"Your arms too short to box with God"? Erm Black Star(Kweli) used a smiliar line "your firearms are too short to box with God"? And Black Star came out in 98, Stillmatic in 01 if I'm not wrong. So I'm not sure if it originated from Nas. I remember Xzibit using something similar in a song with Kweli as well.
Not that I'm playa hating though, this is my favourite Nas song of all time, and one of my fav. hip hop songs. The line that killed it for me was "I beg for God's help, why they love hurtin' me. I'm your disciple, a thug certainly".
Lines about flying away to Ghana and the metamorphosis into a king from all his struggles were dope too. This is truly Nas on his throne, at the top of his game.
