Immortal Technique - The Prophecy (Prod by 44 Caliber) (Lyrics)

[HellzDeath]

Every sentence is lyrically-insane.

[Grant123CC]

"the year of 3,000 is bleak,no happily ever after just death following the 4th right disaster"

[rodhavji]

@Grant123CC Isn't it 4th Reich?

[humanTFC]

this is the song that got me hooked on tech in 2004 and still hooked on that shit! phuck everybody on the radio and on the tv none of that can relate to me

[pimpster122]

@humanTFC That's because all that shit is just nerdy beats, unknowingly supporting sociable corruption of an entire species of pre-found-Earthling, being us Humans.

I would not be to uneased if extraterestrials conquored us, but to be conquored by a select few of ourselves, FUCK NO -LET THEM KNOW.

[CobainFan9]

That was... FUCKING AMAZING!

[SomaliaGaming]

no one has gotten ownd so bad as the dude at the beginign whos like the fuck do you do

[Phatfarm1980]

'I might be nobody but wait till I'm together like a symphony. Resounding sound that will continue infinitely'

[plutonium251]

"Attempts to extinguish me don't even bother me none

Like retarded kids throwing ice cubes at the sun"

Haha damn

[jross2021]

3 people don't understand the lyrics.

[STHanson08]

its ptolemy not telome in the lyrics

[Lukel96l]

2 of the best rappers alive are both known as tech I never know which one people are talking about (immortal technique and tech n9ne)

[Snipervenomaz]

I show this song to my English class ; ) My teacher was like O.o" Uh..we learn something today. lol XD

[RedMusicSinging]

@Snipervenomaz really you did? You didn't get in trouble?

[Snipervenomaz]

@RedMusicSinging

Na...man his dope ahah My teacher is really cool we fool around with him not in a sexual way!

[compTon660]

this shits ill as fuck

[NativeAmerikila307]

Everytime i look for an Immortal Technique song i accidentally type Immortal Tech n9ne lol...If they ever did a song together my face would melt and the Earth would probably explode.

[paddys93]

ill shit man, ill shit

[TheTerrez]

lol its funny because if anyone REALLY REALLY understood what he was talking about to its full extent then no one would be arguing if he is good or not. If i were any of you id be trying to warn people. PLEASE listen to this song with caution and understanding...

[hcvideoproductions]

thanks for putting this up, this song is amazing. But some lyrical changes

It's "Dipped in mycin potassium cyanide and liquid bubonic" not "Dip the mic in..."

and it's "Fourth reich disaster" not "Fourth right disaster"

Not trying to be a smartass just trying to help out

[HydroBud98]

"Brothers and Sisters, Friends and I see some Enemy's.In fact I think we'd be fooling ourselves if we had an audience this large and didn't realize that there were some enemy's present"

[cKunke2]

@HydroBud98

Hahaha alright bud take it easy. I have looked into a lot of the stuff he talks about, and for the most part its all overblown BS. I suggest you maybe do the same before taking sides and freaking out?

My point was Immortal Tech isn't a very good rapper, and I "took the time to write the comments I wrote" to get insight on what people see in him, but instead all I got was douchebag fans like you that put others down instead of making an effort to discuss hip-hop.

Get a life.

[hcvideoproductions]

@cKunke2 Actually, immortal technique is one of the last good rappers out there, because he makes music for a cause, unlike people like lil wayne who make mainstream commercialistic pop shit just for money, and with little to no lyrical value whatsoever. And immortal technique actually puts his money to good. He took A MAJORITY of his profits from this album and donated it to orphan programs so they could start their own lives. What has lil wayne done?  This is real rap, not that autotuned shit

[GoodOrion2113]

This is my fav song and my fav part is 1:45 to 2:00

[xNathanBx]

thank you technique for allowing god to let me exist.

[heavybarz]

Omg, this shizz is so deep!

[cKunke2]

Somebody please fill me in on what you all see in this dude. I listen to a crapload of hip-hop, and yes... "real hip-hop" for all you elitists hip-hop heads. Immortal Technique is garbage though! I haven't heard a single song of his where he doesn't sound off beat, sloppy, and just sort of annoying.

Plus its definitely another negative that he never stops talking about the government and conspiricies which aren't even real

[AK47wivme]

@cKunke2 its not really spose to go with the beat , the gye spits historik facks so ovesly hes not here to play games nor hold 2 lt bottles of henny n jump around like sum headless chicken u dig, sulute from turkey.......

[ciupa911]

@cKunke2 or maybe your just a narrow minded person.

[cKunke2]

@ciupa911

Nope, very very far from a narrow minded person. I'll give every type of music/artist a try multiple times. I listen to everything across the board, and that includes tons of hip-hop.

That being said, Immortal Tech sucks

[BrutalValor]

@cKunke2

He calculates planet allignment like Mayan Astronomy, discovering atrocities worse than Aristotle subjecting children to sodomy.

Now, if you knew of Aristotle theories. It's almost mind blowing. Nobody said that Immortal technique was immaculate, he does sometimes sound off beat and depict conspiracies that were long forgotten back into society...

But never the less, he spits rhymes in such a fashion that it draws you in.

Like Esoteric, with his Boston Flow.

It's something different

[edysonmacho]

@cKunke2 Yuo listen to gay songs then,ussy bitch,don't troll if you don't like him,GTFO and never come back,cock sucker!

[HydroBud98]

@cKunke2 "Brothers and Sisters, Friends and I see some ENEMY'S, In fact I think we'd be fooling ourselves if we had an audience this large and didn't realize that there were some ENEMY'S PRESENT"

[hcvideoproductions]

@cKunke2 And, on a brighter note, you said you'd give any music/artist a try, try listening to muse. Completely different music, but whenever I listen to them it makes me think very deeply. Start out with a song like Megalomania, Exogenesis Symphony: Overture (part 1), sunburn, butterflies and hurricanes, or screenager, or spiral static. They are really geniuses in music and are inspired by classical music, but turn it into their own.

[HydroBud98]

@cKunke2 ???Haha why do you even take the time to write the comments you wrote???Asking people to "please fill me in on what you all see in this dude"???Haha if you knew what he was talking about you probably still wont like the music but you would have some respect.How much research have you even done to conclude that certain conspiracy theory's are not true.I do hope you open your eyes and once you do go fuck yourself for talking shit.Haha cKunke2 are you a SLOB son.Your funny!

[hcvideoproductions]

@cKunke2 He doesn't make his music to entertain you, he makes his music to inform you. He doesn't use studio bullshit to enhance his voice, like the rap artists you probably like. And you are obviously too stuck in your little utopian world to realize what is actually real in this country. There is a reason the US is the single most hated country in the whole world. Our media is just a bunch of lying ass holes. You have to be pretty damn ignorant not to see that.

[cKunke2]

@hcvideoproductions

It's clear that this guy has some stuck up fans, because all of you guys are trying to diss me with no grounds whatsoever. I guarantee I'm a bigger hip-hop head than you, and no, I don't listen to Wayne or any of those other mainstream cats flooding the radio. When I listen to music I like to listen to good music, not just someone with things to say but no musical talent. That is exactly how you could sum up Tech.

Im already a Muse fan. I Have copies of all their albums

[hcvideoproductions]

@cKunke2 Ok, well you can't really diss tech because you don't think he's a good musician, when that's not his goal. His goal is to spread the word about what he is talking about. I don't claim to be a hip hop head, and the fact that you just haphazardly pointed that out tells me you're pretty  self confidant. I'm sure a lot of people on this video are more of a hip hop head than you. Every music group has stuck up fans, not just tech. You're just saying that out of discontent.

[hcvideoproductions]

@cKunke2 You hate immortal technique because he sounds sloppy, off beat, whatever, which is a horrible reason, because he just isn't trying to be. His music is about lyrics, and lyrics alone. To me, if a song has lyrics, the lyrics have to actually be passionate, and something the writer cares about to be music. That's why songs about bitches drugs and money aren't music to me. Tech is more classified as poetic hip-hop in my eyes. Not music with "phat" beats and studio tune ups.

[cKunke2]

@hcvideoproductions

I'm not looking for "Phat beats" or "studio tune ups", I'm looking for talent. I see what you're saying you like in him, and I look for much more in my music. If I want poetry or to read informational essays, I'll do that instead. I'm not a fan of this guys music, but I feel some of the stuff that he's saying and I'm sure he's probably a really cool person. That being said, I'm a music fan, and won't compromise.

All I wanted was to know what you guys liked about it, and

[eastcoaststandup]

@cKunke2 to me lyrics>>>>>>>beats sometimes i enjoy listening to his accapela freestyles just because he verbally murders it and I'm a rapper myself

[cKunke2]

@eastcoaststandup

I do enjoy a lot of what he spreads with his lyrics, it's just that over my course of listening to him it seems like I've heard him say a lot of things that are blown out of proportion. You don't ever feel that way while listening to him?

And I truly am not a very ignorant person. I'm all about socially conscious music

[eastcoaststandup]

@cKunke2 well I never feel tech "blows things out of proportion" he was actually my main influence to become a rapper myself to the point where I truly dispise mainstream music I just feel that technique is a very intellegent emcee who stated, and I quote, "My songs are about lyrics, not beats and marketing."

[cKunke2]

@eastcoaststandup

Okay, I hear you. It's just different tastes then I guess, and that's cool. You gotta respect other people and their opinions.

Some of my favorite rappers include Andre 3000 Mos Def Common Nas B.I.G. 2pac Big Boi Big Pun Blu Q-Tip Busta Rhymes DOOM Talib Kweli Lupe Fiasco GZA Method Man Onebelo etc.

[HOUSTONTEXASSCREW]

@cKunke2 immortal got the lyrics but i always like k rino better then immortal

[cKunke2]

@hcvideoproductions

I suppose I got the answer.

[eastcoaststandup]

@cKunke2 that being said you are pretty damn stupid if you belive that the government isn't doing us wrong I garrentee that if it keeps going we're all going to be working for china and tech is the furthest thing from garbage don't disrespect him just because he don't give a fuck about entertaining you he tries to spread the message across and open the eyes of ignorant individuals such as yourself

[KillerofMezzer101]

immortal technique has such a wicked flow. fuck Beanie Siegel IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE IS THE REAL ONE BRINGIN THE TRUTH.

[lobotomiez]

[pickmelter38]

Word.

[Norfnorfnwo248]

2 faggots missed the like button

[Shea354]

Not one of my favorites by him, but it was definitely good. I just feel like it went on and on because there was no hook, but the content was really deep. I liked it. Immortal is definitely a skilled lyricist. Hope more people start peeping his music, for real. We need to get the word out. The revolution will be televised...

[camiloperez000]

someone get me a dictionary niggah

[aceofspade000]

@camiloperez000 yea you should probably get on that if you cant understand the lyrics.

[mcdetinate]

these lyrics are fuckin unbelievable.. clever clever man

[BucKt0]

translation of M3PanoS' post:

"Yeah it was good, but I didn't understand some of the words"

[M3PanoS]

@BucKt0 LOL that was good

[blkhawk60]

probebly the best bars ever written :P

[Bellerophon2200]

I lold

[derrickdmt]

one of the most lyrically talented artists that exist

[M3PanoS]

this guy can definitely spit it but he doesn't completely understand what he's talking about

[XXGDUBSXX]

@M3PanoS and you do?

[M3PanoS]

@XXGDUBSXX nah man

[XXGDUBSXX]

@M3PanoS How doesn Immortal Technique not understand what he is talking about.

[M3PanoS]

@XXGDUBSXX A victory against Immortal Technique will never be done

Just degrees of losing it every second your adding one

Some niggas dream of pushing kilos but I drop tons

With more facts and formulas and philosophical logic

Then a basement full of scientists puffing on chronic

Dip the mic in potassium cyanide and liquid bubonic

[XXGDUBSXX]

@M3PanoS I still dont see how he doesnt understand what he is talking about.

[bob90210]

@M3PanoS

If you're going to say he doesn't fully understand what he's talking about, at least be grammatically correct.

[M3PanoS]

@bob90210 where

[mcdetinate]

@M3PanoS 'its not dip the mic in'.. its 'dipped in mycin potassium cyanide'.. he's referring to the chronic the scientists are smoking.. so he definitely knows what he's talking about!

[M3PanoS]

@mcdetinate i copied that from the description box...

[TehScannyGreen]

@mcdetinate

He more than knows what he's talking about, you may think that there's metaphorical meaning in these lyrics, but there is none.

Every word spoken in these lyrics is true, he uses lyrics and rap as a means of educating the world to the this reality of mis-conception dreamed up by power crazy humans who see no true boundaries to sentient life.

I was not saying that you do not already know this, I was just trying to get the message out there.

[Daibron]

@M3PanoS utter fail

[ac1dchr15t]

this is true fucking hip hop. beautiful music.
