Freedom Of Speech (Testify)
every word written,
spoken and shared,
to be used against me...
then, so be it.
testify!
the lie will always
be the lie,
and truth, always
the truth.
the sins of mankind fester,
and stink beneath their cover.
money does not justify,
privilege does not ordain.
the masks of prejudice,
apathy, and hatred,
have fallen in the storm.
false gods crumble,
and are swept to the side.
a new day is coming.
the spirit redeems the flesh.
you can chain the body,
but you can no longer
imprison the soul!
speak, write, communicate!
stand up like a man.
the cost of liberty is honesty,
beginning right here, right now!
