Many people have lived in fear.
For many a day we have not chosen our way.
We do not understand what we read nor hear.
Some of us think it's just what we have to say.

Our statements are true-
for only short times.
Until they're approved
or we shut down as mimes.

Our stature is broken,
our freedom is gone.
When we're left unspoken-
and we find things have gone wrong.

Let's speak forth together
and show all the ways
As we are all together-
to start these new days.

Go forth, go forward, and take hold of the reigns.
Let man's way be rid of these unnatural chains.
Find the glory we seek, from the power within,
And maybe we'll see where we once did begin.

So pass your voice gently to all you do pass.
Give all a choice, intently, that all will surpass.
