Freedom is not for everyone....


Who are you to come here and kill We didn’t drag you and your brother against your will Your parents thought you would be safer over here Because they didn’t want you living in fear Does our freedom here scare you or is it too much Because you couldn’t make friends and thought you were so tuff When truly you’re just weak and evil To cast such hate on so many innocent people Now one is dead and spends his days burning in hell While the other is receiving OUR medical help Help he really doesn’t deserve But yet we are a country that shows him concern We show forgiveness in the eyes of hate We have a policy that we don’t discriminate We GIVE way more than we receive And yet we are still the most hated country So as we sit back and collect our thoughts Remembering the three innocent victims that we lost Along with the hundereds that were wounded for life Things in Boston will not ever be right Brought together by tragedy like so many times before United we stand and our freedom still soars
