Immortal Technique - Últimas Palabras lyrics

A new American revolution has
Begun not against
The forces of a colonial kingdom
But a rebellion against an oppressor
That has risen among us
It is not a foreign invasion we have to fear
Rather the threat of a force within our
Nation that has usurped what was
Once a dream of having the greatest
Democracy ever known to man

We now live in a world where
The population has grown exponentially
And the planet is running out of resources to
Sustain us all we in the inner-city and
Those struggling in the suburban
Ghettos may not
Realize it yet, but make no mistake
The people who control the
Technology and run every enterprise that
Makes up our world
Have seen this coming for a long time the
Ideas of renewable energy, global warming
The idea of
Collectively working were purposefully bought
Out, derailed, demonized
Or corrupted in favor of
An economic structure
Designed by a monetary caste system

In a desperate attempt to convince us that
We need to maintain
That extravagant existence
They’ve pretended we might share
In their dream
That we can justify any inhumanity in
It's name out of this blind
Ignorance was born the curse of slavery
Many of the founders of
This nation were themselves Masons that is
Not a Left wing or Right
Wing conspiracy theory it is a
Widely known and accepted fact

So then explain to me how a
Nation founded by men who
Not only understood the long and
Complicated history of Europe
But also that of Africa could permeate such a
Lie in convincing the American
Public that one race of men was superior and
One inferior when, in fact
We know that all the early men the people
Who created civilization and every aspect
Of what we see today, the foundation of all
Modern human life, were from Africa
The greatest cowardice of course came
Not with slavery it'self
Unfortunately but with the excuses for
Slavery for if America
Had been as brave as the Roman Empire and
All other empires that have come
After her, and claimed "No, we were just
Stronger and that’s why we took you
" then when slavery was over
Racism would’ve probably followed in suit

But instead it was the social lie
The religious lie that was told that
Stayed in the minds of people
That separated one human being from
Another in order to
Distract us from the issues
Of class and freedom
They created issues around religion
And race to
Dominate the world for centuries to come

Some claim that they respect
The culture of life
In this country they cry out for indignity
Of children that are slaughtered
Before they are born
But God has not penetrated their souls
For they have no empathy
Nothing in their cold
Hearts for the hundreds of thousands of
Lives we have taken in our wars overseas
For that which they call "collateral damage
" which are the burnt and
Damaged children of the
World they have no prayers
For them only snide
Commentary on the internet and laughter
In their hearts and
Yet you claim to be one with God?

We talk about immigration in this
Country might doesn’t make right
Ladies and gentleman it just makes
Right now what we are
Saying to the rest of the world is, one day
When america grows weak, one day
When her legions falter, on the day when her
Economy crumbles china, Russia, Europe
Whatever power has arisen all you
Have to do is
Come here and conquer us in a few
Military excursions, and then you too
Can set up shop here, and
In 100 years you can tell
Every red-blooded American, "No
You are an illegal human being
I am the true citizen
I have all the rights you have no rights"

Maybe you forgot how you
Got this country maybe
You take for granted the blood, the sweat
The tears, that the people who
Live in practical serfdom
Shed everyday for we may not run America
But we make America run

We talk about the Law
Yet how many indignities have been legal
In the past? How many
Treaties with Native American people
Have we broken? How
Many international laws have
We violated? And
Speaking of laws how can a corporation
Be regulated by a government
That is funded and controlled by
Corporations? How can there be
Accountability for people who see a profit
Margin above the lives of
Americans? Above the lives of human
Beings in other countries?

We have taken the soul out of
Ourselves and placed them inside machines
My words, of course, will be marginalized
Demonized in typical fashion any time you
Dare to question the power structure they
Say you hate America no
I love this country i see
It's beauty every day in
It's people and I love it a lot more
Than those who have abandoned the American
Worker that have chose to
Exploit and try to take away
Every single benefit she has
Those that attempt to make excuses
For every atrocity committed, in the
Name of supposed freedom those who
Demand accountability from everyone
But offer none themselves who favor
Contracts over lives who
Favor invasion and control over
Organic democracy overseas

The greatest flaw that any
Intelligent person has
Is to think that they’re smarter than
Everyone else and so as the government
Has planted it's spies amongst us
We have planted our spies among them they
Have infiltrated every branch of the American
Government they have retrieved names, data
Hard numbers the paper trail
That will expose those that
Truly control this country, those
That control the political parties, those
That control the oil industry
The energy those that stand
Behind the companies faceless
Whose names have never been revealed

Until tod (GUNSHOT)
