Fight



Civil liberties balancing on the end of a feather,
So many people in the world but,
None that work together,
I can shake the feel that lifes just a game,
Where some are pay to win,
And the rest of us just fain
Before the crushing pressure to obey,
And to just fall in line,
Some would like to say that there's no chance,
And we might be wasting our time,
But let us not forget the power we hold,
As individuals with our own minds,
We can speak up and make our voices bold,
To fight for what is right.

Though it may seem like we're alone
Their are others in the fight,
There are others out there just like us,
Together we can create a brighter light,
And push back against the unjust.

So let us stand up and take a stance,
For the freedoms we deserve,
And show the world that we won't dance,
To the tune of those who would serve
Their own interests, at the cost of our own,
We are not pawns, we are not drones,
We are individuals with our own will,
And we will fight for our freedoms still.
