Voices of the Voiceless

Lyrics

These times are coming
 We told you about them but you motherfuckers was sleeping
 Now you gotta wake up
 The time has come
 Lowkey
 Yeah
 Immortal Technique
 Harlem, motherfucker
 Ha ha ha, we here
 Let's make history
 ♪
 From West 10 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 realized 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 atomized by the Thermate in the Twin Towers
 Those living through the wars
 Ask me what I do this for
 Put the world in its 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 its old habits
 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, 'cause 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
