[Chorus: GZA & Killah Priest]
When a motherfucker steps out his place
And gets slapped in his motherfuckin' face
Just because the motherfucker tried the base
For G-O-D, for G-O-D
And while I see his whole clique pass us by
Motherfuckers think they qualify
And for those niggas want to try
The G-O-D, the G-O-D
[Verse 1: GZA]
Yo, I'm not caught up in politics
I'm no Black activist on a so-called scholar's dick
I come through with the Wu and drop math
And versatile freestyle bombs on phonographs
And deliver all things in number and weight
Searched to death on how living things relate
'Cause at a young age, I was molded in a religion I relied on
And got caught up in superstition
Scared to split poles, ducked black cats
Once in a while, threw salt over my back
But with knowledge of self from off the shelf
Made things seemed complicated now small like elves
So turn off the lights, light a candle, and have a séance
Pull a lid off the Dean Martin scandal
Witches, warlocks, spooks, and holy ghosts
RZA, let's defraud the hoax
[Chorus: GZA & Killah Priest]
When a motherfucker steps out his place
And gets slapped in his goddamn face
Just because the nigga, what he tried to base
For G-O-D, for G-O-D
And while I see his whole clique pass us by
Motherfuckers think they qualify
And for those niggas want to try
The G-O-D, the G-O-D
[Verse 2: GZA]
We were on the same ship when the slaves were checked
I had to pull your card, you was on the top deck
So I plotted my escape
I saw the thin line between love and hate
And fast from the hog on the plate
I suffered brutal pain from whips and chains
Punishments that were set to wash the brain
So look, listen, observe, and also respect this jewel
Drawed up, detect and reflect this light I shine
Because my powers is refined
Through the truth, which manifest through eternal minds
Purified gasses and masses
The same elements that helped spark civilization classes
I see brothers quote math plus degrees
Lip-professing-ass niggas can't feed they own seeds
[Chorus: GZA & Killah Priest]
When a nigga steps out his place
And gets slapped in his motherfuckin' face
Just because the nigga, what he tried to base
For G-O-D, for G-O-D
While I see his whole clique pass us by
Motherfuckers think they qualify
And for those niggas want to try
The G-O-D, the G-O-D
When a motherfucker steps out his place
And gets slapped in his goddamn face
Just because the nigga, what he tried to base
For G-O-D, G-O-D
And while I see his whole clique pass us by
Motherfuckers think they qualify
And for those niggas want to try
The G-O-D, the G-O-D
