We Need Free

We Need Free

Free housing…
Free food…
Free travel…
Free spirits…
Free water…
Free air…
Free government…
Free education…
Free healthcare…
Free time…
Free air is the only thing left on this list
In which freedom still exists.
Land of the free?
Depends on who you’re asking.
One thing I do know-
Aint nothin’ free about the hood, slum, or ghetto.
Aint nothing free about wanting to take a needed vacation
But can’t because of the
Ongoing struggle-to-just-survive situation.
Nobody likes it when I ask the question:
“Can’t someone somewhere come up with a new suggestion?”
I just refuse to believe
That this is the best freedom we can achieve.
Oh, I know if you’re rich
That you really can’t feel this
But this is not for you rich.
Yet rest assured-one day-the tables will be switched.
I am poor and real freedom is what the poor long for.
Not what high tech high priced technology next has in store.
Technology could be saving humans
Instead of reenslaving human beings.
All advancements we make
Have become red taped marketability issues.
But the poor can’t afford them
So it doesn’t cater to their issues.
How does life get betta for real
If dead presidents keep classist gaps unfilled?
It’s like they don’t believe in life.
It’s like “freedom” is the opposite of what’s right.
But free people are happy people.
I believe free people don’t put all their trust in corporate steeples.
Free people are still accountable people.
As free people are righteous people.
In America we don’t praise accountability.
But look for ways to make accountability
Nobody’s responsibility.
Except for the poor by which all the rich
Mistakes and sins are paid for.
Family structure and strength are being tapped out.
Current and former family heads
Agree with what I’m speaking about.
When a divorcee turns to look at what was
How often did a lot of their stresses have a financial cause?
But I have never heard of a company apologizing
For the family institution’s destabilizing.
Lobbying corporate dictatorships should no longer be given free reign
To manipulate the emotions of families needing a break from financial strain.
The government has sacrificed integrity
To satisfy the rich minority.
But every year it’s just the same story
About who can achieve the most political glory.
But this is a voice of the poor
Hiding behind no religious, corporate, or political doors.
Yet mine is not a lone voice
As freedom is becoming the masses’ choice.
We are now facing them eye to eye
So they can’t just shake their heads
And walk on by.
No, the dead slaves are waking up.
And that is why the world is shaking up.


Quorizma…
