เพลง Freedom Time (Live)

War In The Mind - Lauryn Hill

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 got‹Æ 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'm a 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
