Blades of Freedom

I have this weapon.
It can kill.
It can save.
A double-edged sword, 
Unbreakable, unbendable.

I have this weapon.
It can give everything.
It can be nothing.
A double-edged sword,
So sharp, powerful.

This weapon in my hands,
I can be its master.
I can be its slave.
A double-edged sword,
Beautiful, Dangerous.

This weapon I use,
Fight for others- I win.
Wound myself- I lose.
Blades of Freedom in my hands,
It's always a draw.
