Lowkey, Immortal Technique - Voices of the Voiceless lyrics

[Lowkey, Immortal Technique - Voices of the Voiceless lyrics]

From West End to the West Bank
I write righteous rhymes with my right and
Wrestle the devil with my left hand
Never work for a Zionist
Never been a yes man
My art is like Rembrandt painting
Pictures of death camps
The average person is allergic to
The words of wisdom this is for everyone of
Saddam's Kurdish murder victims
And all the pure souls that never
Had the chance to speak
Truth pumps in my arteries and
Causes my heart to beat
For soldiers haunted and tortured
By guilty memories who realised too late to
Reveal their real enemy it's all dead wrong
For every victim of racist persecution
From Auschwitz to Hebron
My words may sting cowards
For people that were atomised by the
Thermite in the Twin Towers
Those living through the wars
Ask me what I do this for
Put the world in it's place before
It put you in yours

What happens under darkness shall
Come to light
Can't silence us even though you try

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless

Take our freedom, Can't take our pride
Come what may we will survive

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless

Keep my third eye hidden under
My New York fitted
A crazy unmarried man that
Deserves to be committed
The future is encrypted in my troubled lyrics
Dream that I've been somewhere for weeks
Then wake up in a couple minutes
Sweat dripping with visions
Of population control
Thoughts overflowing my world like the
Melting of the North Pole
My people are targeted by
Military crack committees
So I'm bucking at the feds
Like natives in Rapid City reality savage
My words are like a riot in Paris
The voice of the voiceless
That voice is social imbalance
So stand strong or sit harder
In your mental palace
Blinded inside a Kingdom united
To it's old habit's
But now, Middle Passage coming, War Chant
African drumming gatling gun humming
Rapid fire mechanism, reckless living
That checks the rhythm of perfectionism
Slave condition
While you're singing God save the system

What happens under darkness shall
Come to light
Can't silence us even though you try

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless

Take our freedom, Can't take our pride
Come what may we will survive

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless

Detain my body
But you can't imprison my mind
If it's my time I'll probably die
With my fist in the sky
These are the thoughts of a man
Who can't escape from his coma
Cries of a young virgin girl who
Got raped by them soldiers

Birthing a screaming bastard
Post colonial nation
Subject to childhood diseases, famine
War and inflation
Education molded you into your masters image
And you forgot who the fuck you
Were before the war was finished

You're hearing the ghosts of Nagasaki
You're hearing Hiroshima
Beautiful babies being born with
The weirdest features
You might never see me in the charts
But Inshallah my seed can see peace in Iraq

But peace and freedom can never be given
That's historically forbidden
Cos only collision is the recipe
Changing the course of destiny
So I'm strapped with weaponry

Cause the government don't give a
Fuck about protecting me

What happens under darkness shall
Come to light
Can't silence us even though you try

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless

Take our freedom, Can't take our pride
Come what may we will survive

You can try to avoid us but it's pointless
You can never avoid the
Voices of the voiceless"
