Immortal Technique - Revolutionary lyrics
[Immortal Technique - Revolutionary lyrics]
Men talking
Yo load the fuck up (locked and loading)
You too (locked and loading sir)
Remember break that window when
That cop comes in
And blow that motherfuckers head off
-multiple gun shots - (Got him)
Yeah load it up again
Cause these motherfuckers
Are gonna come back for us (We're ready)
We gotta be prepared in this day and age
We gotta
Be prepared for whatever comes the fuck at us
(Word up)
Cause we are living revolutionarily
(Definitely)
You cannot second guess yourself in
These days and times
They're gonna throw whatever they can
At you and you gotta be prepared for it
You gotta be prepared for anything
"It's liberty or it's death
It's freedom for everybody or
It's freedom for nobody!"
No matter what the fuck life throws at me
I continue to make it through indefinitely
Immortal Technique defeats the
Odds repetitively
Until there ain't shit ahead
Of me competitively
Surviving the tough times is imperative to me
Looking at the whole world revolutionarily
They don’t want to hear you old Uncle Tom
Handkerchief heads talking about the odds
Technique will force you
Into strategical retreat
Because I dominate guerrilla warfare
In the streets
There ain't no way to picture
Me without a victory speech
When I reach higher positions
Without the recognition of
Pissed on competition
Cause I conquered their renditions
In a systematic form like
A religious tradition
My mission is to take you
Lyrically break you
Lyrically assassinate you
Lyrically incinerate your body
And recreate you to destroy the power that
Mentally incarcerates you
Cause even though I rip it better
I could not forsake you
You're my people with the same oppressors
So how could I hate you
The revolution of the mind that
Bring me generates you
But when you come original
People impersonate you, start to hate you
Cause the conflict is building
Within the ultimate sin
Is to be ashamed of your skin
My rhymes are like Jamaican over proof
I make the room spin
Intoxicated flow I bleed vodka and brandy
Don't make me choke you down
Like Jon Benét Ramsey
Something demands of me to rip
This fucking shit uncannily
God commanded me to be
A technological disease
And psychologically do battle with
The best emcee's
Upper-case the 'T' in Technique
Cause I'm the capital of
Revolutionary nation that's infallible
Aztec Lecter, Hannibal
Rip your heart out of your chest
And feed it to the cannibals
Your just a fucking animal
But I'm the Neosapien
Cause my original civilization was
Based upon creation
You know theirs no escaping even
Though your heart is racing
I'll put your best disciple
On academic probation fuck the litigation
Fuck the best rapper nominations
And fuck the president I
Voted for assassination i'm saying fuck the
Federal bullshit investigations
Fuck the cover up of
Ghetto radiation extermination
Using my people for experimentation
And if doesn't play hip hop
Then fuck your radio station
No matter what the fuck life throws at me
I continue to make it through indefinitely
Immortal Technique defeats the
Odds repetitively
Until there ain't shit ahead
Of me competitively
Surviving the tough times is imperative to me
Looking at the whole world revolutionarily
Revolutions overturn systems
Revolutions destroy systems! (crowd cheers)
Yo what the fuck happen to
Reality spitting rhyme slayers
These days everybody trying to be
A thug or a player
Where did all the real motherfuckers
Go in the game
Bring back the break dancers and
Graffiti writers with fame
I remember hip hop before
The mic gun clapping
Cause I used to drink forties with
More flavor then these rappers
Lyrical ego trips doesn't make fortification
Your not dope enough, spit self glorification
So don't jerk me around cause
My name ain't masturbation
Life is hard it'll leave you scarred
Cause I been through shit
If you consider rap a job
I suggest that you quit
Don't you understand the audience
Will listen and dance in the club
Crib or car or whatever they get the chance
To be emancipated start debating
Justice in the cipher
Why do you think project rooms look
Like the cells in Rikers
I'm explaining the significance on
The reason behind it
They're preparing your children for
The prison environment
When you don't amount to
Shit prison becomes retirement
But I refuse to be took in
To central booking in chains
Cause sleeping on the floor in cages
Starts to fuck with your brain
The system ain't reformatory
It's only purgatory
Close to hell but I rebel as
Begin to spark an L
And tell my people how we fell into
The trap that we live in
Because they locked us up in ghetto's
And began to rape our women
So I leave the system
Unforgiven like Eastwood
Cause I was bless with lyrical strength
To do whatever I could
You should of seen it coming long
Ago when you were very young
My word is through the father
Holy spirit and his fucking son
Cause when I grab the mic device in front
Of Christ and start to rip it
I'll make Jesus turn around and say
"yo pop this nigga flipped it"
So talk about whatever and be
What you wanna be
But don't mistake the way I break
The faith for simple blasphemy
Cause through the highest frequencies
In the NYC
I'm crushing 971 percent of MC's
No matter what the fuck life throws at me
I continue to make it through indefinitely
Immortal Technique defeats the
Odds repetitively
Until there ain't shit ahead
Of me competitively
Surviving the tough times is imperative to me
Looking at the whole world revolutionarily
