(Yo it's the) G.O.D., Father Pt. III

Heavy on the wrist, cube-link, my ice ring 
Drama we bring, yeah/yo that's a small thing 

Awright now, pay attention to the crime rhyme Houdini P 
Keepin' you niggaz in perspective 
Mobb, representative, call me the specialist 
Professional, professor at this rap science 
Up in the laboratory, here's why your small rhyme bore me 
Store bought rap ain't shit, my category 
is that of an insane who strike back (what?) 
I draw first blood, it's over with, and that's that 
You want to square off, forsake and slice that cat 
You get splashed, from back of your head, to ass crack 
Surgical signs to the end, with iron map 
Which bring, apocalypse to this game called rap 
Not a game but quite serious and yo in fact 
You'll be runnin' for dear life so far you might fall off the map 
Fuckin' with P, you need a gat 
At least to have the opportunity to bust back 
First shot the motherfucker pack around world premier 
Shook individual bound from blind fear 
Scared to death niggaz fall to they worst fear 
My retail's in braille, for vision impaired 
You lookin' for P, well you can find him everywhere 
In a project near you, I'll be right there 
I was brought up and taught to have no fear (now) 
Live wire niggaz stay behind me in the rear (now) 
Cowardly hearts, step aside, stand clear (fear) 
My bloodthirsty niggaz got they eyes on you 
QBC, lime Bacardia, G.O.D. Father Pt. III 
On some hashish, to Embassy Suite, crash your party 

[Chorus: x2] 
 
Yeah yo, lime Bacardi, gettin bent, crash the party 
Handle be-I, bringin it to anybody 
Physical damage, crowd control handle cannons 
Hittin' you ripped, leave your bloodstream contamin-ed 
While you actin out of character, we observin' 
Drillin' 'em down so hard, I know we felt you comin' at 'em 
Hennessee raps float like the Phantom 
Runnin' you up out of the spot in which you standin' 
Never second-guess a cat who hold gat 
Concealed, but easily revealed and fast 
Body castin raps to get your back snapped in half 
and severed, impossible pain beyond measure 
Sheisty living brought him to his last bread (bread) 
Life changed around quick to one stead (stead) 
Face full of fear, conquerin' your ice grill (grill) 
Tragedies, put him to sleep like NyQuil (NyQuil) 
Givin' a overdose of this rap potent 
Potentially dangerous, fatally left open 
for the roaches, scavengers, that's EMS 
Funeral homes, anticipatin' your death 
That's the dead truth, check in the morgue, you'll find proof 
Enough to make you think and stop before your ship sink 
to the bottom, night owl leave the mark and spot him 
You know the routine, face up before I shot him 

[Chorus: x4]
