You're tied to the track of my train of thoughts
And controlling my thoughts is like taming sharks

And these hoes wanna kick it with me, I'm a sensei
And I got fat pockets, you niggas in shape

Tools on deck, tattoos on necks
Life is a bitch, I'll make her your ex

Better turn to God 'fore I turn to Godzilla
How the fuck you gon talk shit to diarrhea

Motherfucker it's on
I'm just rubbin em wrong
Put a bug in my ear
But not in my phone

I'll have a broke motherfucker run in your home
For a crumb and a bone
And put one in your dome


I think the IANAHB series might be too much for some people. It seems like Wayne's philosophy for it is to turn every rhyme into an outrageously imaginative punchline. This is a bit of a double edged sword, because while it provides extra depth and replayability for the diehards, a lot of it can get lost on the uninitiated.

The only consistent thing in these bars is the chaos, and the first few lines allude to that fact, letting you know that you're in for an uncontrolled ride. Then it's metaphor after metaphor, with the kind of wordplay that leaves you wondering if you heard it right.

"You niggas in shape" = "you niggas broke"
"I'll make her your ex" = "I'll kill you"
"talk shit to diarrhea" = "you're not in my league"

Turn to God vs turn to Godzilla is extra clever, I think, with Wayne allowing his victims some time to get their affairs in order before he becomes an agent of destruction.

The cherry on top is the fact that he doesn't have to spend all that much money to have someone deleted.
