Freedom

Tony36

Freedom for the many

Freedom for the few

Freedom for men

Freedom for women and children to

 

The voices of freedom call

The chants

The protests

The rise against those who oppress us

 

Tearing down walls

That have held us back for years

Reaching new hieghts

Fighting for truth

Fighting for justice

Fighting to be free

 

Sound your voice

Sound it loud and strong

Tell them we will not take it anymore

 

They have oppressed us enough

Standing before us

Rubbing our noses in the dirt

Stripping away our freedoms a little at a time

Favoring the rich and powerful

Telling the common man "To shove it up their behind"

 

I for one have had enough

Time to strike back

Time to stand tall

Time to stand firm

Time to cause a fuss

Protests

Picket Lines

Boycotts

These shall be our tools

So if you are tired of this treatment

You can join me to

 

We shout

We cry

We sound our voice

To let them know

We will take no more of their crap

 

The road before us is not easy

The struggle will be hard

Little by little

We will gain ground

We will weaken their defenses

Little by little

Victory will be ours

 

Some may die

I will not say that they wont

But

Their sacrifice will not be in vain

In their deaths they will be honored

For their courage

For their strangth

For their part in this great struggle

They gave their all

So shall we

 

We fight oppression

In whatever form it takes

We fight oppression

Hunt it down

Make it pay

 

The oppression must come to an end

Those who join the fight

Will be fighting for a better future

For friends

For family

For the entire human race

 

Freedom we shout

Down with the tyrants

Yes, we come from different backgrounds

Yet we stand as one

Men

Women

Children

Sounding their voices

Loud and strong

All fighting

All hopping

To smell the fresh air of freedom

 

You may be poor

You have all the same rights

As the rich and powerful

So stand as brothers and sisters

Stand and prove your worth

Stand and be counted among

Those who will change things for the better

 

Freedom calls

Will you answer

Will you rise above

Will you fight

For a brighter future

      Powerful write but FIGHTING is not the way to go that only creates more problems and escalates them. I don't know the answer perhaps if the world could stand together and tell those who allegedly have the power (and the money) we won't do what you want anymore so we will continue in peace.
