Freedom and Lies

from The Rise and The Fall by Sean Ryder

/

lyrics

Is it Freedom
to slap a man in the face
he don't look the same way?

Is it Freedom
to tear down the house he built
to have a place to pray?

Is it Freedom
that lets you sleep at night
When you take what you don't own?

Is it Freedom
that guards the life you've built
time you reap what you have sown.

I don't know what time it's coming
but it's coming on down the line
I can feel its rumbles
Yeah I can read the signs

Is it Truth
When you shut down the press
to hide what you have done?

Is it Truth
when your lapdogs spread your lies
and real journalists are shunned

Is it Truth
Just because you won't believe it
And scream out that its fake?

Is it Truth
When you twist the facts?
There's far too much at stake.

I don't know what time it's coming
but it's coming on down the line
Oh, I can feel its rumbles
yeah, I can read the signs

I don't know what time it's coming
but it's coming on down the line
Oh, I can feel its rumbles
yeah, I can read the signs

Is it Freedom
to slap a man in the face
he don't look the same way?
