Story behind the song
I wrote it, and sent it to $bill for some inspiration (in the style of Crosby Still and Nash ... I said) ... he came back with the bass part. I asked if he had a mandolin ... he did. We sent the track to Matt for some vocal improvement ... which he did..... and then it bounced back and forth until it was done :)
Lyrics
If we don't talk about it there will come a day
When we'll wonder how and when
They came and took it all away.
If we don't say enough about the things they try to ban
What to think and where to stand
We'll end up losing it
Freedom freedom
sing about it talk about it
if you need to shout it, shout it loud
Yeah shout freedom freedom freedom
Freedom freedom
sing about it talk about it
if you need to shout it, shout it loud
Yeah shout freedom freedom freedom

and we want be happy
and we want to be free
and we want to live all our lives without your disease
and we want to sing our own songs and climb in our own trees
and we want to have children who can form their own beliefs in freedom
and we want be happy
and we want to be free
and we want to live all our lives without your disease
and we want to sing our own songs and climb in our own trees
and we want to have children who can form their own beliefs
we're gonna live in freedom
we're gonna love in freedom
we're gonna breath in freedom
and sing out freedom
