……………………………………………….
Freedom or Death says the writing on the wall
For to live without freedom is a curse for mankind
God created His humans to rise and not to fall
This is what History tells us we need not be blind!
………………………….
We were united together to have freedom of speech
Slowly we realized it was out of our reach
We’ve been taught we should fight for our right
It seemed impossible and out of our sight!
……………………………….
Who will take stock of the lives we lost
How long will this last and at what cost
It was impossible to calculate the numbers
No one could do it because of the unaccountable murders!
……………………………………..
Will humanity still say we did it all wrong
Pray, guide us and tell us what would you do
If your people were told they did not belong
Would you sit back and let them harm you!
……………………………….
Countless people perished in this war
Who gained by this awful situation
My mind asks this question
There is no one around who knows the answer!
…………………………………….
The silent wall portrays to all who standby
Freedom is necessary to survive,
Without it we may as well die!
……………………………………….. 😦
