Well, just a shot in the dark... might be wrong... but:
I think the song is about a guy who wants to make an impression of a real bad-ass, if possible the greatest bad-ass of all time. "I'll malinger on your block and
give the finger to a cop and pick a lock before I knock..."
He constantly compares himself to other potential bad-asses he meets, always ending up saying that HE is the better one at being a bad-ass, not them.
Anything anybody around him does, he can do better or in a greater amount, especially when it is frowned upon. "You're ill but I'm iller", "You do but I wopper", "You hoot but I holler".
This guy is a real mothaf**ka and you should definitely watch out for him because he WILL do anything to succeed, even if it means to mistreat you. "(I'll) Set you up to get on top"
