The Point of No Return

Point of No Return-Immortal Technique

This is the point of no return I could never go back

Life without parole, up state shackled and trapped

Living in the hole, lookin' 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 Tynos

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 pitch fork 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 change for the worse

Like prescription pills when you miss-using them nigga

The Templar Knights when they took Jerusalem nigga

And figured out what was buried under Soloman's Temple

Al Aqsa the name is not coincidental

I know too much, the government is trying to murder me

No coming back like cutting your wrist open vertically

How could a 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 fuckin' dog ripping off the hand that feeds him

Immortal Technique is treason to the patriot act

So come and get me motherfucker cause I'm not coming back

[Hook]
This is the point from which I could never return

And if I back down now then forever I 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



This is the point of no return nigga you better believe this

Mary Magdalene 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 gunnin' your body with depleted uranium

This is the age of micro chips 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 a city behind it

South Paul, murderous, methodology nigga

Remember that I'm just a man don't follow me nigga

Cause once you 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 fuckin' heart to die for your own

It rains acid, one day the earth will cry from a stone

And you'll be lookin' at the world livin' inside of a dome

Computerized humanity living inside of a clone

This is the place where the unknown is living and real

Worm went to planet X and the seventh seal

Universal truth is not measure in mass appeal

This is the last time that I kneel and pray to the sky

Cause almost everything that I was always ever told was a lie

[Hook]
This is the point from which I could never return

And if I back down now then forever I 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
