Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was the heavy weight king at the age of twenty-one
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 gold, consequently came givings
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 take down by a hooker five feet tall
[Verse 2]
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
[Verse 3]
When push  comes to  shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, he'll be standin' above
[Verse 4]
I was a battle of brains, a battle of wit
So my man got his mad skills, Allen Dershowitz
But he left him out to  dry, the judge was a fool
Usin' this case as a publicity tool
So it's off to the cell to meet the prison 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
[Verse 5]
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
[Verse 6]
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, he'll be standing above
[Verse 7]
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 gettin' off track
But 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
[Verse 8]
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
[Verse 9]
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, kick ass
When push comes to shove, he'll be standin' above
[Verse 10]
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I said I gotta set him free
I gotta set that motherfucker free
