Immortal Technique - Toast to the Dead w/ lyrics HD

[@joshuamalone8437]

What makes a good rapper 1. Emotion 2. Good Meaningful lyrics 3. Music that gets you inspired 4. Good Story telling and Tech has all.

[@zachjames9631]

Flow, bars and production value...

[@OfficialExcelDesignsED]

And flow!

Joshua Malone don't forget a good beat to the song

[@djsundu99]

Still coming back to this classic 14 years later

[@themainakid]

It’s difficult to find any music nowadays that has even a fraction of the meaning that this song holds. Immortal Technique is truly a lyrical genius

[@karaclark5204]

Some of you won't survive the changes that the earth makes, swallowed by tsunamis hurricanes and earthquakes; and that's just the first stage if we cannot reverse ways and realize WE ARE ONE regardless of our birthplace. --Immortaltechnique

My brother Immortal Technique, you can't imagine, how much i love your music. In some very dark moments, left alone in the dark with my demons in the past, before i killed 'em all, you helped me with your music, to get the Power to get on my feet back again. May God The Almighty bless you for that. 🙏❤☝

[@mixmaster6827]

71trae.stoner I not so sure its gonna be soon. Tech has explained how it takes him a while to write songs (since he actually has to write a meaningful song and not garbage) and considering he released the martyr last year its probably gonna be either middle to late 2016 or early 2017

[@MikkoMurmeli]

Thanks Tec... this is motivational. Remember folks, you got good in you, because you were born of the same stuff god is made of, we all were. To the micro-organisms that live in us, we may be like gods, just like to the universal consciousness or god we are mere specks of micro-life in one. Still, while miniscule, we too serve a purpose, just like the micro-organisms in us do. Remember that.

[@akankshabaadkar1234]

This is such an important, beautiful song. Technique is something else. Something the world needs. Speaking through hip hop like THAT?! Ingenious

[@trueshockgaming329]

Luke Brown read the godamn description....

[@RedemptiveIRage]

The line "I'll never let an idea die with a man," should be "I'll never let an Eyedea die with a man," as an obvious reference to Eyedea who Tech battled in 2000. Eyedea died in early 2010.
