The audio at the beginning is from the Jim jones Jonestown death tape. It was originally written as gangster rap style song, but they decided to change the style.
The lyrics are about the acid they took in high school when it was in a liquid form and they would ‘drop’ it on their tongues.

[Cole Alexander]
How it goes, feel my nose
Like a ghost, I leave coast
When I boast, feel so lame
What a shame, smoke my brain
Got no name, it's insane
What a game, pulled by the pain
Will it rain, nine times out of ten
Ain't got no money, but the Gods make it fucking rain
[Chorus: Black Lips]
That's how it goes, the drop, and through your brains
That's how it goes, the drop, and through your veins
That's how it goes, the drop, it's in your veins
The drop I hold, and slow, and will reign
[Cole Alexander]
Witch's hair, truth or dare
Chucks I wear, rocks in flare
It's not fair, cause I'm gone
Feel so calm, blast a don
Was upon, it's the dawn
PC-ROM, in my palm
Atomic bomb, Vietnam
BlackLips.Com in Islam
[Chorus]
[GZA Verse] [NOT ON ALBUM ORIGINAL]
Express train in the wrong lane, the local track
Strain moving through the vein, explain how the vocal cracked
A magician, his assistant sold me Blue Magic
I was told to keep my distance til it became tragic
Now I'm in the attic, in confusion, causing static
If the space is the final frontier, it's through the mathematics
Conciousness creates the material world
She's topless on the counter, but a material girl
But then, it's just a flashing moment, so I acknowledge opponents
A move gotta be made fast, so I don't condone it
Looking at the picture for forty minutes, now I'm in it
Standing on the frontline, captain and the lieutenant
You see that flag of armor? Nothing but a badge of honor
And the piece that smoke up from the pipe, is from a bag of karma
A simple word from Black Lips that sink ship
Before I fire off one, I give 'em a pink slip
The Drop I Hold was written by Cole Alexander.
