Freedoms Fool

Location

Freedom for you is supposed to be freedom for me

Because our nation's promise is equality.

But ultimately,

You are freedoms fool.

 

Day by day you are being shunned of your rights

No matter how long and how hard you put up a fight

You have the right to bear arms

But our Nations own leaders want to ban them because they say that they harm.

Therefore,

You are freedoms fool.

 

You have the right to love who you choose

But majority of the population sees you as taboo.

So you go on to live your life as society hints off clues,

Like bashing your lifestyle on world news.

They think you’re confused.

But you’re not; you just want to be loved too,

And they don’t realize that you are reaching the end of your fuse.

You are freedoms fool.

 

As Americans, we are granted freedom of speech

This means that we are granted freedom to preach

What we believe in.

If what you say is considered wrong by society consider it a deadly sin

Because your freedom of speech has been turned into the latest joke for them.

They look at you with sarcastic grins

And because of your thoughts and views you will never win.

Again,

You are freedoms fool.

 

Freedom for me is supposed to be freedom for you

But everyday people are being judged on what they do.

Almost none of our rights appear to be true

Because no one seems to have a clue,

That

We are freedoms fool.
