Tell Me, Freedom

A double edged sword, they say

Will to control but a price to pay

Dream, they say, for one day you shall have it

Alas, it’s a hoax for many a time, feels counterfeit

So limitless and yielding

Yet so fragile and annealing

Rake the ravages of war

Break down the personal wall

A reason to control, to repress

A reason to fight for, valiance we express

Tell me, Freedom, quench my doubts

Are you not equal? Are you not just?

I am but an instrument, a weapon or wings to fly

Purpose and expanse set by those who wield it, comes the reply

Like a whisper in the ear

But in heart, the impact of Mjölnir

A reason to control, to repress

A reason to fight for, valiance we express
