Revolutionary

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 motherfucker's head off (got him)
Yeah, load up again, 'cause these motherfuckers are gonna come back for us (we're ready, we're ready)
We gotta be prepared in this day and age
We gotta be prepared for whatever the fuck comes 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 dead)
(There's freedom for everybody or 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 hand, talking about, uh, thee, no)
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 ambitions in a systematic form
Like a religionist 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 bringly generates you
But when you come, original people impersonate you, start to hate you

'Cause the conflict is building within
The ultimate sins 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-Benet 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 MC's
Obstinacy and technique
'Cause I'm the capital of a revolutionary nation
That's infallible, Aztec like the Hannibal
Rip your heart outta your chest and feed it to the cannibals
You're just a fucking animal, but I'm the Neo Sapien

'Cause my original civilization was based upon creation
You know there's 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 assassinations
I'm saying fuck the federal bullshit investigations
Fuck the cover-up of ghetto radiation extermination
Using my people for experimentation
And if it 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)

Yo, what the fuck happen to reality spitting rhyme slayers
These days everybody's tryna 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 cunt clapping
'Cause I used to drink forties with more flavour than these rappers

Lyrical ego trips doesn't make fortification
You're 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've 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 Riker's?
I'm explaining the significance or 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 I begin to sparkle out
And tell my people how we fell into the trap that we live in
Because they locked us up in ghettos, and began to rape our women

So I leave the system unforgiven like East Wood
'Cause I was blessed with lyrical strength to do whatever I could
You should have 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 97.1 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
