They call it freedom
fight for us
or we'll lock you up

They call it freedom
play our game
and we'll fill your cup

They call it freedom
do as we say
not as we do

They call it freedom
follow the rules
or we'll take it from you

They call it freedom
justice for all

They call it freedom
an innocent man takes the fall

They call it freedom
but are we free at all?


Just a thought to ponder........

A very interesting way of looking at things. *grin* but we do decide if we want to live by the rules or not. Choices always have consequences to them whether good or bad. Very interesting thoughts you raise with this poem. I enjoyed the mental exercise it gave me.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
