FREEDOM'S KEY Our forefathers fought and died for freedom's sake and today our sons and daughters the mission take to defend and protect our right to live our lives free; ours is a heritage of hard-won freedom and equality. In a perfect world, there would be no fight for life; oppression cuts into lives like a sharpened knife. Wars will still rage on for freedom from tyranny as we search our hearts and souls for our liberty. Some may take freedom as if it were our due, forget that it was bought by blood for me and you. I will not forget, and I will surely take a stand to ensure our freedom for every one in this land. Now is the time to lift up our voices in despair of those whose lives are beaten down anywhere. The sad suffering of the innocents is plain to see, somehow we have to find for them freedom's key! Our forefathers fought and died for freedom's sake and today our sons and daughters the mission take to defend and protect our right to live our lives free; ours is a heritage of hard-won freedom and equality. We, the People, are FREEDOM'S KEY! Countrymom 4/8/08 |
