Lyrics for Song: The Point Of No Return
Lyrics for Album: Revolutionary Vol. 2 [2004]
[Talking]
Yeah...It's that real this time around,
Immortal Technique...Revolutionary Vol. 2,
It's on now motherfucker...
Lock and load!
[Verse 1]
This is the point of no return I could never go back
Life without parole up-state shackled and trapped
Living in the hole, looking at the world through a crack
But fuck that, I'd rather shoot it out and get clapped
I've gone too far, there ain't no coming back for me
Auschwitz gas chamber full of Zyklon-B
Just like the Spanish exterminating Tainos
Raping the black and Indian women, creating Latinos
Motherfuckers made me out of self-righteous hatred
And you got yourself a virus, stuck in The Matrix
A suicide bomber strapped and ready to blow
Lethal injection strapped down ready to go
Don't you understand they'll never let me live out in peace?
Concrete jungle, guerrilla war out in the streets
Nat Turner with the sickle, pitchfork and machete
The end of the world, motherfucker, you not ready
This is the point of no return and nobody can stop it
Malcolm Little when he knelt before Elijah Muhammad
The comet that killed the dinosaurs, changing the Earth
They love to criticize, they always say I changed for the worse
Like prescription pills when you misusing them, nigga
The Templar Knights when they took Jerusalem, nigga
And figured out what was buried under Solomon's Temple
Al Aqsa; the name is not coincidental
I know too much to government is trying to murder me
No coming back like cutting your wrists open vertically
How could the serpent be purposely put in charge of the country?
Genetic engineered sickness spread amongst me
My people are so hungry that they attack without reason
Like a fucking dog ripping off the hand that feeds him
Immortal Technique is treason to The Patriot Act
So come and get me motherfucker because I'm not coming back
[Chorus]
This is the point from which I could never return
And if I back down now then forever I'll burn
This is the point from which I could never retreat
Because If I turn back now there can never be peace
This is the point from which I will die and succeed
Living the struggle, I know I'm alive when I bleed
From now on it can never be the same as before
Because the place I'm from doesn't exist anymore
[Verse 2]
This is the point of no return nigga, you better believe this
Mary Magdalen giving birth to the children of Jesus
The evolution of the world: bloody and dramatic
Human beings killing monkeys to conquer the planet
The kingdoms of Africa and Mesopotamia
Machine gunning your body with depleted uranium
This is the age of microchips and titanium
The dark side of the moon and contact with aliens
I started out like Australians: criminal-minded
Broke into Hell, tore it down, and built and city behind it
South Paul, murderous, methodology, nigga
Remember that I'm just a man, don't follow me, nigga
Because once you're past the point you can never go home
You've got to face the possibility of dying alone
So tell me motherfucker, how could you die for the throne
When you don't even got the fucking heart to die for your own?
It rains acid, one day the Earth will cry from a stone
And you'll be looking at the world living inside of a dome
Computerized humanity living inside of a clone
This is the place where the unknown is living and real
Wormwood, to Planet X and The Seventh Seal
Universal truth is not measured in mass appeal
This is the last time that I kneel and pray to the sky
Because almost everything that I was always ever told was a lie
[Chorus]
This is the point from which I could never return
And if I back down now then forever I'll burn
This is the point from which I could never retreat
Cause If I turn back now there can never be peace
This is the point from which I will die and succeed
Living the struggle, I know I'm alive when I bleed
From now on it can never be the same as before
Cause the place I'm from doesn't exist anymore
