FIGHTING TO BE FREE
  
CHORUS People all around the world are fighting to be free.
The protests seem so far away, like they don’t hurt you or me.
But the battles are getting closer, all around our country too
People speak out for justice, and for equality.
 
VERSE Their words spread like a virus, they reach throughout the land.
Folks rally to the call that comes in from their phone.
Support comes from all over; some have a peaceful plan.
Some say come join the battle, no need to fight alone.
 
CHORUS
 
VERSE From Egypt to Belarus; China to Hong Kong; from Africa to India. Iran to
Pakistan,
The headlines spread the news, as new groups take a stand.
For some it’s one more riot that’s gotten out of hand.
For others, it’s a call to fight for freedom in their land.
 
BRIDGE So what’s happening everywhere on earth should concern us all.
We can all be victims, from bombs to online hacks.
The world grows more unsettled with each passing day.
We all must be more careful to protect against attacks.
 
CHORUS
