I dream simply to be free.
The dream that should belong to we,
Natural human liberty.
We wait and wait so patiently.

Soldiers fight across the sea.
The fight and fight so recklessly.
What is out there that they see?
Who is out there that they free?

Bombs and guns so close to He.
Why can’t they be here with We?
The American dream is to be free.
Why does that not apply to thee?

Fire and hatred relentlessly.
Tears and sobbing constantly.
Children fighting for the key.
The key to their born liberty.

They dream of here secretly.
They dream the right to speak free.
They dream the right to worship free.
They dream the dream to be free.
