[Intro: Erick Sermon]
This goes out to my peoples in Queens (representing)
Brooklyn, Uptown (yeah, yeah)
Boogie Down Bronx, Staten Island
All the way to New Jerz, Tri-State Area
Long Island
[Verse 1: Erick Sermon]
Huh
Welcome, Radio land and others
My underground brothers is mad deep like gutters
I brings it no matter what the situation
Underwater, through fire, across barded wire
What, I'm quick to Change Faces without R. Kelly
When you step on me you best be ready
I heats it up like Hell's Kitchen when I'm bitchin' with this rendition
Chill or you might catch an ass whippin'
There's something wrong, huh
I can't go on and commence
Tear the frame out an MC's ass with the quickness
No forgiveness, this is the way the E does business
One touch and I'll weaken the average came to be rap star
By far by far
My entourage is Sugar Hill like Wesley Snipes
Def Squad's the main attraction for y'all everynight
[Hook]
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
[Verse 2: Erick Sermon]
Dun da da, the E Double brings it full steam
Eyes are green (yeah), taken sucker niggas for they cream
I rock the mic, aight
With intentions to please and decapitate all gimmick MC's (Yeah)
I come action-packed like a flick
And dismantle those duck MC's who can't handle
My sound goes through any musical speakers (beeotch)
And flash a symbol like the Grim Reaper
To signify, gamma ray I display on wax is ridiculous
Way out like the crew on Star Trek (Yeah)
I keep my style Black like Panthers
With women with more Fox than Samantha's
Damn, this don't make no F in' sense
For me to be on top bigger than monuments
A star ghost supernova turns into a black hole
That got put into your soul
[Hook]
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
[Verse 3: Erick Sermon]
For those that envy me, saying I ain't about nothing
But everything you see, my names on something
Flawless, outlandish, unique complete
Off the wall technique I develop without speech (woah)
On bended knee I could damage an MC, thoroughly (yeah, yeah)
Ah, I take him for his currency
Remarkable, the black Superman in the sky
Flying through the air with green eyes
[Hook]
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
"I came through the door"
And I set it off
[Outro: Keith Murray]
Yeah, yeah yeah, watch your back black
Don't even step up, word is born
L.O.D. is in here too, you know what I'm sayin'?
Def Squad for life, PPP taking it everywhere
Midwest, mideast
Southwest, southwest
North, south, east, west
Northwest, eastsouth, northsouth
Everywhere, E.D. sets it off
You know what I'm saying?
Paintin the boards, rippin' the mic, rippin' niggas, anything you like
Word up, set it off, E.D
