[00:06.29] Seems to me like they want us to be afraid, man
[00:10.54] Or maybe we just like being afraid
[00:13.23] Maybe we just so used to it at this point that it's just a part of us
[00:16.91] Part of our culture
[00:19.60] Security alert on orange
[00:21.98] It's been on orange since '01 G,
[00:23.98] I mean what's up man
[00:24.97] Can't a brother get yellow man
[00:25.66] Just for like two months or something
[00:28.16] God damn
[00:28.98]
[00:30.66] Sick o' that
[00:32.35] Mic check
[00:33.73] The groove is dead so I'm a rhyme like a lunatic
[00:36.16] I do this shit with an unassuming wit
[00:38.73] The corporation conjured up the bass and the tempo
[00:41.10] My name is Liff, that's the intro, now let's go
[00:43.97] The flow of life throwing strife into the mix
[00:46.42] The big dark condition and the word is sick
[00:48.85] The powers that be
[00:49.85] A power in me
[00:50.85] To speak a cause
[00:51.66] Stress and strife that I see every day
[00:53.38] And more to speak upon
[00:54.63] Culture of fear
[00:55.44] It's up in your ear
[00:56.37] They're telling us terrorists about to strike
[00:57.94] May be tonight
[00:59.24] Right
[01:00.50] Let me just back up slowly
[01:01.94] With critical analysis of those who control me
[01:04.56] It used to be we just had a screen in the crib
[01:06.94] On the TV
[01:07.81] But now we carry screens when we leave see
[01:10.00] Laptops smart phones now we're never alone
[01:12.25] A new affliction I call it media dome
[01:14.25] But on the road famine is the programming
[01:17.18] You want to watch a favorite show because it's so slamming
[01:19.75] Hold hands and let's gaze into the beautiful glare
[01:22.38] While we're here so immersed in this culture of fear
[01:24.69]
[02:04.74] We fear the IRS, fear the INS
[02:06.31] Fear God
[02:06.75] I'm more afraid of the planet than the terror squad
[02:08.99] Weapons overseas
[02:10.12] Mastercard and visa want to buy me the greed
[02:12.06] They deceive
[02:14.80] The enemy is in the fine print
[02:16.79] They assassinate sally
[02:17.55] With no sense of the selling
[02:19.23] Represent an element ahead
[02:21.10]
[02:27.37] A sentiment that you feel on the road for real
[02:29.62] The deal starts with a spark concludes with a hand shake
[02:32.24] Physical to alter the subliminal landscape
[02:34.87] Relief thinking I can really trust that guy
[02:37.18] To be honest could have should have really punched that guy
[02:39.81] Now it's operation shank a banker
[02:41.37] Thank you for the loan
[02:42.93] See you when you come to repossess my home
[02:45.18] Alone at night sweating with visions of Armageddon
[02:47.68] I never seen the threat
[02:48.81] Yet I feel threatened
[02:50.24] Parts of our society designed to smear
[02:52.68] Freedom don't succumb to this culture of fear
[02:56.12]
[02:57.19] Fear fear fear
[02:59.43] Don't succumb to this culture of fear
[03:00.74] Fear fear fear
[03:03.63] Don't succumb to this culture of fear
