[Intro: Showtime]

Who that? Who that?

Ah, Showtime, that's that little young nigga again, man

Damn, motherfucker come around every day, what he want, man?

Ayy, wassup OG Showtime, man?

Wassup holmes?

Hey man, I been thinkin', man, and, uh—

You been thinkin' about what?

Ayy, I'm ready to get put down on the set

You ready to get put down on this set? (I'm ready to represent the shit)

On this one right here?

You ready to die for this? (I'm ready to die for this, nigga)

What you ready to do? (I'm ready to put in work)

What you ready to do? You ready to get— yeah

Get him, get him, get him!

Yeah, hit him

What set you from now, huh? Huh? What set you from?


[Verse 1: B-Real]

Every nigga out there wanna be down with the crew

Some ain't got enough heart, let me ask you

This, would you be down like a soldier

Loyal and do everything I told you?

I can mold you into a warrior

Down for your neighborhood, workin' up to a G with the flavor

Criminal behavior on the mind

When I got your back, you know I got your back each and every time

[Chorus: B-Real & Sen Dog]

Throw your set in the air (C'mon)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Throw it up, holmes)

Wave it around like you just don't care


[Verse 2: B-Real]

It's time to exit that busta nigga

Get your hands out your pockets and your finger on the trigger

Let one fly, we don't die, we multiply

Throw your set up in the sky

High as you can 'cause you can't fuck with this

Nigga when I got the Glock, you better duck quick

'Cause I ain't havin' it

If you got your gat, you better start grabbin' it, I can handle it

Soy numero uno mero mero

You know I run with Muggs and the perro

Firin' up that heater

When I'm throwin' up a set I got my nina millimeter

Los Scandalous, Killafornia where I'm from

Dum-ditty, dum-ditty, ditty-dum-dum

I'm buckin' on your ass, now you know where I'm from

Dum-ditty, dum-ditty, ditty-dum-dum

[Chorus: B-Real & Sen Dog]

Throw your set in the air (C'mon)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Throw it up)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Throw your hood, holmes)

Wave it around like you just don't care (Go, c'mon on)

Throw your set in the air (Give it up)

Wave it around like you just don't care


[Interlude]

Nigga, throw your set in the air, nigga, you know what I'm sayin'?

If you're scared, nigga, take your motherfuckin' punk ass to church

'Cause where I'm from, nigga, on the east side

Every motherfuckin' day is a job, nigga

Gotta handle your business, 'cause if you don't

Your motherfuckin' cap will get peeled back

And that ain't no bullshit

If you wanna test a nigga, bring it on nigga, you know what I'm sayin'?

Throw your motherfuckin' set up in the air


[Verse 3: B-Real]

Let me take you to the dark side of the moon

Tell mama that you won't be comin' home anytime soon

'Cause I got you under my thumb, nigga, what set you claimin'?

Better be the same set I'm claimin'

Take a look around, countless amount of soldiers

When I'm chillin' on the east side of town

And it won't stop 'til I'm done

Dum-ditty, dum-ditty, ditty-dum-dum

[Chorus: B-Real & Sen Dog]

Throw your set in the air (C'mon)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Throw it up)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Throw your hood up)

Wave it around like you just don't care

Throw your set in the air (Give it up)

Wave it around like you just don't care


[Outro: Sen Dog]

Yeah, that's right

Straight givin' up the 'hood all day, fool

Cypress Hill, motherfucker, what you wanna do?

Uh-huh, givin' my shit up in your face fool
