Immortal Technique - Internally Bleeding lyrics
[Immortal Technique - Internally Bleeding lyrics]
The things I've seen in life will
Make you choke by surprise
Like an aborted fetus in a
Jar that opened it's eyes
Provokin' my demise
I'll leave your spirit broken inside
Like the feeling of 50 million
People hopin' you'd die
And niggas wonder why my heart is
Full of hatred and anger
'Cause some bitch killed my firstborn
Son with a coat hanger
I strangled out the pain until my
Soul was empty and cold
Crippled and worthless
So I thought that it could never be sold
My mother told me that placin' my
Faith in God was the answer
But then I hated God cause
He gave my mother cancer
Killin' her slow like the Feds
Did to the Black Panthers
The genesis of genocide is
Like a Pagan religion carefully hidden
Woven into the holidays of a Christian
I had a vision of nuclear
Holocaust on top of me and this is prophecy
The words that I speak from my lungs
The severed head of John the
Baptist speakin' in tongues
Like Che Guevara
My soliloquies speak through a gun
Pain in slow motion like trees
That reach for the sun
Nigga, the preachin' is done
'Cause I don't got a DJ, like Reverend Run
I curse the life of any
Man who kills benevolent ones
I never asked to be the messenger
But I was chosen to speak the words of
Every African slave dumped
In the ocean, stolen by
America, tortured, buried, and frozen
Written out of the history books
Your children are holdin'
Internally bleedin', cold-blooded
Stripped of emotion
I go through the motions
But there's no life in my eyes
It's like I'm hooked up to a respirator
Waitin' to die
Hooked up to the fuckin' chair
Waitin' to fry
Soothin' an electrocution currently used
In my execution
Producin' thoughts at the speed of light
Burnin' confusion
I'm losin' my sight, breathin' is tight
The evening is white
I made my peace with the Lord
And now I stand on his right
(Death is a another part of life)
These are my last words
I'm havin' difficulty breathin'
Dyin' on the inside, internally bleedin'
Angel of Death draggin' me
Away while I'm sleepin'
Watchin' my world crumble
In front of me, searchin' for meanin'
These are my last words
I'm havin' difficulty breathin'
Dyin' on the inside, internally bleedin'
Angel of Death draggin' me
Away while I'm sleepin'
Watchin' my world crumble
In front of me, searchin' for meanin'
Make you choke by surprise
Like an aborted fetus in a
Jar that opened it's eyes
Provokin' my demise
I'll leave your spirit broken inside
Like the feeling of 50 million
People hopin' you'd die
And niggas wonder why my heart is
Full of hatred and anger
