Overpower y'all tiny noise like locusts
Like sunlight through a magnifying glass I'll focus and
Burn a hole straight through ya brain and leave ya open (oh shit!)
And let the venom soak in
You start sweatin and goin through convulsions from dope shit I writ

Leavin niggas stuck, I let spit
Trapped up in a web of a nigga that's sick
I'll wrap you up in cocoon, you caught up in the midst
It's dangerous, risky business fuckin with this
Contender number one I put you on top of the list
You're the best challenger so far I'll give you this

But peep this (what?) fatal shots to solar plex
Man down, now who dares to go next?
Like General Monkmonk orders to chop necks
I send a message to my whole clique to bomb shit
Atomic, no time for calm shit
We hyperactive and it's time for Vietnam bit
Your whole alliance gets single handedly bombed
Take heed to the apostle's warning

This is his song about his struggles with Sickle Cell.

I dated a girl with sickle cell disease and we're still close. That shit sucks, man. A lot of nights in the hospital and trying to enjoy the good times between the crises. The awful thing is, doctors and researchers are pretty close to curing it, but if funding dries up, then I doubt we're going to see movement on it with our current govt.

Heartbreaking. RIP, P. You were never a shook one.

sad to read the news. prayers to his family and friends. his music was the soundtrack to my coming up. not many rapper deaths have bothered me as much....but Prodigy passing really hurts. I miss Big L (...because I watched him rise from day one) and now I will be missing Prodigy. I still rock 'The Infamous' and various other singles.
