freedom is a choice
some have no choice
some embrace freedom

embrace freedom aspired
to with life risk abandonment
life given on cusp freedom
threshold mind enlightenment

we embrace our true birthright
born separating mind into heart
mind soul demands free spirit

history records tyrant oppression
history records slave rebellion
history teaches freedom liberation
