’Til All Are Free
July 4th
’Til all are free, no one is free
That is a true democracy
And this fight takes bravery
Like the bravery that came afore
Suffered by those that came before
We must remember those of yore
We must continue their hard fight
We must continue what is right
And keep our eyes upon the sight
And not just sing the pretty songs
Carry placards and march along
If all are not free, then it’s wrong
Because today if it is me
Next day could be your destiny
So once it’s gone, then none are free
Please leave your comments below.
