Our Enslavement in Freedom



*The Enslaved Freedom of My Home*



It's unfortunate how we claim to fight for freedom yet enslave ourselves in the process. We all shout "peace to our nation" yet we wrig of war at every level of that so much proclaimed peace.



How unfortunate it is that the ones we claim to fight for are the ones we end up taking under our knives and guns.
How unfortunate it is that the land we so yearn to own and call our own would soon fight against us due to the blood that is poured on it day and night.



How unfortunate that we have become the enemy we fight.
It's unfortunate how we hold the Gun yet not see the real direction it points to.



How unfortunate how we are unconsciously erasing thesame generation that is to inherit the so called free land.



Yes we have been oppressed for years...
Yes we haven't enjoyed our own Fatherland due to greed.



Still I ask, how do we get to be free when we are still enslaved by our own definition of Freedom.



We are all just one voice.....
We may not offer much but at least let's  preach and practice PEACE instead of War.
