Freedom

Lyrics

[Intro] "The fight against the Taliban is certainly hotting up, an eleventh Australian soldier was killed on the weekend" "The Australian government has promised…" [Verse 1] I need some water, I just walked another K And if I don't slaughter people then my mortgage isn't paid I've got a fuckin' daughter on the way And I have to see kids gettin' tortured every day Of course I am afraid, corpses are decayed This ain't like a video game a dork has ever played No background music, no caution for grenades The only time we pause is for a portion when we pray This ain't paradise, I can't sit in a hammock When every citizen's an Islamic religious fanatic Think of the damage innocent kids will be havin' Yeah they're gonna be twisted, I'm fuckin' killin' their parents You think they will manage? You try stoppin' this dirt You got the balls to say "You're havin' problems at work" How many people gotta be hurt? What is it worth? The only way they'll let me leave is in a coffin, the jerks [Chorus 1] So when you're lyin' asleep and you're silently dreamin' I'm in a Jeep tryna fight for your freedom Each night I see the violence increasin' I guess if I die, then I die for a reason Huh, well where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Now I gotta fight my demons, tell me Where the fuck is my freedom? [Verse 2] It's too hot. Can we ever stop, is it possible? My only friend here just got shot at a hospital It's horrible, fuck knows if that finds you I wish I was at Perth, stuck home with the Swine Flu I don't belong here, no, I'm a nice dude It's like I bought a bicycle and rode it through the drive-thru I'ma die soon, I can sense it when I'm steppin' In this blood stained sand where I vent for just a second Pretendin' that it's fine, I'm protected by a weapon But it's gettin' in my mind, I'm destined for defendin' One day I'll be a veteran on a recommended pension Speakin' at detention centres, givin' kids a lesson With medicine to help me sleep, surrender all my blues Unless I'm ended now, beheaded by a troop And another young soldier is sent into my shoes I'll be remembered by a thirty second segment on the news [Chorus 1] So when you're lyin' asleep and you're silently dreamin' I'm in a Jeep tryna fight for your freedom Each night I see the violence increasin' I guess if I die, then I die for a reason Huh, well where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Now I gotta fight my demons, tell me Where the fuck is my freedom? [Bridge] Live or die, I gotta fight my demons, I guess I'll never find my freedom Live or die, I gotta fight my demons, I guess I'll never find my freedom Everyone's screamin', everyone's bleedin' Just for the reason to keep your freedom I'll fight for your freedom, I'll die for your freedom But I ain't gonna lie, I would've liked to have freedom [Chorus 2] So when I'm tryin' to sleep, but I can't, 'cause I'm freezin' My rifle's in reach, 'cause they might try and sneak in Every night, a child is screamin' 'Cause I put a knife through his father, who's bleedin' Huh, so where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Where is my freedom? Now I gotta fight my demons, I guess I'll never find my freedom [Outro] "The fight against the Taliban is certainly hotting up, an eleventh Australian soldier was killed on the weekend" "The Australian government has promised…" "The Australian government has promised…" "The Australian government has…"
