Songs: Reality

Freedom Aint Free

Verse
Strap up darlin, but first finish your beer. Time to go honey, your ride is here. Make sure you pass inspection. They look for perfection. When you wear the red, white, and blue. All eyes constantly on you.
Bridge
You weren't there on that day. But it still haunts you all the same. You fight for our freedom. But freedom aint free!
Chorus
Strap your gun to your shoulder, it's time to run. Leave behind doubts and fears, the time has come. Stand tall, don't faulter your step it's a sign of weakness. Weakness! Fight for me. Fight because freedom aint free!
Verse
Wake up darlin, no bird will crow. Open your eyes honey, you must go. Straighten your hat, now it's falling. March to the sound of your officer calling. When you signed did you bargain for this? Are you sure you're ready for this?
Repeat bridge and chorus.
Verse
On September 11, 2001 The war had just begun. Our country was under attack. Now our troops fight back. So how can you say freedom is free? I say you're just lying. Nothing in America is free. Freedom aint free!
Repeat chorus.

    by Barbara Writes

    When home is not a home

    Home is not a home
    But a shelter from the winds
    That Mother Nature unleashes
    Upon a troubled heart
