Rob Mulders - Freedom Lyrics

Freedom, how long? 50 years?
Well long enough to forget about the tears that we had
When times where sad freedom hard to get and hope was all we had
Caue freedom?
It's not a fact, it's a precious thing that we have to respect
Cause it's easy to break the rules, yeah
Freedom gives you chances and freedom gives you tools

Freedom, it's got its price to pay
Freedom, lets keep it that way

You can ride the train and don't pay for the ride
Shout at the conductor or even start a fight
You can smoke a cigarette where it's not allowed
Steal somebody's things and disappear in the crowd
You can be a danger, drive too fast in your car
Freedom has got its limits, you've got to know where they are
Cause when you live in freedom, it's easy to abuse it
The power of freedom is that you know how to use it

Freedom, you know you can't have it all
Freedom, you know you can't have it all

Freedom, you've got to hold it tight
Freedom, it's an achievement, not a right
Freedom, wake-up open your eyes
Freedom, don't forget to realize
Freedom, you know how it feels
Freedom, you know how it deals
Freedom, we have to work, we have to fight
Freedom, an achievement, not a right

Freedom, it's got its price to pay
Freedom, lets keep it that way

Freedom of speech, it doesn't mean you have to swear
That you can hurt somebody's feelings like you just don't care
It is up to you where you draw the line
Cause freedom is all about respect and feeling fine
Don't forget to realize how much freedom you really need
Sometimes you slow down, sometimes you get on your feet
It's up to you how much you take how much you give in
Cause freedom, still the best way to live in

Freedom, you know you can't have it all
Freedom, you know you can't have it all

Freedom, it's got its price to pay
Freedom, lets keep it that way
