The Cost of Freedom

The cost of freedom 
Life is a free zone 
If the earth is the only one planet
 for every human
So We oath to live freely
If not what is the worth of life 
When all we have to do
 is keep fighting for freedom 
In a world of chains and poverty 
design by humans

The cost of freedom 
Freedom is free 
Says who
In this times i wonder if truly 
anything is free
If freedom Is all about 
a fight Before and now
So i wonder again 
why we have to keep fighting
 just to be free 
Rather be free from who
 or from what 
For this life is controled 
by a long never change formular 
The master and the slaves
So again and again
 i wonder so deeply 
What makes a man the master 
and the the other man a slave 
if all are equal
 in the principle of nature 
where humanity is never found 
with out love

The cost of freedom 
I recon as my soul 
speaks to me saying
Freedom is so expensive 
When you oath to pay 
with your blood 
Freedom is so difficult 
when you must live through
 a law that is never in your favour 
Freedom is so hard 
when you cant live 
to think on your own 
Freedom is an illusion 
When your life is been
 determine by some one else
Freedom is a doom 
when is only proclaim
 but has no reality

The cost of freedom
Too many fight
 for freedom every where i see
Too many innocent 
has gone six feet on this quest 
Too many wars has been fought
 before and now 
just to achieve this freedom 
Yet freedom is still too far 
from too many people in the world 
And finally we are still on chains
 of no change 

The cost of freedom
Every one needs to be free
Yet freedom has no space
 in our lifes today 
Every one needs freedom 
Yet the world is full of authorities
 that devalues humanity 
Every one needs to be free 
yet freedom is invisible 
in the third world 
either does it exist globally 
Everyone needs freedom 
yet it take a life time to afford 
The cost of freedom

So glad to see your presence on my page and the comments. After reading this piece it made me appreciate the little freedom I have compared to those in other countries. Sometimes we take freedom for granted until its taken away. This is a powerful write Richard!!
