Freedom the Fraud

Freedom is a captivating illusion
Just a dream you know
She seduces the naïve 
And keeps the simple believing
Those who live that dream
Become victims of seduction
Fewer decide differently
And then forever 
Fight the fetters 
Which trap them in the truth
Dodged by default
With innocent arrogance
By the unbelieving
