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

Yes....
Most in my world can't free them selfs though!
Poeticly politically powerful
Thanks
Thank You
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.
Thank You
