The Set Up(Explicit)

[00:04:05] I set it up, you knocked it down, lay the foundation, I built this house

[00:04:05] I feel cracks underneath my feet, I feel cracks underneath my feet

[00:04:05] The walls are breathing heavy, sucking up the oxygen with no plans of leaving any

[00:04:05] For as long as I’ve been hoarded, it’s taking me forever to gather up all my belongings

[00:04:05] I get attached, near attached to people who I’ve loved and lost

[00:04:05] Even though I gotta admit, there are few who’ve run me off

[00:04:05] But I’m under no illusion how relationships get ruined

[00:04:05] How I’m ancient to this movement when I’m just stuck to a cross

[00:04:05] Tossed into the underworld and give in specific info

[00:04:05] Forced to find another girl, sick of living in limbo

[00:04:05] But I have my songs to play so I got lost along the way

[00:04:05] And now I’ll never see the light of day thanks to the tinted Limo

[00:04:05] I was hopelessly romantic, emphasis on antic

[00:04:05] Now run hopeless along the open coast of the Atlantic

[00:04:05] Bought an overcoat that says “Francis, Showboat captain”

[00:04:05] Did my best to scrub it off cause it’s utterly embarrassing

[00:04:05] Every night I’d re-write my will on a sandbar napkin

[00:04:05] I’d crash after sticking it to the window of my cabin

[00:04:05] Once I awoke I’d notice it, read it then remove it

[00:04:05] Just stunned I left nothing to my loved ones but music

[00:04:05] Muses abandon me while choosing family over continued support

[00:04:05] For my intuitive thought, who would’ve thought?

[00:04:05] Worst thing I ever did to another person in this world is nothing

[00:04:05] Only a few can claim that’s what I did when I could have done otherwise

[00:04:05] Every single last one of them sang for nothing-types

[00:04:05] Made me pay the price at any cost, I’ve got buyer’s remorse

[00:04:05] How many toxins will the doctors find inside this corpse?

[00:04:05] Suicidal watch it’s diamond studded

[00:04:05] Tells me when my time’s up, trying to keep my eyes from it

[00:04:05] It’s so swag, I flash it at the fashion shows

[00:04:05] Walks with a limp, it’s so pimp, and it smacks the hoes

[00:04:05] Rappers used to brag about intelligence, made me want to be smarter

[00:04:05] Then I harbor no regrets, whether it sells or not is irrelevant

[00:04:05] I would have sold coke if making dough was the sole motive

[00:04:05] It wasn’t but f**k being a broke poet

[00:04:05] Without paying debts, begging friends for loose ends

[00:04:05] If your so-called talent only results in loan extensions

[00:04:05] There’s no defenses, or buyouts, you don’t get a per diem for good intentions

[00:04:05] Do you want to sign now?

[00:04:05] Promise that a job doesn't define you as a person

[00:04:05] If your words don’t carry weight, it’s not the worlds burden

[00:04:05] And in no certain terms am I suggesting that you shouldn’t set fire to the stage and let the curtains burn

[00:04:05] Just be aware of the exits

[00:04:05] Keep in mind that the closest one might be behind you, the entrance

[00:04:05] in the event that I can’t live better as an honest rapper

[00:04:05] Without my past self being my benefactor

[00:04:05] I set it up, you knocked it down

[00:04:05] I set it up, you knocked it down

[00:04:05] I set it up, you knocked it down

[00:04:05] I set it up, you knocked it down

[00:04:05] You laid the foundation, I built this house

[00:04:05] Gamble away my better half in hopes of doubling up

[00:04:05] is a double or nothing, I laughed, I was sh*t out of luck

[00:04:05] But what have I got to lose? At least I’m whole now

[00:04:05] Half man, half clone, the bad composite sketch of a one-hundred percent asshole

[00:04:05] But it wasn’t without help, many people did their part

[00:04:05] To make me take the time to Frankenstein was ripped apart

[00:04:05] And put it together again, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men

[00:04:05] Couldn’t admit that this was a predicament they put me in

[00:04:05] You want a piece of this? Welcome to the eggshells

[00:04:05] I’m barefoot and pregnant to my kitchen, y’ll can help yourselves

[00:04:05] To the feast but tippy-toe away if you can’t take the heat, or over-used clichés

[00:04:05] Back in the days I’d leave you heartbroken

[00:04:05] These days I simply reach into your chest and tear those scars open

[00:04:05] Evaluate appreciation, write you off for tax purposes

[00:04:05] I’d rather be homeless than settle in that worthless nest
