(Set it off, set it off)
(Set it off) oh yeah
Oh yeah yeah
Let's set it off
Oh yeah
You can make it happen

Ohay, Ohay hey
Kings and Queens, it's our time to rise
Write the book story of our lives
This is us taking back the night
Ohay, Ohay
Break the spell
We were born this way
Be yourself, forget the DNA
Everybody raise your hands and say
Ohay, Ohay

Sound the alarm, get on your feet
Let's set it off and rock this beat
Dance 'til your heart is wild and free
Ooh, oh, oh
Feeling the power, let it all out
Like what you see in the mirror, shout
We got the keys, the kingdom's ours
Ooh, oh, oh
Ohay, Ohay hey

Let's set it off
Oh yeah
Start a chain reaction
And never let it stop
Let's set it off
Oh yeah

Yo, it's time to set this thing off
Let's make it happen now
I'ma make my own future, ignore all the rumors
Show 'em my passion sound
They all told me to back down
Judgin' me 'cause of my background
Thinkin' bout changin' my path now
Nah, I ain't goin' out like that now
Feeling the power, let it all out
Like what you see in the mirror, shout
We got the keys, the kingdom's ours
Ooh, oh oh

Oh yeah
Let's set it off
Oh yeah, let's set this off
Start a chain reaction
And never let it stop
Let's set it off
Let's set this off
Oh yeah
Let's set this off
You can make it happen
With everything you got
Let's set it off

Get ready, set it off (come on)
