We all want to be free,
But do we truly know what freedom is.
Freedom is not just something that we get
And then we just brag about it.
Freedom is truly something special.
Freedom is being able to go to church every
Sunday and worship with worrying about getting killed.
Freedom is not free.
Freedom is not just something to brag about,
And act like it is not important.
Freedom is not free.
Freedom is being able to say what you want,
And to be able to do what you want as long as it is legal.
Freedom is not free.
Freedom is something that takes thousands of
Soldier's life's every year,
And causes families to mourn for many years afterwards.
Freedom is not free.
Freedom is not free.
Freedom is not free.
