Lyrics.
1998 Film Elizabeth:
Norfolk: Im content to die for my beliefs, so cut off my head and make me a martyr. The people will allways remember it.
Walsingham: No, they will forget.
Immortal Technqie:
A man who walks with god can walk anywhere, hence i fear nothing.
[Verse 1: Immortal Technique]
The point of guerrilla war is not to succseed
Its allways been just to make the enemy bleed
Depriving the soldiers of the peace of mind that they need
Bullets are hard to telegraph when they bob and they weave
The only way a guerrilla war can ever be over
Is when the occupation cant afford more soldiers
Until they have to draft the last of you into the service
And you refuse cus you dotn see the purpose
The only way to counter the insurgents that are well equiped
Is to paint the people fighting for freedom as terrorists
Then find a faction looking for foriegn investment
Install them in power and murder any objections
You cant stop a revolution from breathing
So to beat them they offer people the illusion of freedom
But when you're done dreaming and wake up tortured for treason
Then you can see them hiding behind the god they belive in
[Hook]
Deep in the trenches in the heart of a war
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
During the night before the start of the dawn
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
When gunshots are raining in the heart of a storm
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
Gurilla war when the army is gone
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
[Verse 2: Immortal Technique]
The purpose of life is a life with a purpose
So id rather die for a cause than live a life that is worthless
I dont need the circus or the day of national observance
I need you to think for you and stop being a servant
p***s only move a square in the game that their used in
And realize it too late like the shooting of Huey Newton
Or Patrice Lumumba or Salvador Allender
Slaughterd by the power hungry branches of their own gente
Ghandi wasnt killed by pakistani nationals
He was a**asinated by a hindu radical
And Che Guevara rebel to a US continent
Was sold to the CIA by bolivian communists
Wasnt yid sac rabeem murderd by a zionist
And Anwar Sadat a victim of the same violence
Malcom X was seen as a threat to the FBI
But to blast him they used muslims from the NOI
Even the 35th president of the republic
Was murdered by factions of his own government
So now that its proven that a soldier of revolution
Or head of an empire disguied in a constitution
Cannot escape the retribution or manipulation
Of the self appointed rulers of the planets corporations
So imma need every generation to put your hands up
Cus you can only get em off your back when you stand up
[Hook]
Deep in the trenches in the heart of a war
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
During the night before the start of the dawn
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
When gunshots are raining in the heart of a storm
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
Gurilla war when the army is gone
Thats the place a martyr is born (m************ its on)
