A Flag Speaks At Hampshire College

?So...... burn me you can try To use my colors for a fire But why ?? I am the flag of Freedom Semper Fi Red - the blood of patriots hear them sigh White - their Mothers’ tears hear them cry Blue - hopes and dreams of freedom..never die So... burn me symbol of your right to speak burn me flag of human rights burn me flag by whose bright lights those who thirst for freedom set their sights So... burn me... BURN ME UP .... LIGHT THE SKY !! Have your little say Then say goodbye. Defile the flag of Freedom for your gain, Only your own honor has been stained. In the hearts of men I truly fly, I am the flag of Freedom Semper Fi. You can only burn me, I can never die.
