Religion destroyed spirituality u must be in tune with ur higher self thats when u truly walk with god cuz u are it just not aligned at the moment. The same consciousness that is god is the same consciousness that lies in every living cell every single atom molecule is god. how do u think it is omnipresent. U need to research in ancient hermetic and astrology ull begin to understand the philosophy of spiritual which is life itself not be guided by blind fate . Stop being a shepherd and be a leader for urself

    Back in my early high school days I didn't respect Immortal Technique enough as a rapper. Largely because I wasn't well versed in critical thinking of lyrics. But now that a handful of years have passed I can say with confidence that I understand his music more now. He has my eternal respect.

  • @dawiser1
    @dawiser1 9 років тому +57

    The lyrics of this song carries such an important meaning. To me, it's about the self-esteem of an oppressed (or previously) people and how they need to start a revolution, not overtly, but within themselves to find their pride and inner strength again and love themselves... instead of "looking at themselves through the eyes of people who hate them".

The guitar which makes the beat.....fuckin hell! Truly a masterclass from whoever it was that produced this GOLD and the lyrical genius which is Immortal Technique.
    I don't think I've heard a song about LIFE as powerful as this...EVERYTIME I listen to this it's as if I'm listening to it for the first time again because I'm still after countless times of hearing these powerful lyrics amazed at just how much he bodied this shit!

I would love for this comment to get likes so it can be seen by others who feel/felt like me.

    Tech said he wrote this song in just an afternoon in contrast to Dance with the Devil and You Never Know, which both took years.
    But this is still my favorite, I can't say why.

      @kgtkoatl 9 років тому +6

      I can see that it doesn't have a story line I always thought he sort of just wrote this out of his mind quickly it's still one of my favorite songs ever

      summr123 no, he's not famous because he says the truth. About everything he raps about, if he was praising the goverment he would've been famous.

    • @kingthy8374
      @kingthy8374 9 років тому +11

      +summr123 all i hear is not everyone wants to listen to political music, not everyone wants to listen to conspiracy theories, not everyone will accept Immortal Technique as an Independent Rapper. Immortal Technique is a rapper that gets 100 percent of every song he makes, a rapper that doesn't have a big label company telling him what to do, a rapper that comes from the struggle and now is an activist speaking the truth. Immortal may never get a Grammy, but he has influenced me to become aware of my own country, my government, and inform me about today's world wide problems.

    Whoever disliked this song is blind.. And it's sad.. That so many people are blind. I shook his hand twice and had a chance to talk to him for a minute. Every second in his presence made me feel like a true warrior. I feel like he really is a genuine person that cares about the people, about the world. And that is a man I'd follow. That is a man id fight side by side with along with every other righteous man trying to make the world a better place.

    Quit my job yesterday after having worked 11 years there. Started to kill me inside not doing what I came here to do. Knew what it was for years, but waited until now to act on it. Psychosis almost killed me, sleeping in city woods while maintaining dayjob was rough, but I saved enough to do this. And I'm a nobody, healer-in-training.
    My message to you is, you can do it too. Believe in yourself, only you can do that.
