Poison Pen - The 2nd Amendment Ft. Immortal Technique:hunter:

[Poison Pen – Talking]

Yo, this Poison Pen,
The album, its called ‘The Money Shot’,

[Immortal Technique – Talking]

Most of yall muthafuckaz,
Yall ‘Don’t even know what your rights are,
You think your rights the opposite of your left (ahaha)
We have these rights, guaranteed to us,
(Poison Pen – You aint taking my burner nigga)
And once they get revoked...
(you gotta cut my finger off nigga)
Bueno es hora de revolución muthafucka!

[Immortal Technique – Verse 1]

I keep a burner stashed,
Loaded up with hollow tips,
Cause’ politics can turn your city into the Gaza Strip,
Military industry, justify sales like a drug dealer lyrically,
Fucked up physically,
But halving two sides doesn’t imply symmetry,
Cause’ Philly to Filastin, our children are fricassee,
Times up, like the Celestine prophecy,
My paper is folded now, no more chances to copy me,
Them ghetto philosophies will get yourself killed,
If i don’t sell them the product “somebody else will”
America, like it or not, i represent you,
You teach me and sell me the weapons to use against you,
My stray hands used to sack cities for New York bitch,
Now im Alaric, Gaiseric, four seventy six,
Smart muthafuckaz from the hood learn history,
Stupid niggaz never learn shit and die religiously!

[Hook - Pen & Tech]

Rebel Armz Locked and Loaded,
The only law once the government is corroded,
(2nd Amendment)
My life might be intense,
But my rights will not be infringed.
(2nd Amendment)
Is it propaganda for weapon companies,
Or necessity in the country we see,
(2nd Amendment)
Yeah, know this ___________
Not for whilin’ just for checks and balance.
(2nd Amendment)

[Poison Pen – Verse 1]

I walk around town with the pound strapped down on my side,
No frontin’ just incase i gotta smoke somethin’
Sa gloves just incase i gotta choke somethin’
Hawk out just incase i gotta poke somethin’
Dirty dirty just incase i gotta go huntin’
Open case in the city, i don’t know nothin’
Random macs (no) you wanna play my circle?
My pedigree is made to _____ you
But we’ll hurt you!

[Immortal Technique – Verse 2]

Reverse AIDS commercial,
Death equals silence,
Anarchist, El Violen, reactionary violent,
Cursed music out of a red violin,
Only republicans i fuck with live in Northern Ireland,
Warrior chief liken the beast from the east,
Drive-by in the drive-thru, we share beef with police,
One for the Bronx, for Queens, for them Oakland streets,
Fuckin’ empty the clip in em’ for my peoples in Greece,
Nigga!

[Hook - Pen & Tech]

[Poison Pen – Verse 2]

Mr Obama, congratulations on that win,
Don't take away my right to hold my ___,
I’m a citizen, like that dude in that militia,
No felonies, unlike that dude in that militia,
Antebellum statues paved the way for me,
It’s registered with the state dawg,
Its day of the siege.
Police wont protect me, the beast wont protect me,
I stand back to back with the gats with Technique,
We called ‘Rebel Armz’ for a reason,
I defend hoods with heaterz,
Like Condoleeza’s pops,
Pack off, Pop off, on them evil cops,
Torch yours, i torch mine,
That's when the bleeding stop.
Tryna’ confiscate mine,
So you can catch and drive my grey piece,
I’m Haiti in the seventy nineties (Sak Pasé)
Control em’, border,
The government sponsored slaughter,
We surrounded,
____ revolution, how this land was founded.

[Hook - Pen & Tech]

[Immortal Technique – Talking]

Yeah, Immortal Technique, Poison Pen
Stronghold / Rebel Armz
Hahaha,
You gotta know your rights pussy,
So that, when they break the law on you,
You know how to break the law on them.
Hahaaha...

Immortal Technique references:

"Celestine Prophecy"

The Celestine Prophecy is a 1993 novel by James Redfield that discusses various psychological and spiritual ideas which are rooted in many ancient Eastern Traditions and New Age Spirituality. The main character of the novel undertakes a journey to find and understand a series of nine spiritual insights on an ancient manuscript in Peru. The book is a first-person narrative of the narrator's spiritual awakening as he goes through a transitional period of his life.

"Alaric"

Alaric I (Alareiks in the original Gothic; Alarik or Alarich in modern Germanic languages; Alaricus in Latin; and Alarico in Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish), was likely born about 370 on an island named Peuce (the Fir) at the mouth of the Danube. He was king of the Visigoths from 395–410 and the first Germanic leader to take the city of Rome. Having originally desired to settle his people in the Roman Empire, he finally sacked the city, marking the decline of imperial power in the west.

Alaric, whose name means literally "king of all" was well-born, his father kindred to the Balti, a tribe competing with the Amali among Gothic fighters. He belonged to the western Gothic branch, the Visigoths.

"Gaiseric" & "four seventy six/476"

Genseric (c. 389 – January 25, 477), also spelled as Gaiseric or Geiseric, was the King of the Vandals and Alans (428–477) and was one of the key players in the troubles of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century. During his nearly 50 years of rule, he raised a relatively insignificant Germanic tribe to the status of a major Mediterranean power — which, after he died, entered a swift decline and eventual collapse.

Gaiseric, whose name means "spear-king", was an illegitimate son of King Godigisel; he is assumed to have been born near Lake Balaton (Hungary) around 389. After his father's death, Gaiseric was the second most powerful man among the Vandals, after the new king, his half-brother Gunderic.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiseric

In 455, he used the death of the western Emperor Valentinian III as a pretext to attack the undefended city of Rome itself, which his warriors pillaged for fourteen days. He took the later Emperor's widow, Eudoxia and her two daughters hostage, treating them as slaves. From here he went on to lay waste to Dalmatia and Greece. Eventually, the eastern Emperor Zeno was forced to recognise Gaiseric and made peace with him in 476, just a year before the king's death.

El Violen

I'm not even sure if he pronounces the "El" but i came across a film and im sure it must be what hes trying to say.

El Violin - Mexican director Francisco Vargas Quevedo presents the story of Don Plutarco, an elderly farmer and violinist; the aged patriarch of a musical family who has fashioned an ingenious way of smuggling ammunition beneath the noses of government troops. Shot simply and starkly in Black & White this mood-driven character exploration of familial love, duty, conflict and innocence is set in rural Mexico during the peasant revolts of the 1970s. El Violin is a captivating and beautifully presented tale with a strong sense of social justice.
