Iron Mic

He was the heavyweight king at the age of 21 From the streets of New York where they're all called mean He never had no mom, he never had no dad His aunt and Cus Da'mato was all he ever had But he found his pot of goal, consequently came Givins And when they broke up, it was him that was given We like to build them up, but we love to see them fall Finally taken down by a hooker five feet tall I said you gotta set him free (x4) When push comes to shove (x4) He'll be standing above It was a battle of brains, a battle of wit So my man got his mad skills, Allen Durschwitz But he left him out to dry, the judge was a fool Using this case as a publicity tool So it's off to the cell to meet the prision staff The first thing they do, they want his autograph And I just laugh cause he suffered the wrath Now the man added time to his liberty path I said you gotta set him free (x4) When push comes to shove (x4) He'll be standing above I heard he gets a lot of visits, still he's got no family But he gets a lot of love from the kids at Jodeci What Desiree sucks man on his new TV Same name bitch, but you look similar to me But that's another story, I'm getting off track Now when he gets out, I think you better watch your back I said now when he gets out, I think you better watch your back You may find yourself kid tagged and sacked I say they gotta set him free (x4) When push comes to shove (x4) He'll be standing above I say they gotta set him free (x3) We gotta set that motherfucker free
