**NOTE: Freedom of speech is one of the most important safeguards against authoritarian governments. When people are free to criticize, question, and debate those in power, it becomes far more difficult for tyranny to thrive in silence.** [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Information's all around Waiting only to be found Data flows in currents deep Faster than we all can see [Verse 2] Gutenberg is back once more Stronger than he was before Those who held the single view Cannot stop the coming through [Pre-Chorus] Laws are written to restrain Papercuts inflicting pain While the press tries to enforce "Common good" without remorse [Chorus] Freedom has to be complete No one claims the words I speak Cease your blows and let us talk On the path where equals walk [Verse 3] What is true and what is fake? All they do for power's sake? No one holds the final word Don't become one of their herd [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] Now the state is losing grip Sinking like a dying ship Regulations are too slow They just cannot stop the flow [Pre-Chorus] They will praise the public choice Only when that suits their voice It's just a tool to fit the day And thrown aside when in the way [Chorus] Freedom has to be complete No one claims the words I speak Cease your blows and let us talk On the path where equals walk [Outro] If they say you’re all alone In a bubble of your own Ask them why they cannot see They are just as trapped as me [Instrumental Ending] [End]
