Freedom is Never Free!
Freedom is never free!
Countless lives were sacrificed
For your and my liberty.
Voices of fathers, brothers, uncles,
Friends and lovers too
Are now silenced forever
So that we, I, you
May be free to live
In city, town or village.
North, South, East or West.
Each decides where to stake a claim.
This right was earned by those whose names
Are written on walls, scrolls, and paper,
By you here!
All made the ultimate sacrifice;
Each must be remembered
For the role they played in gaining
Our freedom by
Relinquishing their own!
Freedom, never free!
