The Set Up

Lyrics

[Produced by Havoc] [Intro: Nas & (Havoc)] Uhh (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Q.B. since 1933 (No doubt) To '96 ('96, motherfucker) Check this shit ('96, Escobar 600) Check this shit! [Verse 1: Nas] My mind set, son got wet, I'm vexed really They snatched off his Rolex, smacked his bitch silly Why niggas actin' illy? Word to Will, he 'bout to feel it I feel it, we should've been dealt wit' it Them niggas sour, they put too much flour in their coke And got the nerve to wonder why they broke! While we was gleamin', niggas was schemin', seen the ill Bimmers beamin' Triple-beam and doublin' cream had 'em fiendin' To get they fingers on a dose-ah, I called Sosa "Sosa, these niggas hit the God, bring the toaster Meet me in the Bridge, I'm 'bout to go loca" Left my rat beggin' me to stay and stroke her He came through with two fly bitches (Uh) Venus and Vicious with two MAC's inside the Volvo, what up, god? I'm still sober I need some Henn' to bend me over My nigga Hav' got a soldier, it's gettin' down, it's goin' down, kid (I got this, I got this) I heard he might not live, I'm holdin' back tears Told these broads to put it in gear With two females that don't smile, diggin' their style Yo, what up, son? These niggas done started somethin' wild (What up?) You know the clique well, Ramel with the gold in his grill Tried to get a name holdin' the steel, I paid attention to the females Maintained bitches when it get real Sos' pulled me close and told me the deal He said both hoes'll peel, spray shots and reload and still handle the wheel Point 'em out, smoke a Phill' then chill I laid back — Escobar status, knowin' The Firm got it cornered We on it, shit we was born wit' [Chorus: Havoc] Spark the lye, Q.B.C. yo, it's do or die In this business of trifeness I finesse this, Boyardee, we chef shit Perfect shit, Albert Einstein minds connect wit' Dangerous sons, step back, let the TEC lift Lift you up, bless you with a shorty then we set you up! Spark the lye, Q.B.C. yo, it's do or die In this business of trifeness We finesse this, Boyardee, we chef shit Perfect shit, Albert Einstein minds connect wit' Dangerous sons, step back, let the TEC lift Lift you up, bless you with a shorty then we set you up! [Verse 2: Nas] "Hold it right there, pull over!" That nigga right there inside the Rover I knew he'd be right here, I told ya Let's get him now, look at him smile, Ice Bulova Polo pullover, big links and rockin' boulders He's stuntin' after he left my man like that Without a fair chance to fight back, but I'll be right back! He never seen us, Sos' gave the MAC to Venus and Vicious Lookin' delicious, handle your bidness And step to him, shake your ass, try to screw him Do what you gotta do to get to him A tight Parasuco with young faces Can turn niggas Buttafuoco of all ages (Yeah) They was amused by the way they walked, way they talked Only if they knew these girls'll sprayed New York If they've had to, heard him ask Venus, "Could I have you?" He jumped out a Jeep, heard her tell him, "Don't grab, boo!" They started chattin', was only 'bout a minute flat when They jumped in the back of the Jeep laughin' We followed 'em, pollyin', he thought the hoes were Somalian Probably when they hit the Holiday Inn I grabbed the phone and called the Mobb and 'em We laid low about a hour or so, these bitches movin' too slow We both holdin', what if them wild hoes started foldin'? Sosa said, "Say no more", we started rollin' Before we got in, they must've shot him Security wildin', there the girls go, hurry up, we out in The 940, me, Sosa and two shorties The punk niggas got murdered in the orgy! [Chorus: Havoc & Female] Spark the lye, Q.B.C. yo, it's do or die In this business of trifeness We finesse this, Boyardee, we chef shit Perfect shit, Albert Einstein minds connect wit' Dangerous sons, step back, let the TEC lift Lift you up, bless you with a shorty then we set you up [Outro: Female] Q.B.C., Queensbridge, motherfucker Ropin' niggas up, 'cause our clique is thick Another day, another dollar More money, more murder Fuck this shit! Q.B. up in the house
