This line references E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web. In the book, a pig named Wilbur is saved from being slaughtered by a spider named Charlotte, who writes phrases in her web to dissuade his farmer.

In Kendrick’s case, a pig is a slang term for a police officer who isn’t saved from the wrath of Kendrick’s weapon.

As Jay said himself:

abra (אברה) means “to create” and cadabra (כדברא) means “as I say”.

Jay also uses “abracadabra” in his song Jazzmatazz (Guru tribute) when he mentions “i look the devil in his eye and say abracadabra. then drown him in the mighty light, his brain couldn’t fathom” so he’s referencing religion and abracadabra, a play on words.

Jay views God (Elohim) as the grand architect of the world, and says to respect his design as well as not to go against him. Considering that Jay E is a 5 percenter he could be referring to himself in this line as well.

Note the nod to a classic Guru/Bahamadia joint; we know that Jay is a fan of Jazzmatazz

Jay seems to be shouting out Jamaica here and in the previous line. Jamaica is home to a large population of Rastafarians, some of which smoke and distribute weed.

After he smoked he got food. Patties in general and coco bread are extremely popular in Jamaica.

Rather than doing it the normal way, he’s trying to have tantric sex. To state it simply, Tantric sex involves a spiritual awareness of the erotic pleasures derived from sex.

Instead of doing his music the normal way, he wants to do it while spiritually and generally more aware of its results, their consequences and the rewards they bring.
