[Intro]
You have to speak the truth
You have to speak your mind

[Verse 1]
Every time I speak my mind I'm lyrically critical
The pinnacle of being revolutionarily pivotal
Beyond anything ever studied thats metaphysical
Man fuck a minority, I'm not politically minimal
But obviously terminologies that are statistical
Are manufactured to be unequivocally subliminal
Transmitted by monopolized media visuals
So I riddle hypocritically pitiful criminals
Habitually utilizing typical rituals
With false pretense in attempts to be spiritual
TO individuals who believe in biblical miracles
Instead of themselves, because they're not thinking original
And the color of their skin makes them feel invisible
Like microscopic miscarriages lynched wit the umbilical
Only a fuckin imbecile would think their uncorrectable
Cause your susceptible to becoming more than a spectacle
Remember that your flesh your blood and you body are dissectable
I'll beat you until your vegetable
And wake up in a hospital covered in poisonous chemicals
In a fetal position wit your face sewn to your testicles
Thinkin that you were kidnapped by extraterrestrials
You got heart? I'm the blood that pumps in your ventricles
Technique, I'm like ya soul nigga.. indispensable
Wit no respect for those that cower at the hour of revolution
Cause the government owes my people restitution
Instead of sedatives like cocaine and prostitution
Conclusion is that you'll have to violently silence me
Cause I raid the airwaves of cutthroat piracy
In school my teachers blinded me
But now I can see
I'm mentally and revolutionarily free
Broadening Horizons about what my people could be
If we wasn't set up to get shot locked or OD
You see families bleed because of corporate greed
And monopolizing weed is virtually impossible
So it wont be legalized and thats another obstacle
But I'm still rollin up pocket fulls of tropical
The governments involved directly so its unstoppable
Like a nuclear rocket full of biochemical toxins that invade the ecological
Improbable that the average intellect could understand
So I encrypted this into hip hop thats in high demand
and spread it through the ghetto of every city like contraband
Stomp a man of any complexion with a devilish nature
Cause I'm tryin to save the earth, but your just next in line to rape he

@pimpster122 ahahah i was high first off and second you talk without knowing anything you have no conscience so you cannot reason or question basiclly you are just a mindless person who uses only half maybe not even half of your brain. you can keep acting like you dont know but what good does that do you??? the only one your lying to is yourself

[pimpster122]

@NEFF153 You are fucked LMAO, What the fuck kind of reply is that you moron. Don't even answer!

[NEFF153]

@pimpster122 you obviously dont understand "Only a fuckin imbecile would think their uncorrectable

Cause your susceptible to becoming more than a spectacle

Remember that your flesh your blood and you body are dissectable" and you dont know about what he "speaks on" and ask yourself why the canadian part is important

[NEFF153]

@pimpster122 you prolly listen to abunch of hiphop without knowing the purpose behind it. TUPACS BACK??? and you prolly didnt know that hip hop started when the black panther group started huh??? dont talk about smarts because you believe everything your told there is no reason to talk to you. you are stubborn and bent on denying the truth have a nice life tho. Peace and Love

[NEFF153]

@pimpster122 yes i do and obviously you dont understand this POEM as i do. this message is very urgent. and i think you know that but you are just lieing to yourself and the reason why im an "angry coloured person" is because is see the world as what it really is and im guesiing your canadian because the way you spelt colour. and i never said i was better your putting words in my mouth. and im guessing you only think with your subconscience so you dont know shit ha.

[pimpster122]

@NEFF153 I actually wonder if you even know 3rd world, as in the album or song.

[pimpster122]

@pimpster122 ...Simply becasue I feel bad that you very doubtfully know anthing about honour or personal integrity to other's thoughts, feelings, or wills.

[pimpster122]

@NEFF153 -I never said I know anything about you except what you have clearly stated to the world with every public post I have checked under your name. You being an angry coloured person DOES NOT mean you are better than any other angry person. In fact, I believe you have no idea how people like Tech live, so do not talk to me, talk ot the audience you are presenting to on youtube forums, like the rest of us knowledgable people. I am trully wasting my time typing to you...

[NEFF153]

@pimpster122 and if you dont like Tupac you dont know shit. i gaurentee that any rapper you say you like is influenced by Tupac. there a reason for the song Tupac Back because his movements back. and i listen to what he speaks on i dont know why you even said sings about???

[NEFF153]

@pimpster122 your talking like you know me. i didnt just find this music. i listen to what he says and i almost live the exact same thoughts of tech. espically lines like a black panther mindset with a spic fist and shit like that. i could explain abunch of this shit if i wanted
