SET IT Lyrics By Denzel Curry

[Intro: Denzel Curry]
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, yuh, yuh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Set it off, set it off, set it right there, huh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, yuh, yuh
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, Ultimate (I'm working on dying)

[Chorus: Denzel Curry]
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (Okay, baby)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (Brrr)

[Verse 1: Denzel Curry]
Wipe off the blood off my kicks
I wash and I rinse, I do it like this, too fresh
Tight as the tug on my clinch
I got me a grip I made from a quick finesse
Niggas always want you checkin' in
Or they checkin' on you soon as you get a check
They always told me more money, more problems
But when I was broke, they gave me shit for less (For less)
Feel like JFK (Pew)
I'm tryna keep my head on straight, but niggas dying every day (Day)
So everything ain't okay (Okay)
Red skies rainin' black snowflakes (Snowflakes)
When they slide, no face, no case (No case)
Double back to the same location (Location)
Last thing a nigga heard, they erased 'em (Rrah)
Whether it's earth, wind, or fire, you out of your element
My reign of terror is not for the weatherman
Curry the killer, Aquarius'Killa, that nigga been levelin' up
Denzel the ultimate, call me Big Ultra
ULT comin' through, swarmin' like vultures
Death to all posers and those that oppose us
Givin' out smoke and we passin' out roses

[Chorus: Denzel Curry & Maxo Kream]
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (I'ma set it right there)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (Okay, baby)
Run it right there
Nigga wanna set it off, set it right there, huh, yuh (Maxo, Maxo, Maxo, okay)

[Verse 2: Maxo Kream]
Play with Maxo, chopper shoot his baby mama
Straps like Al-Qaeda, bomb you like Osama (Boom)
Bullets through the roof, bulletproof the Hummer
Niggas switch up on you when you makin' commas
Fuck that, nan' nigga made me (Uh-uh)
Never trust a partner, gotta watch 'em cause they janky (What?)
Southwest, Murder Block, where we bang C (Southwest)
Chopper fuck a nigga up like Tay Keith (Let's get it)
Denzel, no Curry, shoot the 30 like Curry
Up the fire, he retired, tell 'em hang a nigga jersey (Uh)
Hold on, Maxo Kobe, shoot like Jordan (What?)
Shot clock on the opp, we scorin' (Okay)
If it's up (Maxo), then it's stuck (Maxo), nigga, ain't no comin' down (Maxo, Maxo)
Pistol trigger Maxo, see, my baby Drac' a hundred rounds

[Outro: Kingpin Skinny Pimp]
Aw yeah, never let no nigga trick you off these streets
Gotta watch all these damn fools tryna play cool
Then go with they move, you know what I'm sayin'?
Every whip we in, strapped up with dark tint, you dig?
I'd rather be judged by twelve than carried by six
