Freedom

My enemies have poisoned my friends
with hopes that they will share.
Consuming by fire and human desire
the last of human care.

My loved ones have eaten. They've eaten their fill.
In search of something more.
Their minds overheatin'; a chemical spill.
A chemically induced war...

I insist you resist!
You're something else.

My weaknesses, they multiply.
My strength, it dwindles to nil.
I stood in my dreams to prophecy, but
All I could say was, "Kill, kill kill!"

My brothers and sisters are falling apart,
beneath the weight, on bended knee.
They're broken, they're blistered, and falling apart.
Reflecting back light, so ALL CAN SEE!!!

I insist you resist!
We're something more!!!

Freedom, just a breath away.
Freedom, so that I could know my name.
Freedom, just a breath away.
Freedom, so that I could know your way...
Is free.
