A song about why you can't stop digital piracy.

Lyrics
Broadcasting my manifesto to all who will listen,
Underground radio, the voice for those resistin’,
Spitting lines to rile the city’s ever-troubled rabble,
This is counter-propaganda, succinct and without babble,
The government is scared of the message that they send,
Over-zealous cops strive to put their signal to an end,
Mobilizing the masses and firing up the troops,
No longer just a crowd, ready to stage their coup,
Freedom—of information!
Freedom—from manipulation!
Freedom—a proclamation!
Freedom—an expectation!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey—
Spanning several networks the data proliferates,
Peer to peer network, the freedom it creates,
Impossible to stop and impossible to contain,
Indignantly infringing, the transfer they maintain,
The digital realm continues to be free,
Commercialization’s grasp too slippery,
That Ethernet cable the lifeline to their world,
The rebel’s plans have already been unfurled,
Freedom—of information!
Freedom—from manipulation!
Freedom—a proclamation!
Freedom—an expectation!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey—
Freedom means hearing what you don’t want to hear,
No squelch no mute, the message’s loud and clear,
They’ve tried to strip your rights for many countless years,
It won’t happen there and it sure as hell won’t happen here!
Freedom—of information!
Freedom—from manipulation!
Freedom—a proclamation!
Freedom—an expectation!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey—Freedom!
