                          In times of great vexation
              when one must choose between what's right and wrong
                             freedom, so they say,
                   amounts to but the choices you have made!
 
                           Through all the arbitrary
                         rationale concerning liberty,
                             freedom, I must say,
                      exists within unconditioned minds!
 
                                   Reason...
                               has come of age.
 
                           How can you be satisfied
                         with things the way they are
                        when all that surrounds us now
                               and so much more
                                remains inside
                          the keeper's dark embrace?
 
                                The insatiable
                           thirst for power has made
                             idols out of mortals
                                gods into clay
                              soldiers into heros
                             children into slaves!
 
                                  All damned
                                   desires
                             their hopes betrayed.
 
                           Who will suffer the laws,
                          that State can decide your
                              child's education,
                           unless you pay the price?
 
                                   Refrain:
 
                          Who will suffer their laws?
                         Who will suffer their minds?
                         Who will suffer their words?
                        Who will suffer their designs?
