We Want Freedom

We Want Freedom

Verse 1

We want freedom

We're tired of being oppressed

And we won't stop until we achieve it

This war, oh this war is killing us daily

And soon enough we will cease to exist

We're no longer afraid of speaking our minds

Years of silence have done us no good

Propaganda will not deter us

We've formed an army of resistance

Verse 2

We want a future 

Dictated by our needs and by our wants

We're tired of being slaves

This illusion, oh this illusion is undermining our potential

And soon enough we will cease to think

We're no longer afraid of standing up for ourselves

Years of inaction have led to regression

Obstacles and challenges will not deter us

We've formed a union of truth-seekers

Verse 3

We started a movement

The cause is just and moral

It will spread like a wildfire

This life, oh this life, is a gift for us to cherish

And soon enough we won't take it for granted

We're no longer afraid of being imperfect

Years of trying not to be have left us with nothing

Sins and misdemeanors will not deter us

We've formed a bond with the Almighty

Chorus 1

We have been down but we're far from out

We have been low with no place to go

After all the fear-mongering and control

We want freedom

Chorus 2

We have been down but we're far from out

We have been low with no place to go

After all the madness and intimidation

We want freedom
