Cut the rotting branches of Government that stop the people from having meaning today Stay out of my business and keep to yourself Got to do things my own way Minimizing freedom with your rules and regulations A never-ending hunger to control Choking out the life of your own population Abusing the power you hold Power Control For the Power Control Give me Liberty... or Give me Death Give me Liberty... or Give me Death to our Independence Death to those who fight Death to our Constitution and the Bill of Rights Showing no regard for the way things ought to be Stripping away rights from you and me The Founding Fathers would be rollling in their graves If they could see what you are doing to this place The next thing to go is our Freedom of Speech So i'll speak up while i still can and maximize my reach Power Control For the Power Control Give me Liberty... or Give me Death Give me Liberty... or Give me Death I find it hard to believe Some things are better left unsaid Is this the land of the free? Democracy is Dead Cut the rotting branches of Government that stop the people from having meaning today Stay out of my business and keep to yourself Got to do things my own way Minimizing freedom with your rules and regulations A never-ending hunger to control Choking out the life of your own population Abusing the power you hold Power Control For the Power Control Give me liberty or Death "When the people fear the government there is tyranny, when the government fears the people there is liberty"

This song was, eh, I was told to sing by Miriam Makeba And she is my dear friend And it is a prayer Those of you who are fans of hers will remember this song Westwind blow ye gentle Over the shores of yesterday My sun is brown and over Here within my heart they lay, they lay Westwind with your wisdom Gather all the young for me Black cloud hanging over Nest your bosom strong and free Got each gallon water is plane Got each gallon water is plane 'Cos I am the soil from which they came I am the soil from which they came So Westwind with your splendor Take my people by the hand Spread your glory sunshine off And unify my promised land Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us Westwind with your splendor Take my people by the hand Spread your glory sunshine out Unify my promised land Unify my promised land Unify my promised land
