We Are Told

We are told that we have got freedom yet not freedom to do as we like There are places we are not allowed to walk in or where we cannot ride a push bike Which means that our freedom is so called since we cannot even walk where we please Ours is such a limited freedom we are not as free as a breeze. Without a passport we cannot travel to another Country and that is for a limited time And if we overstay our visa that is a deportable crime By the Immigration Department of Government by a Government not blessed with a soul There is a name for such a practice 'tis known as population control. Young men in wars fought and died for freedom but was it for freedom they died? When their Government leader told them they were fighting for freedom to the young and naive troops he lied They fought for the glory of their leader and risked their lives on a foreign shore They were used as pawns in a deadly power game just that sad to say nothing more. We are told that we have got freedom though we have to be careful with the words we say And if our speech on it has got restrictions then what is freedom anyway? Young men fought and even died for freedom at least that's what we are made to believe By so called patriotic politicians people who are known to deceive.
