[00:07.755] Everybody knows that they guilty
[00:13.844] Everybody knows that they've lied
[00:19.990] Everybody knows that they guilty
[00:26.072] Resting on their conscience eating their inside
[00:31.209] It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
[00:36.811] It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
[00:42.541] Time to get free, or give yourselves up now
[00:48.356] It's freedom, said it's freedom time
[00:51.879] Yo, there's a war in the mind, over territory
[00:54.622] For the dominion
[00:55.802] Who will dominate the opinion
[00:57.064] Skisms and isms, keepin' us in forms of religion
[00:59.749] Conformin' our vision

[01:03.589] Submitted to committing election
[01:04.584] Moral infection
[01:05.978] Epidemic lies and deception
[01:07.379] Insurrection
[01:08.466] Of the highest possible order
[01:09.851] Destortin' our tape recorders
[01:11.097] From hearin' like under water
[01:12.561] Beyond the borders
[01:13.830] Find the sin in disorder
[01:15.068] Bound by the strategy
[01:16.245] A systematic deprivaty
[01:17.565] Heavy as gravity
[01:18.935] Head first in the cavity
[01:20.046] Without a bottom
[01:21.117] A fate, worse than Sodom
[01:22.980] What's got 'em, drunk off the spirits
[01:24.645] Truth comes, we can't hear it
[01:26.205] When you've been, programmed to fear it
[01:27.971] I had a vision I was fallin' in indescision
[01:30.136] Apallin', callin' religious
[01:31.742] Some program on television
[01:32.774] How can, dominant wisdom
[01:34.280] Be recognized in the system
[01:35.842] Of Anti-Christ, the majority rules
[01:37.956] Intelligent fools
[01:39.418] PhD's in illusion
[01:40.566] Masters of massconfusion
[01:41.859] Bachelors in past illusion
[01:43.551] Now who you choosin'
[01:44.756] The head, the tail

[01:48.683] Conference is in Yale
[01:49.676] Discussin' doctrines of bail
[01:51.141] Causin' people to fail
[01:52.351] Keepin' the third in jail
[01:53.916] His word is nail
[01:54.926] Everything to the tree
[01:56.427] Severing all of me
[01:57.528] From all that I used to be
[01:58.981] Formless and void
[02:00.345] Totally paranoid
[02:01.665] Enjoy darkness as Lord
[02:02.948] Keepin' me from the sword
[02:04.312] Block for mercy
[02:05.621] Bitter than cerasee
[02:06.966] Hungry and thirsty
[02:07.900] For good meat we would eat
[02:09.306] And still, dined at the table of deceit
[02:11.242] How incomplete
[02:12.798] From confrontation to retreat
[02:14.752] We belong, the true enemies defeat
[02:16.991] Destitute a necessity
[02:19.041] Causin' desperation to get the best of me
[02:22.087] Punishment 'til there was nothing left of me
[02:24.645] Realizin' the inescapable death of me
[02:27.019] No options in the valley of decision
[02:29.235] The only doctrine, supernatural circumcision
[02:32.093] Inwardly, only water can purge the heart
[02:34.158] From words to fiery darts
[02:35.784] Thrown by the workers of the arts
[02:37.632] Iniquity, shapen in
[02:39.477] There's no escapin' when
[02:41.024] Your whole philosophy is paper thin
[02:43.384] In vanity
[02:44.621] The wide road is insanity
[02:46.409] Could it be all of humanity
[02:48.788] Picture that
[02:49.924] Scripture that
[02:51.311] The origin of a man's heart is black
[02:53.406] How can we show up for
[02:55.073] An invisible war
[02:56.593] Preoccupied with a shadow, makin' love with a whore
[02:59.098] Achin' in sores
[03:00.193] Babylon, the great mystery

[03:05.420] Needs serious recognition
[03:06.941] Where there's no repentance there can be no remission
[03:09.343] And that sentence, more serious than Vietnam
[03:11.904] The atom bomb is Saddam and Minister Farakkkhan
[03:14.606] What's goin' on, what's the priority to you
[03:16.825] What authority do we do
[03:18.678] When the majority hasn't a clue
[03:19.944] We majored in curses
[03:21.087] Search the chapters, check the verses
[03:22.408] Recapture the land
[03:23.566] Remove the mark from off of our hands
[03:24.867] So we can stand
[03:26.269] In agreement with his command
[03:27.674] Everything else is damned
[03:28.949] Let them with ears understand
[03:33.561] Everything else is damned, let them with ears understand
[03:38.213] It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
[03:42.694] It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
[03:47.866] It's freedom, I'ma be who I am
[03:52.671] It's freedom time, said it's freedom time
[03:59.294] Everybody knows that they've lied
[04:04.199] Everybody knows that they've perpetrated inside
[04:10.132] Everybody knows that they guilty, yes
[04:15.511] Resting on their conscience eating their insides
[04:19.964] Get free, be who you're suppost to be
[04:25.427] Freedom, said it's freedom time now
[04:30.597] Freedom, said it's freedom time
[04:35.644] Freedom, freedom time now
