Everybody knows that they're guilty
|
Everybody knows that they've lied
|
Everybody knows that they're guilty
|
Resting on their conscience eating their inside
|
It's freedom, I said it's freedom time now
|
It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
|
Time to get free, or give your selves up now
|
It's freedom, said it's free time yo
|
|
There's a war in the mind over territory, for the dominium
|
Who will dominate the opinions?
|
Schisms and isms, keeping us in forms of religion
|
Conforming our vision to the world church of decision
|
Trapped in a section, submitted to committing election
|
Moral affection, epidemic lies and deception
|
Insurrection, of the highest possible order
|
Distorting our tape recorders from hearin' it like underwater
|
Beyond the borders, find the sin in disorder
|
Bound by the strategy of a systemic depravity
|
Heavy as gravity, head first in the cavity without a bottom
|
A fate, worst then Sodom,
|
What's got멷m drunk of the spirit?
|
Truth comes we can't hear it when you've been programmed to fear it
|
I had a vision I was falling in indecision
|
Appalling, calling religious a program on television
|
How can.. dominate wisdom
|
Be recognized in the system
|
Of antichrists'? the majority rules
|
Intelligent fools
|
P.H.D.'s in illusion, masters of mass confusion
|
Bachelors of past illusion
|
Now who u choosing?
|
The head or the tail?
|
The bloodshed of the male or confidence in the veil?
|
Conferences at Yale discussing doctrines of bail
|
Causing peoples to fail keeping a third in jail
|
His words nailed everything to the tree
|
Severing all of me from all that I use to be
|
Formless and void, totally paranoid
|
Enjoyed darkness's, Lord keeping me from the sword
|
Blocked from mercy, bitterness serves thee
|
Hungry and thirsty for good meat we would eat
|
And still dine at the table of deceit
|
How incomplete, from confrontation to retreat
|
We belong in true enemies defeat
|
Destitute a necessity
|
Causing desperation to get the best of me
|
Punishment till there was nothing left of me
|
Realizing the inescapable death of me
|
No option to the valley of decision
|
The only doctrine is supernatural circumcision
|
Inwardly, only water can purge the heart from words to fiery darts
|
Thrown by the workers of thee arts
|
Inequity, shaping in
|
There's no escaping when
|
Your whole philosophy is paper thin
|
In vanity, the wide road is insanity
|
Could it be all of humanity?
|
Picture that, scripture that
|
The origin of a mans heart is black
|
How can we show up, for an invisible war?
|
Preoccupied with a shadow, making love with a whore?
|
Aching in sores
|
Babylon the great mystery
|
Mother of human history system of social sorcery
|
Our present condition needs serious recognition
|
Where there is no repentance can be no admission
|
And that sentence more serious then Vietnam
|
The atom bomb and Sadam administer Farrakhan
|
What's going on?
|
What's a priority to you?
|
By what authority do we do the majority hasn't a clue
|
We majored in curses searched the chapters check the verses
|
Recapture the land and remove the mark from off our hand
|
So we can stand in agreement with his command
|
Everything else is damned let them with ears understand!
|
{Heh} everything else is damned let them with ears understand
|
|
It's freedom, said its freedom time now
|
It's freedom, said its freedom time now
|
It's freedom, I'ma be who I'm am
|
It's freedom time, said its freedom time
|
Everybody knows that they've lied
|
Everybody knows they've perpetrated inside
|
Everybody knows that their guilty as
|
Resting on their conscious eating their insides
|
Get free, be who your suppose to be
|
Freedom, said its freedom time now
|
Freedom, said it's freedom time
|
Freedom, freedom time
|
|
