The lyrics of Brutha's song Set It Off suggest a man who is finally getting what he has been waiting for, and it feels so good that he cannot contain his excitement. The song's opening lines say it all, with the man expressing how good he feels. The next lines suggest that the woman has been strict with him and does not want him to touch her yet, and he asks for patience, hoping to prove his worthiness to her. The man has met the woman's parents, and they have told him he did not deserve her, but he has been patient and has not caused any drama, and now she is finally giving him what he wants.
In the chorus, the man says that he is about to "set it off" and hopes that the woman can handle what he is going to give her. He warns her that he is not trying to scare her, but he has been waiting for three months and is ready to give her "the business," which suggests that he is going to satisfy her sexually. He adds that they might wake up all the neighbors, which emphasizes the intensity of what is about to happen.
