Freedom of Speech
I’m flatter by the system it’s not corporate it just ain’t witness
If every answer came out of the air or thin hair we could do what Moses did and part
The sea
Thoughts that come and thought that play around on time line
I never lost faith in the system the system never characterize a belief
All I ask is can I testify and take it to the streets
If I pledge the alliance does the star mean another
Hero has fallen
Thoughts that come and thought that play around on time line
If word fragments dawn and never waking how would I plead the fifth
Answer out of a page or history book let one judge
Thoughts that come and thought that play around on time line
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
