Liberty

Liberty,Oh Liberty
how I do seek thee
free from all fear of man
free to live
in a peaceful land
having what you own be yours
not a slave
to foreign shores

Liberty,Oh Liberty
are you just a dream
where everyone has equal say
where everyone has their day
walk without need
of a helping hand
walk with a smile
gracing the land

Liberty, Oh Liberty
Hast thou forsaken me
littered lives are everywhere
with out so much
as a backward glare
abandoned homes and broken stuff
too much dependence
on the good ol' Gov.

Liberty, Oh Liberty
oh how I still seek thee
to stand beside our fellow man
preserve the freedoms
bought on the sands
from the aggressors
where they stand
free to reach the stars above
free to reach the heights of love

Liberty,Oh Liberty
how I do seek thee
