Lyrics

If I was free to just strive
With no hassle from the man
No racist politicians
No immigrant bans
If I could protest on the street
Without getting maced
If I could try and save the planet
No getting laughed in the face
If I was free and had the rights
To pen a protest song
Or do the things that I'm saying
Oh wait I had them all along
But where have they gone
Did someone take them away
Because the last time I read
They're still existing today
But what good's a piece of paper
With a cop's stick in your face
And who do they work for
I thought it was their place
To serve and to protect
I guess they got skewed
Or read a different Bill of Rights
Than I learned in school
Or did they not pay attention
And start making up rules
They work for corporations
And their fucked up views
If I was free to just strive
I'd send a wake up call
If it's united we stand
Then it's divided we will fall
