It used to be that men would strive
In their brief time on earth
To do what’s right and teach their young
Respect for things of worth
Like honesty, integrity,
To live in God’s good grace,
And when their lives were ended,
To have left a better place.
But now, it seems some have forgot
That freedom is a right,
Of everyone—not theirs to take—
For freedom we will fight.
