Pay Attention
Dilated Peoples

Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society watch me while I do it


Yo, yo, I buck shots, lick shots, take shots, give shots

Headliners know, this year we switch spots

Check it, I spit it for the righteous and the wretched

First came the live show, next came the records


With wax collectors with rap perfectors

With scratch, with dance, with graf protectors

Worldwide travelers in your sector

DJ Babu, come down selector


I raw here, I explore here, you like that

Where that comes from there's more there

This is warfare and we score fair

We don't stop till our flag swings in your air


I rap to build or I rap to ruin

Your whole career, yo, watch what you doin'


Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Watch and observe)


I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)

Watch me while I do it, watch me while I do it

(Watch and observe)


Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it


Yo, yo, I'm a poet with the warrior spirit inside

Chokin' rappers out like hicks on and pride

We all share the same sun givin' us light

But remember, sink or swim, time winnin's a fight


Expansion team takes rows, takes oceans, takes flight

Then takes over the stage till the morning breaks night

Word of mouth crew, make sure we pay right

Then Hendrix takes over my body, I blaze mics


Spray 3-D outlines and highlights


I know lowlifes that are livin' the high life

At great heights, I exercise my rights

So much smoke, when I'm this high, I sky-write


Raaka raps to build or raps to ruin

Your whole career, yo, watch what you're doin'


Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Watch and observe)


I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)

Watch me while I do it, watch me while I do it

(Watch and observe)


Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it


I rock hills and valleys, rap shows and rallys

Record stores and schools, live shit from Cali

Take it to the people, cut out the middle men

Like Chuck said, I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin


I rap to build or I rap to ruin

Your whole career, yo, watch what you're doin'


Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)


Watch me while I do it, watch me while I do it

(Watch and observe)

Let me tell you somethin'

I'm 'bout to set it off, society, watch me while I do it

(Pay attention)


U.K. y'all, U.S.A y'all

Japan y'all, Japan y'all

France y'all, France y'all
