[Verse: Immortal Technique ]
Yo, I hate my job, so I always look to a better day
Far from New York City on a tropical getaway
But not in Miami
'Cause these white Cuban anti-Castros cant stand me
And thats the reason Ill never win a fixed up Latin Grammy
After this racist Latinosll goddamn me
But my black people love me
And when I go to South America, people be tryna hug me
'Cause I talk about reality that effects them
And even though I blew up I could never neglect them
What kind of a revolutionary action would that be?
I be categorizing practically every other MC
But never that, 'cause Im clever with facts, sever your raps
Fake players and thugs will forever be whack
Im still rollin with my squadron heavily strapped
And even if I get killed Ill inevitably be back
Encyclopedia Hispanica over digital dat
Dont ever compare me with small-minded criminal cats
I kill kids on tracks, like Dale Earnhardt
Spit in your face and leave your cheekbone with a burn mark
I was born a genius, but I learned to be street smart
My vacation just started, Im out to the Caribbean
Swimmin in Dominican women the color of cinnamon
You *********ers wish you had the lifestyle Im livin in
[Hook: Immortal Technique]
East Coast to West Coast and everything in between
This is dedicated to everybody chasing their dreams
This ghetto fabulous life really aint what it seems
But Ima make it, 'cause I got survival stuck in my genes
[Outro: Immortal Technique]
Word up (Word!) Immoral Technique
Representing Harlem
All the way out to my fam, in Englewood
Im out, *********er! (Laughs the ghetto way, *********!)
