Its several lines quoted word for word from a previous source, so I agree with Knowledge God that it should reference Balthasar in the song credits.
This was really interesting and it was also a bit disappointing to read the same exact quote ripped, from a writing stand point.
I suggest y'all give the book a read:

i love gza hes by far my favorite emcee. but this is biting. but i still like this line very much cuz he actually invented it himself 'to be blunt the beef was cooked uplike coke goods' everyone gets how 'cooked up' connects with 'beef' but no one realises that 'blunt' is connected to coke goods' cuz theyre drugs
wow... damn gza... wasnt even reworded lol but.,.. nothing new under the sun. so it was gza dropping words of wisom as his single.. not that bad, idk how to feel about it actually
Should we snitch on GZA to get him sued???
lol
I'm digging this topic out 'cus it's one of the best topic on this forum, no doubt.
It's kinda uncool that GZA took those bars - I think that MC like him, should never do that, but it happened so fuck that now.
Btw. I'm so impressed that diggy found out about it. It's amazing you discovered it by yourself
"I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth" (Rev. 3:15-16)
People call Jay Z a biter for grabbing bars off biggie and others it's no real different to what GZA has done here tbh. No different to people saying Led Zeppelin stole music for jacking riffs and lyrics from other songs.
I'll definitely search the book out though.

Did you know there is lots of snitching going on in this thread?
He already copied RZA's name and changed one letter.
