Leave the saying of a false truth
To the vain, lame, and rowdy uncouth
For truth is more than just a word
To have freedom, it must be heard
We have to be bold when lies are told
For if we shy when we hear a lie
We do not well if freedom fell
Lies are the villains master
Eroding truth all the faster
Clouding it with festering doubt
Giving evil its time to shout
Truth once dented with lying ways
Brings calamity in future days
Hold with virtue, hold to true
Never let the Devil have his due
Truth is mightier than any lie
Held solemn least it die
Be not the one, to let truth undone
When all stand tall
Freedom can not fall

Like childhood was a task
Leave the saying of a false truth
To the vain, lame, and rowdy uncouth
For truth is more than just a word
To have freedom,
