Woke and Freedom's Voice

Will liberty ring out again beneath the cries of human rights can freedom's name survive, dissembling and lies Will duty from its prison flee throw off its shackled memory is respect just a word spoken,but never heard How long,how long 'til I becomes thee ? when when will ego bend the knee the victim is not me my friend my friend it's we. Who rings this bell of liberty truly woke sounds our culture's death knell. | Year Posted 2010
