@urbmon First verse is about Rakeem's brother getting shot for refusing to comply with a gunner's request. Second one is about a man who got AIDS from practicing unprotected sex.
Rakim's brother was killed when he was a teenager, which is the first verse. The "i wish i had a chance to sing these three words" means he didn't get a chance to tell his brother he loved him.
The rhyme from Ghostface is just fiction to illustrate a point about regrets, despite the fact that he flows like liquid butter on a slippery dip.
Pretty sure RZA is just delivering the verse, because of the following;
"(Hey, Rakeem!) What? (Your little brother got shot!)"
Fairly certain it's Rakeem/Rakim's brother who died, and it's just RZA doing it testament.
Same as i'm fairly certain Ghostface was never hittin' skins with a girl named Themla with some dude called Moe from a Shelter, i figure they're urban legends/stories from Shaolin/Staten.

RZA's first name was Robert, his spiritual/rap name was Prince Rakeem, but his friends and family called him Ra for short.
