Quit Being Hyper Hypocritical About Freedom

Stop it! Quit being hypocritical about freedom What type or what kind that you are talking about? Be serious! Keep on talking about freedom Until you drive me to boredom Until I am strong enough to eat a live trout Keep on yelling freedom, freedom Until you lose your kingdom In Galatians 5: 1,13-15: we found these words, not in error "You shall love as yourself your neighbor" "But through love become slaves to one another" "If, however, you bite and devour one another, Take care that you are not consumed by one another" Go read the Bible yourselves, ‘because we are free' We are brothers and sisters, we should love one another Yes, Christ died for our freedom, for our liberty We want freedom in America We want freedom in Cuba We want freedom in Columbia We want freedom in Haiti Which is poor because of exploitation Corruption, violence, hatred, pollution Lies, extortion, racism, theft, distortion Misery, slavery, crimes and discrimination Stop, stop being hypocritical about freedom Let's finish elaborating and talking about freedom Before alluding to or commenting on democracy Which is more twisted, complex, convoluted or mazy Big brother is supposed to protect the little one In this world, we should fight for freedom for everyone For the rich, the poor, the underprivileged and the elderly The strong must protect the weak one. Oh! Miss Liberty Stands for something noble and divine for all "For freedom Christ has set us free", so we can walk tall So we can think freely So we can wink freely So we can talk freely So we can walk freely So we can laugh freely So we can clap freely So we can write freely So we can chat freely While respecting each other And protecting one another Oh! Freedom, Freedom. Too many humans have senselessly And falsely die in your name. Oh! Freedom. Oh! Liberty.
