Lyrics
Give Me Back My Freedom
In the land of common sense
What are we to make of recent events
People looting in the streets
Corruption stealing our peace
Tell me why a token few
Can change the world's view
Locked down in our homes
In a world of unknowns
Give Me Back My Freedom
Free me from this virtual reality
How can we learn from our mistakes
If you change our history
Give me back my freedom
Leave me to my life of privacy
If we're not harming anyone
What gives you authority
Get me out of my head
Get me out of this bed
Why can't I make a living
When I'm damn ready and willing
We may not be in the same boat but we're in the same storm
So get me out of this house
It's time to perform
Give Me Back My Freedom
Free me from this virtual reality
How can we learn from our mistakes
If you change our history
Give me back my freedom
Leave me to my life of privacy
If we're not harming anyone
What gives you authority
This list is getting long of the things we've lost along the way
So leave us alone and stay out of our way
Give Me Back My Freedom
Free me from this virtual reality
How can we learn from our mistakes
If you change our history
Give me back my freedom
Leave me to my life of privacy
If we're not harming anyone
What gives you authority
So leave us alone and stay out of our way
