The Setup Lyrics by Marquis Patience

2020

[Verse1]
I saw her walk in
She planned to
Get her revenge today
Said she had no man
But clearly
She was only just baiting me
Maybe she doesn’t
Really I don’t know
Either way she’s acting single
She whispered in my ear
Please take me
She made it hard for me to say no
[Pre-Chorus]
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’vе saw it coming
She set me up
[Chorus]
My mind said
Don’t you darе trust her
Don’t you dare
She’s gonna set you up
(Most importantly)
Please do not love her
Please don’t love her
You cannot have love without trust
(My mind said)
Don’t you dare trust her
Don’t you dare
She’s gonna set you up
(Most importantly)
Please do not love her
Please don’t love her
You cannot have love without trust
I should’ve saw it coming
[Verse2]
Bank account’s frozen
And I can’t seem to find my I.D
Every cop in here keep lurking
But why the hell they staring
I swear there’s something that’s going on
Feels like everyone knows it but me
From the moment she asked me to take her home
I should’ve knew it then cause it felt wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
I should’ve saw it coming
She set me up
[Chorus]
My mind said
Don’t you dare trust her
Don’t you dare
She’s gonna set you up
(Most importantly)
Please do not love her
Please don’t love her
You cannot have love without trust
(My mind said)
Don’t you dare trust her
Don’t you dare (Calling all units)
She’s gonna set you up (Calling all units)
(Most importantly)
(Black male) Please do not love her
(Mid-twenties) Please don’t love her
(May be armed and dangerous) You cannot have love without trust
(Proceed with caution) I should’ve saw it coming
[Skit]
Yo Pull over
There he go right there
Right there
Grab him
I didn’t do this
(Dispatch we need backup)
Let me see your hands
Let me see your hands
(What is your current location)
It was her
It wasn’t me
I swear
I swear
Son
There’ll be plenty of time to talk about this down at the station
You’re under arrest alright
Now let me see those hands
I swear this isn’t my murder
You have the right to remain silent
Now sit down over there
I got some questions for you
[Verse3]
I’m tryna’ run fast
Cause every cop is out to get me
I can’t understand it
Why the hell she pick me
Look
I swear this her boyfriend’s murder
Cop said ain’t that you
Man I thought you loved her
We got pictures of you both
You can’t tell me they wrong
You say he stole you’re identity
Good luck proving that bruh
You a John Doe
Cause we couldn’t find any social
The judge will have a field day
Take him Marshall
[Pre-Chorus]
I should’ve saw it coming (We got the perp)
She set me up (Currently headed back to the station)
I should’ve saw it coming (Roger That)
(We’ll have the paperwork ready for you when you get here)
She set me up (Copy)
I should’ve saw it coming (Welcome to your new home)
She set me up (You’re gonna be here a long time)
I should’ve saw it coming (So you might have well get comfortable)
She set me up
[Chorus]
My mind said
Don’t you dare trust her
Don’t you dare
She’s gonna set you up
(Most importantly)
Please do not love her
Please don’t love her
You cannot have love without trust
(My mind said)
Don’t you dare trust her
Don’t you dare
She’s gonna set you up
(Most importantly)
Please do not love her
Please don’t love her
You cannot have love without trust
I should’ve saw it coming
