We want our freedom. Not the fearful freedom Hurled, an epithet against my neighbour. Not the freedom to do what I will Hang the consequences. Not the freedom of mine vs yours.
But, the broad freedom to be With one another again, To care for each other, To imagine and make our future A brighter one together. The freedom of us.
The freedom denied To so many by this plague, To every prisoner locked away, To those you'd rather not see. The freedom that the workers check Every day to punch the clock.
We demand our freedom From those that sacrifice the ill From those that fill the jails From those that own the clocks And use their implements to scare Us into playing their malicious tune.
We need our freedom. To protect what matters Each other Our homes Our home We'll take our freedom.
