Freedom

Freedom is the right to learn

For boy and girl, for every bairn

Freedom is to go to school

To learn and question every rule

Freedom is the right to choose

To fight for rights, to win or lose

Freedom to say...THIS IS ME

This is who I want to be

Freedom is a sunny day, a blank page to spend your way

Feel the rain fall on your face

Freedom is an open space

Freedom is the written word

To speak your mind and to be heard

Freedom is the right to buy, the right to strive, the right to try

Freedom is a bird in flight

To shun the dark, embrace the light

Freedom is an open door, to walk on through and to explore

Freedom means that when you fall

I will hear you when you call

Freedom is without oppression

Maybe a gesture or expression

Freedom is the right to grow

And watch in peace the seeds we sow

Freedom is the right to say....ENOUGH!  And then just walk away

Freedom has cost many tears

Its what we've fought for throught the years

With freedom I'll find my own way

I'll choose the God to which I'll pray

Freedom is a restful slumber

I AM ME....I'm not a number

With freedom there's no need to hide

What's your freedom?......You decide
