Here, he – again – references Yeezy and Jigga’s collaboration project, Watch The Throne. In the song, “Niggas in Paris”, Kanye closes up by rapping about “getting in his zone”.
(Yeah, you know, typical Kanye “Zone” pic…)
He’s just saying that he’s at his prime right now, and you definitely don’t want to mess with him.

He’s all talking about how the crown ain’t safe – the crown being that of the “rap king.”
All this talk started from Jay-Z and Kanye talking about their album, Watch The Throne, which – although talking about watching hip-hop, which Jigga and ‘Ye think is the “most holy” kind of music – was taken as an offense: “Jay-Z and Kanye might be calling themselves the kings of rap!”
So, Los goes off about how he’s “the best rapper alive” and all of that, and how he’s gonna take the crown from the fakers.

He’s saying that he’s more intelligent than one of the greatest minds of the 20th Century – Einstein was the dude who gave us the Theory of General Relativity.
Tall tales would have you believing that Einstein couldn’t get straight A’s in a class with anyone, but… He was, contrary to poular belief, an excellent student.

Shad is wondering – how can we know the nature of the “Creator”?
Is it even possible?
Indifferent? Omnipotent? And if so Shad – Question Marks

Here, he is – as many men do, philosophers in particular – questioning the nature of God, or who “God” might be.
What are His motives? What is His purpose?

A blitz is a quick, sudden attack on the quarterback in football.
A comet is a celestial body composed of dust and gas that moves throughout space. It often looks like a star.
So, “Blitz Comet” could be taken to mean that this dude thinks he’s a fast-rising star.
However, a comet typically orbits around a sun or similar star, and this could mean that Blitz Comet will never have the talent equivalent of those he hovers around. Blitz will never match the talent of Alpha Dog.
“Blitz Comet” is also a reference to one of Tyler’s alternative identities, Wolf Haley. It’s a combination of Halley’s Comet and Blitz Wolf, an early anti-German cartoon that parodied Adolf Hitler.

This line basically means that women feel like princesses when they’re in Rocky’s vicinity.
Or, taking the line one step further, this could mean that women feel as though they’ve gone from the bottom to the top – much like Cinderella, who went from being a “maid” of sorts to a princess for a night – when they’re with Rocky, which is only for a night (as long as it takes for Rocky to get it in, then the bitches be out).
Further this is an obvious reference to the Rihanna song “Umbrella”as Rihanna helped Rocky gain fame by picking him to open for her “Diamonds” tour.
He would also recycle this line of jukebox joints
