|
|
do you really think me selfish
|
||
|
|
because I do not believe
|
||
|
|
that charity should be done
|
||
|
|
at the point of a gun?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
would that I could snap my fingers
|
||
|
|
and free every person from detention
|
||
|
|
but injustice does not forgive injustice
|
||
|
|
and force breeds only resentment
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
a land for every person
|
||
|
|
where they can live free, left alone
|
||
|
|
no longer enslaved to the fear
|
||
|
|
of hearing that siren two-tone
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
do you really think me pitiful
|
||
|
|
because I do not feel
|
||
|
|
that freedom can be gained
|
||
|
|
by lapping at politician's heel?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if power could destroy itself
|
||
|
|
we wouldn't be almost at three centuries
|
||
|
|
of simping to an authority
|
||
|
|
instead of doing as we please
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and harm none, do as ye will:
|
||
|
|
I will live by this prayer
|
||
|
|
and life will be fulfilling
|
||
|
|
even if not always fair
|
||
