Paroles
Like anybody, I would like to live — a long life; longevity has its place But I'm not concerned about that now I just want to do God's will And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain And I've looked over And I've seen the Promised Land I may not get there with you But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land So, I'm happy, tonight I'm not worried about anything, I'm not fearing any man Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord [Immortal Technique] The ghetto is like a prison with invisible bars No matter where you at, it always follows you where you are And it's hard out there for a pimp to get out of But it's harder for the hooker that he beat the shit out of I got niggas underground in the Confederate states Ironically runnin' from slavery that prison creates So, I never hate on the South: I respect they vision I just hate on niggas that promote Samboism And white execs that love to see us in that position They reflect the stereotypes of America's vision They want us dancin', coonin' and hollerin' Only respect us for playin' sports and modelin' More than racism: it's stay in your place-ism More people are trapped in practical blackface-ism So f*ck a Civil War between the North and the South It's between field niggas and slaves that are stuck in the house Civil war for the soul of a nation This is a struggle to save civilization Demonstrations overthrowin' the occupation The annihilation of mental colonization Civil war for the soul of a nation We fight for the future of our civilization Destroy the corrupt government organizations Tryin' to survive cultural assassination [Killer Mike] Crip niggas, Blood niggas, eses, Asians Why the f*ck we warrin' with each other's population? The devil wanna dead all our population People and Folk Nation, why the separation? Why we got Jamaicans hatin' on Hatians When the British and French raped both nations? Mexicans and Blacks kill each other, straight hatin' While the government profits from prison population If you on the bottom, be you Anglo or Asian You gotta recognize the realness inwhat I'm sayin' You gotta recognize another G ain't the enemy When the police ride and kill us frequently We gotta make the youth see where the truth be If you a G, then grow and develop GD 50 years of gangs and our people still poor If we really run the streets, we should really end war Civil war for the soul of a nation This is a struggle to save civilization Demonstrations overthrowin' the occupation The annihilation of mental colonization Civil war for the soul of a nation We fight for the future of our civilization Destroy the corrupt government organizations Tryin' to survive cultural assassination [Brother Ali] Our hearts were torn apart just like y'all was Watching towers full of souls fall to sawdust Every time we called your office you ignored us Now you holdin' hearings on us all inside of Congress Microscopes on us, ask if we're jihadists My answer was in line with all of the Founding Fathers I think Patrick said it best: Give me liberty or death I shall never accept anything less You claim innocence, you play victimless But you gave the kiss of death in the name of self-defense Slavery and theft have brought our nations to the end Of pacifying your citizenry with excess We believe in freedom, justice, security But they're only pure when they're applied universally So certainly if I rage against the machine My aim was only to clean the germs out of the circuitry Urgently puttin' fear inside your heart Make you burn Qu'rans and tell me not to build a mosque Me, my wife, and babies we ain't never made jihad We just want to touch our heads to the floor and talk to god Ask him to remove every blemish from our heart The greatest threat of harm doesn't come from any bomb The moment you refuse the human rights for just a few What happens when that few includes you? Civil war
