puts the squeeze on mc's like iron grips of death
From here on in peace and blessings long cherish your breath
Gifted and Rhyme U now how we do stay true
Follow through lay down the law cause it's probable and overdue
All systems overdue my guns know me
I only hold a few my ni**a for only a few hold me
Never forget the ones before me my momma told me
Sacrifice for the ones behind me leading the seeds
Blind leads black on black crime to me
Inclined to refine my creed I eat thinking lead
Conceive to make the beast bleed enhance thoughts
Like tossed trees 'cross the Earth three fourths
Let my offspring feed all three corpus delectis cost me
Lost and found on enemy ground quoted although
They don't know how we get down at sound speed we breed
Mo more confined to blind greed and self destructive deeds
Heed my freedom war cry of course I'm N. Y.
Hug my peeps that died the loved ones alive
Reinforce and fly high as I lie so shall I
From New I to Cali next plateau U. N. I. versal
Unleash the black rain
Show em who in control electro magnetic
Pull on the hole ill as toters bang out
Till we sitting on swole the strongest way to grow
The only way I know underground railroad on track
No physical or mental chain can shackle that
