I Am Liberty!

From under the rock I can see, waiting for my moment to be,
Deciding now I should be known, I rip throw the rock, 
From which I was grown,
 I descend from the sea letting the salt cleanse me,
 I stand strong letting those know I’ll fight to keep free.
 Don’t get me wrong I’ll go out of my way to keep the dove of peace, 
I’ll even share my apple of knowledge if I know you won’t deceive me,
 It would be wise of thee not to cross that line
 I’ll send war and justice to defend me….
 For I am liberty!
