[verse 1]
they told me i would never make it, i would never achieve it
reality is nurishment, but people donand't believe it
i guess its hard to stomach the truth like a bulimick
its a dirty game and nobody is willing to clean it
but this is for the paralygics, people dreaminand' of runninand'
ladies married to men who dont please and'em, dreaminand' of cominand'
urbanly murderous like david berkowitz when iand'm gunninand'
some cowards on the internet didnand't think i would sell
scared to talk shit in person, cuz they stuck in a shell
and couldnand't understand the pain of being stuck in a cell
hell is not a place you go, if you not a christian
itand's the failure of your lifes greatest ambition
itand's a bad decision to blindly follow any religion
i donand't see the difference in between the raw and the wrong
soldiers emptyinand' the clips at little kids and they moms
iand'm just like a desperate motherfucker strapped to a bomb
humanity is gone, smoked up in a gravity bong
by a democrat republican cheech and chong
immortal technique, you never heard me preachinand' a song
iand'm not controversial, iand'm just speakinand' the facts
put your hands in the air like you got the heat to your back
and shake your body like a baby born addicted to crack
and since life is a gamble like the crabstables at vegas
i freestyle my destiny, itand's not written in pages
[verse 2]
i hate it when they tell us how far we came to be
as if our peoples history started with slavery
painfully i discovered the shit they kept us secret
this is the exodus like the black jews out of egypt
i keep it reality based wit the music i make
brought the truth to your face with the style i run wit
like the navy missile that shot down flight eighthundred
iand'm like the africans who came here before colombus
and from the 15hundreds until after the model
i watch latin america get raped in the sorrow
you see the spanjards never left espace the cologne
and if you donand't believe me, you can click on uni mission
i never seen so much racism in all of my life
every program and newscast, all of them white
itand's like a part tide with 10 percent ruling the rest
that type of stress and'll make me put the fucking tool to your chest
step in my way nigga, i wouldnand't wanna be ya
i burn slow like (a) pissing drunk with gonnorrhea
iand'll do a free show in north korea
burning the flag
while jay edgar hoover politicians dress up in drag
try to confuse you, makinand' it hard to follow this:
capitalism en democracy are not synonymous
you swallow propaganda like a birth control pill
sellinand' your soul to the eye on the back of the dollar bill
but that will never be me, cuz i am leavinand' the past
like an abused wife with the kids, leavinand' your ass
like a drug addict clean and sober, leavinand' the stash
unbreakable technique leavinand' the plane crash
iand'm out with the black box and i refuse to return
i spit reality, instead of what you usually learn
and i refuse to be concerned with condecending advice
cuz i am the only motherfucker that could change my life
[ending]
some people think i wonand't make it
but i know that i will
escape the emptiness
cuz that shit is slow and it kills
the flow and the skill
i made yand'all believe that it last
you can make the future
but it starts with leaving the past
