Freedom Isn'T Free

Freedom is a whole lot more 
Than what we can feel and touch
It's part of our very being
And the things we love so much

Sometimes we say it's priceless
But there is a price to pay
Some have given all they have
And even their lives today

Why do we take it for granted
When it comes at such a cost
The families of our fallen heros
Regard the things we've lost

So, remember the ones who've sacrificed
Their lives for you and me
They keep us safe from harm each day
For Freedom isn't free
