1st verse:
I take a drag of my cigarrette
as I take a look at life again
and I wonder to my self
what it is to be free.
You see theres people dying
dying for you and me
and for the soul protection of
this place we must call home.
So what is it to be?
What is it to be free.
Chorus:
I speak my words so clearly
this I know it makes me free
And it hurts me so dearly
just to know that others
cant speak the same words as me.
For here prisons an option.
Other places you cant see beyond the bars.
2nd verse:
One morning a mother faces her worst fear
when a nice dressed man came to her door and said
your son wont be home ever again.
He took a bullet to his head.
Please take this flag and medals
and honor his memory.
2nd chorus:
She looks into a mirror with all her pain
and says to herself
I will not give up this dream.
For my son he gave it all.
I know this freedoms bliss
but I must not let it fall.
Because beleiving a dream is all the hope we have
and I will not lose hope.
