[Intro 1]
[F][C][F]
[C][F][C][F][C][F][C][F][G][C]
[F]

[Verse 1]
While [F]they devise our [C]demise, we [F]grow wise
Upset the set up,
the element of surprise
[G]IT'Z A SET [C]UP[F]
It's time to up[G]set the [F]set up

[Verse 2]
Though they [C]conspire,
[F]fake us to make us re[G]tire
With the [C]burning desire we [F]make
it out of the crossfire
[G]Thoughts [C]are higher,
[F]elevating and focused
while the path is narrow, for those like us
Primo beats [C]provoke us to
[F]meditate like Zen
With the will and the strength,
of a million men
[C]While [F]they introspect, where
nothing is met
[G]It's bee[C]n that way[F] for a while so
much has come [Dm]and then w[F]ent
But I'm confid[C]ent, a few,
[F]are due to redeem
[G]their respe[F]ctive kingdoms,
with an abundance of cream
So if I were [C]to scheme,
[F]it would be on a real[G]er dream
Like [F]formin effective teams to filter
[G]the [F]smokescreens
You totin [C]in [F]jeans,
don't even know the true envy
The [C]man I'm pickin apart,
[F]and plus they both were friends to me
Past trivial [C]pursuit[F] s like East
and West coast feuds
[G]Come [F]against me on the mic,
many and most will lose
Like [G]most [C]dudes, I love this [F]hip- hop,
and this [G]rap stuff
[F]But I [C]don't [F]like the shows,
where the ignor[G]ant [F]act up
While [G]some'll [C]be rippin [F]it,
they be in the crowd wildin
Flippin on kids,
for the chains and medallions
Or the kid [C]they don't [F]like,
from a beef from way [G]back
And [F]decide that's the night,
perfect time for payback
It's wack [C]for the group,
[F]plus the others who came
to see a fat ass show,
instead there's bullets aflame
[C]While

[Verse 3]
they devise our de[F]mise,
we grow wise
Upset the set up,
the element of surprise
IT'Z A [G]SET [C]UP[F]
It's time to upset the set up

[Verse 4]
Still [F]waters run deep this
is leagues in depth
Quiet as kept they slept we crept
Society puts the squeeze [C]on
MC's[F]like iron grips of death
From here on in peace and blessings
long cherish your breath
Gifted and [C]Rhyme you now [F]how we do,
stay true
[G]Follow [F]through lay down the law,
cause it's probable and overdue
All [C]system[F]s overdue,
my guns know me
I only [C]hold a [F]few my nigga for
only a few [G]hold [F]me
Never for[C]get the [F]ones before me,
[G]my momma told me
sacri[F]fice for the [G]ones behind
me leadin [F]the seeds
Blind leads, [C]black [F]on black, crime to me
In[C]clined [F]to refine my creed
I eat thinkin lead
Conceive [C]to make the [F]beast bleed,
enhance thoughts
like tossed trees 'cross
the Earth three- fourths
Let my offspring feed [C]all three,
[F]corpus delectis cost me
Lost [C]an [F]d found on enemy ground,
quoted although
they don't know how we [C]get [F]down
at sound speed we breed
Mo more confined to blind greed
and self destructive deeds
Heed my [C]freedom war cry,
[F]of course I'm N.Y.
Hug my peeps that died,
the loved ones alive
Rein[G]force [C]an d fly [F]high as I lie so shall I
from New I to Cali next plateau
[G]U.N[F].I.versal[G][C][F]
Unleash the black rain
Show em who in control, electro- magnetic
pull on [C]the [F]hole, ill as toters bang [G]out
Til we [F]sittin on swole the
strongest way to grow
The only way I know,
Underground Railroad on track
No physical or mental chain

[Outro 1]
can shackle that
