Your Freedom
~
Our troops are fighting for freedom,
so let's exercise it here.
We have the right to say what
to some doesn't seem too clear.
That we defend your right
to say what you believe.
And we will listen to your opinion,
but, please, please, take heed.
The freedom that you exercise
was fought for and hard won.
And the price upon your heads
are the nations daughters and their sons.
So, do not shame the honor
or the memories that lie there.
Stand tall in this great nation
freedom rings for all to hear.
The world is silently watching
to see what we will do.
Please take a stand for freedom
because they're fighting for YOU too.
