I once knew a nigga whose real name was William
His primary concern was makin' a million
Bein' the illest hustler that the world ever seen
He used to fuck movie stars and sniff coke in his dreams
A corrupted young mind at the age of 13
Nigga never had a father and his mom was a fiend
She put the pipe down, but for every year she was sober
Her son's heart simultaneously grew colder
He started hangin' out, sellin' bags in the projects
Checkin' the young chicks, lookin' for hit-and-run prospects
He was fascinated by material objects
But he understood money never bought respect
He built a reputation, 'cause he could hustle and steal
But got locked once and didn't hesitate to squeal
So criminals he chilled with didn't think he was real
You see, me and niggas like this have never been equal
I don't project my insecurities on other people
He fiended for props like addicts with pipes and needles
So he felt he had to prove to everyone he was evil
A feeble-minded young man with infinite potential
The product of a ghetto-bred capitalistic mental
Coincidentally dropped out of school to sell weed
Dancin' with the Devil, smoked until his eyes would bleed
But he was sick of sellin' trees and gave in to his greed
[Hook]
Everyone tryin' to be trife never face the consequences
You probably only did a month for minor offenses
Ask a nigga doin' life if he had another chance
But then again, there's always the wicked that knew in advance
Dance forever with the Devil on a cold cell block
But that's what happens when you rape, murder, and sell rock
Devils used to be God's angels that fell from the top
There's no diversity because we're burnin' in the melting pot
[Verse 2]
So Billy started robbin' niggas, anything he could do
To get his respect back in the eyes of his crew
Startin' fights over little shit up on the block
Stepped up to sellin' mothers and brothers the crack rock
Workin' overtime for makin' money for the crack spot
Hit the jackpot, and wanted to move up to cocaine
Fulfillin' the Scarface fantasy stuck in his brain
Tired of the block niggas treatin' him the same
He wanted to be major like the cut throats and the thugs
But when he tried to step to 'em, niggas showed him no love
They told him any motherfuckin' coward can sell drugs
Any bitch nigga with a gun can bust slugs
Any nigga with a red shirt can front like a Blood
Even Puffy smoked a motherfucker up in the club
But only a real thug can stab someone 'til they die
Standin' in front of them, starin' straight into their eyes
Billy realized that these men were well-guarded
And they wanted to test him before business started
Suggested rapin' a bitch to prove he was cold-hearted
So now he had a choice between goin' back to his life
Or makin' money with made men up in the cyph'
His dreams about cars and ice made him agree
A hardcore nigga is all he ever wanted to be
And so he met them Friday night at a quarter to three
[Hook]
Everyone tryin' to be trife never face the consequences
You probably only did a month for minor offenses
Ask a nigga doin' life if he had another chance
But then again, there's always the wicked that knew in advance
Dance forever with the Devil on a cold cell block
But that's what happens when you rape, murder, and sell rock
Devils used to be God's angels that fell from the top
There's no diversity because we're burnin' in the melting pot
[Verse 3]
They drove around the projects slow while it was rainin'
Smokin' blunts, drinkin' and jokin' for entertainment
Until they saw a woman on the street, walkin' alone
Three in the mornin', comin' back from work, on her way home
And so they quietly got out the car and followed her
Walkin' through the projects, the darkness swallowed her
They wrapped her shirt around her head
And knocked her onto the floor
This is it, kid, now you got your chance to be raw
So Billy yoked her up and grabbed the chick by the hair
And dragged her into a lobby that had nobody there
She struggled hard, but they forced her to go up the stairs
They got to the roof and then held her down on the ground
Screamin', "Shut the fuck up, and stop movin' around!"
The shirt covered her face, but she screamed and clawed
So Billy stomped on the bitch until he'd broken her jaw
The dirty bastards knew exactly what they were doin'
They kicked her until they cracked her ribs and she stopped movin'
Blood leakin' through the cloth, she cried silently
And then they all proceeded to rape her violently
Billy was made to go first, but each of them took a turn
Rippin' her up and chokin' her until her throat burned
Her broken jaw mumbled for God, but they weren't concerned
When they were done and she was lyin'
Bloody, broken and bruised
One of them niggas pulled out a brand new .22
They told him that she was a witness of what she'd gone through
And if he killed her, he was guaranteed a spot in the crew
He thought about it for a minute, she was practically dead
And so he leaned over and put the gun right to her head
[Sample]
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
I'm fallin' and I can't turn back
[Verse 4]
Right before he pulled the trigger and ended her life
He thought about the cocaine with the platinum and ice
And he felt strong standin' along with his new brothers
Cocked the gat to her head and pulled back the shirt cover
But what he saw made him start to cringe and stutter
Cause he was starin' into the eyes of his own mother
She looked back at him and cried 'cause he had forsaken her
She cried more painfully than when they were rapin' her
His whole world stopped, he couldn't even contemplate
His corruption had successfully changed his fate
And he remembered how his mom used to come home late
Workin' hard for nothin', because now what was he worth?
He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth
And cryin' out to the sky, 'cause he was lonely and scared
But only the Devil responded, 'cause God wasn't there
And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold
And so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul
They say death takes you to a better place, but I doubt it
After that, they killed his mother, and never spoke about it
And listen, 'cause the story that I'm tellin' is true
Cause I was there with Billy Jacobs, and I raped his mom too
And now the Devil follows me everywhere that I go
In fact, I'm sure he's standin' among one of you at my shows
And every street cypher, listenin' to little thugs flow
He could be standin' right next to you, and you wouldn't know
The Devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked
White, brown, yellow and black — color is not restricted
You have a self-destructive destiny when you're inflicted
And you'll be one of God's children that fell from the top
There's no diversity because we're burnin' in the melting pot
So when the Devil wants to dance with you, you better say never
Because a dance with the Devil might last you forever
[Part II: "I"]
[Intro: Immortal Technique]
Oh, y'all motherfuckers thought it was over, huh?
Well, it’s not, you didn’t count on a fallen angel gettin' back
Into the grace of God and comin' after you
Y’all niggas ain’t shit, your producers ain’t shit
Your fuckin' A & R ain’t shit
I’ll fuckin' wipe my ass with your demo deal
Yo, Diabolic, take this motherfucker’s head off!
[Verse 1: Diabolic]
Go ‘head and grip Glocks
I’ll snap your trigger finger in six spots
You’ll have to lip lock with hypodermic needles to lick shots
I’ll watch you topple flat
Put away your rings and holla back
Can’t freestyle; you’re screwed off the top, like bottle caps
Beneath the surface
I’m overheatin' your receiving circuits
By unleashin' deeper verses than priests speak in churches
What you preach is worthless
Your worship defeat the purpose
Like President Bush takin' bullets for the secret service
Beyond what y'all fathom, I shit on cats and jaw tap 'em
Show no compassion, like havin' a straight-faced orgasm
Tour jack 'em, have his half-a-10 bitch suck my friend’s dick
In the meantime, you can french kiss this clenched fist
Diabolic: a one-man brigade spreadin' cancer plague
Fist-fuckin’ a pussy’s face, holdin' a hand grenade
So if I catch you bluffin', faggot, you’re less than nothin'
I just had to get that stress off my chest like breast reduction
[Verse 2: Immortal Technique]
You motherfuckers are nothin', you cannot harm me
I’ll resurrect every aborted baby and start an army
Storm the planet, huntin' you down, 'cause I’m on a mission
To split your body into a billion one-celled organisms
Immortal Technique’ll destroy your religion, you stupid bitch
You’re faker than blue-eyed crackers nailed to a crucifix
I’m 'bout to blow up, like NASA Challenger computer chips
Arsenic language transmitted revolutionarily
I’m like time itself: I’m gonna kill you inevitably
Chemically bomb you, fuck usin’ a chrome piece
I’m Illmatic, you won’t make it home, like Jerome’s niece
I’ll sever your head diagonally for thinkin' of dissin' me
And then use your dead body to write my name in calligraphy
This puppet democracy brain-washed your psychology
So you’re nothin', like diversity without equality
And your crew is full of more faggots than Greek mythology
Usin' numerology to count the people I sent to Heaven
Produces more digits than 22 divided by seven
You’re like Kevin Spacey: your style is usually suspect
You never killed a cop, you, not a motherfuckin' thug yet
Your mind is empty and spacious
Like the part of the brain that appreciates culture in a racist
Face it, you’re too basic, you’re never gonna make it
Like children walkin' through Antarctica, butt-naked
Raz som poznal nigga, ktorého skutočné meno bolo William
Jeho hlavným záujmom bolo Makin 'milión
Bein
Kedysi šukal filmové hviezdy a čuchal koks vo svojich snoch
Poškodená mladá myseľ vo veku 13 rokov
Nigga nikdy nemal otca a jeho mama bola diabol
Položila potrubie, ale pre každý rok bola triezvy
Srdce jej syna sa súčasne ochladilo
Začal visieť, predáva vrecká v projektoch
Checkin 'The Young Chicks, hľadať vyhliadky na hit-and-run
Bol fascinovaný materiálnymi predmetmi
Ale pochopil peniaze, ktoré nikdy nekúpili rešpekt
Vybudoval reputáciu, pretože mohol zhonovať a ukradnúť
Ale raz bol zamknutý a neváhal kňučať
Takže zločinci, s ktorými chladil, si nemyslel, že je skutočný
Vidíš, ja a niggas, ako je tento, nikdy neboli rovnaké
Nevymieňam svoje neistoty na iných ľuďoch
Diahový diabol pre rekvizity ako závislí s rúrkami a ihlami
Tak cítil, že musí každému dokázať, že bol zlý
Slabý mladý muž s nekonečným potenciálom
Produkt geta chovaného kapitalistického mentálu
Zhodou okolností vypadol zo školy, aby predal burinu
Dancin 's diablom, fajčil, až kým mu jeho oči nevykrvácajú
Ale bol chorý zo predaja stromov a vzdal sa svojej chamtivosti
[Háčik]
Každý sa snaží byť TRIFE nikdy čeliť následkom
Pravdepodobne ste urobili iba mesiac pre menšie trestné činy
Opýtajte sa nigga do života, či mal inú šancu
Ale znova, vždy je tu bezbožná, ktorá to vedela vopred
Tancujte navždy s diablom na bloku studenej bunky
Ale to sa stane, keď znásilníte, vraždu a predávate Rock
Devils boli Božie anjeli, ktorí spadli zhora
Neexistuje žiadna rozmanitosť, pretože v tavnom hrnci horiame
[Verš 2]
Takže Billy začal Robbin 'Niggas, všetko, čo mohol urobiť
Aby sa jeho úcta vrátil do očí jeho posádky
Začnite bojovať o malé sračky na bloku
Vstúpil na predaj matiek a bratov Crack Rock
Pracujte nadčas pre Makin 'Peniaze na crack Spot
Zasiahnite jackpot a chcel sa presunúť na kokaín
Naplniť Scarface Fantasy uviaznutá v jeho mozgu
Unavený z bloku niggas mu zaobchádza rovnako
Chcel byť hlavnými ako strihané hrdla a kriminálnici
Ale keď sa pokúsil vstúpiť do nich, Niggas mu nepreukázal lásku
Povedali mu, že akýkoľvek matkin 'zbabelec môže predávať drogy
Akákoľvek fena nigga so zbraňou môže zavrieť slimáky
Akákoľvek nigga s červenou košeľou môže byť vpredu ako krv
Dokonca aj nafúknuté fajčili matku v klube
Ale iba skutočný kriminálnik môže niekoho bodnúť, kým nezomrú
Stojí pred nimi, hviezda priamo do ich očí
Billy si uvedomil, že títo muži boli dobre strážení
A chceli ho otestovať skôr, ako začalo podnikanie
Navrhla rapin 'fena, aby dokázala, že bol chladný
Takže teraz mal na výber, aby sa vrátil späť do svojho života
Alebo makin 'peniaze s Made Men v Cyph'
Jeho sny o autách a ľade ho donútili súhlasiť
Hardcore nigga je všetko, čo kedy chcel byť
A tak sa s nimi stretol v piatok večer o štvrtinu až tri
[Háčik]
Každý sa snaží byť TRIFE nikdy čeliť následkom
Pravdepodobne ste urobili iba mesiac pre menšie trestné činy
Opýtajte sa nigga do života, či mal inú šancu
Ale znova, vždy je tu bezbožná, ktorá to vedela vopred
Tancujte navždy s diablom na bloku studenej bunky
Ale to sa stane, keď znásilníte, vraždu a predávate Rock
Devils boli Božie anjeli, ktorí spadli zhora
Neexistuje žiadna rozmanitosť, pretože v tavnom hrnci horiame
[Verš 3]
Jazdili okolo projektov pomaly, zatiaľ čo pršalo
Smokin 'Blunts, Pityin' a Jokin 'pre zábavu
Kým nevideli ženu na ulici, choďte sám
Tri ráno, comin 'späť z práce, na ceste domov
A tak ticho vystúpili z auta a nasledovali ju
Prechádzka cez projekty, tma ju prehltla
Omotali jej košeľu okolo hlavy
A zrazil ju na podlahu
To je všetko, chlapče, teraz máš šancu byť surová
Takže ju Billy vytiahol a chytil kuriatko za vlasy
A vtiahla ju do haly, ktorá tam nikoho nemala
Tvrdo bojovala, ale prinútili ju ísť hore po schodoch
Dostali sa na strechu a potom ju držali na zemi
Screamin ', "Stav kurva hore a prestaň sa pohybovať!"
Košeľa jej zakryla tvár, ale kričala a pazúrila
Takže Billy dupal na mrchu, kým jej nezlomil čeľusť
Špinaví bastardi presne vedeli, čo robia
Kopali ju, až kým jej popraskali rebrá a ona sa prestala pohybovať
Krv unikne cez handričku, potichu plakala
A potom všetci ju násilne znásilnili
Billy bol nútený ísť na prvé miesto, ale každý z nich sa zmenil
Rippin 'ju hore a chokin
Jej zlomená čeľusť zamumlala pre Boha, ale neboli znepokojení
Keď boli hotové a ona bola lyin '
Krvavé, rozbité a pomliaždené
Jeden z nich Niggas vytiahol úplne nový 0,22
Povedali mu, že je svedkom toho, čo prešla
A ak ju zabil, bolo mu zaručené miesto v posádke
Na chvíľu o tom premýšľal, bola prakticky mŕtva
A tak sa naklonil a položil zbraň priamo k jej hlave
[Vzorka]
Padám a nemôžem sa vrátiť späť
Padám a nemôžem sa vrátiť späť
[Verš 4]
Tesne predtým, ako vytiahol spúšť a ukončil jej život
Premýšľal o kokaíne s platinou a ľadom
A cítil sa silne postavený spolu so svojimi novými bratmi
Naklonil gat do hlavy a stiahol kryt košele
Ale to, čo videl, ho prinútilo začať sa krčiť a koktať
Pretože sa stal hviezdne do očí svojej vlastnej matky
Pozrela sa na neho a plakala, pretože ju opustil
Plakala bolestivejšie, ako keď ju rapinovali
Celý jeho svet sa zastavil, nemohol ani uvažovať
Jeho korupcia úspešne zmenila svoj osud
A spomenul si, ako sa jeho mama vrátila domov neskoro
Pracujte „tvrdo pre nič“, pretože čo teraz stojí za to?
Odvrátil sa od ženy, ktorá mu kedysi porodila
A plač na oblohu, pretože bol osamelý a vystrašený
Ale iba diabol odpovedal, pretože Boh tam nebol
A práve potom vedel, čo to má byť prázdne a studené
A tak vyskočil zo strechy a zomrel bez duše
Hovorí sa, že smrť vás zavedie na lepšie miesto, ale pochybujem o tom
Potom zabili svoju matku a nikdy o tom nehovorili
A počúvaj, „pretože príbeh, ktorý hovorím“, je pravda
Pretože som tam bol s Billy Jacobsom a znásilnil som aj jeho mamu
A teraz ma diabol sleduje všade, kam idem
V skutočnosti som si istý, že na mojich predstaveniach stojí medzi jedným z vás
A každá ulica Cypher, počúvajte prúdy malých násilníkov
Mohol by stáť hneď vedľa vás a vy by ste to nevedeli
Diabol rastie vo vnútri sŕdc sebeckých a bezbožných
Biela, hnedá, žltá a čierna - farba nie je obmedzená
Keď ste spôsobení, máte sebazničujúci osud
A budete jedným z Božieho detí, ktoré spadli zhora
Neexistuje žiadna rozmanitosť, pretože v tavnom hrnci horiame
Takže keď s vami chce diabol tancovať, radšej nikdy povedzte
Pretože tanec s diablom vám môže vydržať navždy
[Časť II: „I“]
[Úvod: nesmrteľná technika]
Och, všetci matkri si mysleli, že to skončilo, hm?
No, nie je, nepočítali ste sa na spadnutí anjela Gettin 'späť
Do milosti Božej a pochádzajú po tebe
Všetci Niggas nie sú sračky, vaši producenti nie sú hovno
Tvoj kurva
Budem šukať, utieram si zadok svojím demo dohodou
Yo, Diabolic, zložte hlavu tohto Matterfuckerovej hlavy!
[Verš 1: Diabolic]
Choďte ‘hlava a uchopte Glocks
Zavrčím váš spúšťací prst na šiestich miestach
Ak chcete olizovať zábery, budete musieť zámok na pery so zámkom na pery
Pozerám sa, ako sa zvrhnem byt
Odložte svoje prstene a Holla späť
Nemôže voľný štýl; Ste zaskrutkovaní z vrchu, ako sú uzávery fľaše
Pod povrchom
Prehrievam vaše prijímajúce okruhy
Uvoľnením hlbších veršov ako kňazi hovoria v kostoloch
To, čo kážeš, je bezcenné
Vaše bohoslužby porazia účel
Rovnako ako prezident Bush Takin 'Bullets for the Secret Service
Okrem toho, čo ste všetci shra, do riti mačky a čeľusť kohúdi
Ukážte žiadny súcit, ako je havin 's priamym orgazmom
Tour Jack
Medzitým môžete francúzsky pobozkať túto zaťatú päsť
Diabolic: Brigáda s jedným mužom šírili moru rakoviny
Fist-Fuckin 'a tvár kundičky, držte ručný granát
Takže ak ťa chytím bluffin ', fagot, si menej ako nič
Len som musel dostať ten stres z hrudi ako redukcia prsníka
[Verš 2: nesmrteľná technika]
Vy, sfúkania, nie ste, nemôžete mi ublížiť
Oživím každé potratené dieťa a založím armádu
Zaútočte na planétu, lovte ti dole, pretože som na misii
Rozdeliť svoje telo na miliardu jednobunkových organizmov
Nesmrteľná technika zničí vaše náboženstvo, ty hlúpa suka
Ste faker ako sušienky s modrookmi pribité na krucifix
Som na vyhodenie do povetria, napríklad počítačové čipy NASA Challenger
Arzénsky jazyk prenášal revolúciu
Som rád sám: Nevyhnutne ťa zabijem
Chemicky bombardujte, kurva usin 'chrómový kúsok
Som ilmatický, neurobíš to domov, ako Jerome's Neter
Rozmačím ti diagonálne hlava, aby som si myslel, že ma dissin '
A potom pomocou svojho mŕtveho tela napíšte moje meno v kaligrafii
Táto bábková demokracia vymyla vašu psychológiu
Takže nič, ako rozmanitosť bez rovnosti
A vaša posádka je plná viac fagotov ako grécka mytológia
Usin 'numerológia na spočítanie ľudí, ktorých som poslal do neba
Produkuje viac číslic ako 22 vydelených sedem
Nikdy si nezabil policajta, ty, ani matkin 'násilník
Vaša myseľ je prázdna a priestranná
Rovnako ako časť mozgu, ktorá oceňuje kultúru v rasistovi
Čeliť tomu, ste príliš základní, nikdy to neurobíš
Rovnako ako deti prechádzajú cez Antarktídu, nahý zadok
