Not two weeks ago in the mail I got a ticket
|
From the Millbrae 5-0 listing crimes committed
|
Had a picture of a lady in a car that wasn't mine
|
But somehow identities became intertwined
|
Surveillance gone awry yo you got the wrong guy
|
She was the one who was running red lights
|
It's a set up, the government's corrupt
|
Now my State Farm's gonna go way up
|
|
[MC LARS:]
|
How you gonna run a stop light say it wasn't you?
|
Keeping civil peace is what my peeps and me are gonna do
|
You're flaunting all your liberties like they don't mean a thing
|
Writing angry raps just to try and make a scene
|
But the government don't like it when you talk mad trash
|
Standing at the rally with a fat green sash
|
Like "Free Iran", think you're Ayn Rand
|
So we'll trace your calls to deflate your evil plan
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
In the walls, in the floors, in the halls, in the doors
|
In the sky, in the car, late at night from afar
|
Why you gotta be in my space?
|
Just doing my job, keeping you safe
|
On the phone line, email we know every detail
|
ATM pin codes, all up in my Gmail
|
It's like hide and seek
|
Can't a girl get a little privacy?
|
|

|
Pentopticon they say it makes us safer from the Taliban
|
But what we gonna do when all the laws are gone
|
Lock so-called criminals in Azkaban, it goes on and on
|
Diaries unloosed from underneath all the mattresses
|
Strip search striped shirt, that's only the half of it
|
Slipshod shut close cases concocted
|
How they seal the deal?
|
Evidence Photoshopped it
|
|
[MC LARS:]
|
It's 187 on the independent rapper,
|
Like Sister Souljah, hey let's ask her
|
Your words mean nothing, we're not scared of this
|
You're either down with us, or you're a terrorist
|
So don't believe the lies when you're in a state of war
|
And they're breaking down your door like it was 1984
|
There's no Oceanic double-speak contradiction because
|
Big Brother loves you and Orwell wrote fiction
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
In the walls, in the floors, in the halls, in the doors
|
In the sky, in the car, late at night from afar
|
Why you gotta be in my space?
|
Just doing my job, keeping you safe
|
On the phone line, email we know every detail
|
ATM pin codes, all up in my Gmail
|
It's like hide and seek
|
Can't a girl get a little privacy?
|
|
[MC LARS:]
|
Stand up, line up, let them know that you're here
|
Check in, check out, and fumigate your fear
|
Oh no, it's fine Uncle Sam's got your back
|
Forget the US troops shot dead in Iraq
|
CCTV everywhere all the time
|
Cause the FBI is even tapping your rhymes
|
Check philosophy from Socrates back in ancient Greece
|
There's no enlightenment if we can't increase the peace
|
|
[K.FLAY:]
|
No privacy they got us locked down
|
Satellites in the air spy cams on the ground
|
Every village, every city, every town
|
Tracking all our moves like a bloodhound
|
Yeah we're fucked as Huxley predicted
|
Snapping pics, falsely convicted, innocents interdicted
|
Kegs and wires similarly tapped
|
No way to get your ass off the map
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
In the walls, in the floors, in the halls, in the doors
|
In the sky, in the car, late at night from afar
|
Why you gotta be in my space?
|
Just doing my job, keeping you safe
|
On the phone line, email we know every detail
|
ATM pin codes, all up in my Gmail
|
It's like hide and seek
|
Can't a girl get a little privacy?
