Miss Freedom by Bad Brains Lyrics
Check out the government
Inject the innocent with subliminal
Criminal vibes with the message attainable
Station to station
Tellin' lies to a nation
Addressed by the president yo
You should all be aware that a leader who fooled you
And told you lies to get elected
Rejected
A civil rights bill
With skill
What is he saying
Subliminal vibes again
Chorus:
You're known as Miss Freedom
You're known as the land of opportunity
Yea but what do they know
They know nothing
The "tell-lies-vision" it's got a nation trapped
Keepin' you flip back and forth and back
A remote to your brain
You remain the same
Intellectual genocide
It's suicide
Because you play the game
And turn it on
So now you're caught
Like a base head visual
Fiending for the things you see
On your "tell-lies-vision" television!
Subliminal vibes again
Chorus
Subliminal nation
Governmental constitution
Emancipated Miss Freedom
Was their mendacious solution
To keep us really where we are
Mentally, physically and foolishly
Abiding by the rules they set
What do they know. They don't live like we do
They'll never understand the middle or lower class
So you better believe we goto overstand ourselves
From the white house in D.C
They'll never see you and me
Believe that brother
So whether you're white or whether you're black
Take your brother's hand and sure 'nuff understand
That this world is in need of a new plan
Stop suffering and bring love across the land
Miss Freedom – they call you Miss Freedom
Inject the innocent with subliminal
Criminal vibes with the message attainable
Station to station
Tellin' lies to a nation
Addressed by the president yo
You should all be aware that a leader who fooled you
And told you lies to get elected
Rejected
A civil rights bill
With skill
What is he saying
Subliminal vibes again
Chorus:
You're known as Miss Freedom
You're known as the land of opportunity
Yea but what do they know

The "tell-lies-vision" it's got a nation trapped
Keepin' you flip back and forth and back
A remote to your brain
You remain the same
Intellectual genocide
It's suicide
Because you play the game
