This song doesn't tiptoe around the third rail of American politics, it steps all over it. Video coming soon...
Fighting for our Freedom
They’re fighting for your freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
Real reasons for the war have not a thing to do with freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
They’re fighting for your freedom
Not a soldier in no war is fighting for your freedom except for maybe Bradley Manning
Always hearing how our boys are fighting for our freedom
But to speak the truth about em’s tantamount to treason
They say the reason for the wars is to keep freedom alive
But that shit has not been true since bloody nineteen forty five
Truth is all of it is bullshit; it justifies eternal war
Though it’s said a million times it still is only modern folklore
Peace has never had a chance, not when greed is in the way
Profiteering and the devil seems to always win the day
They’re fighting for your freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
Real reasons for the war have not a thing to do with freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
They’re fighting for your freedom
Not a soldier in no war is fighting for your freedom except for maybe Bradley Manning
Over there they blow up schools and do it in our name
Their only real orders are to torture kill and maim
To keep the complex running strong more of war is always needed
Eisenhower had it right but his wisdom wasn’t heeded
We are there to harvest poppies and we’re there to pump the oil
Though it seems to speak this truth somehow renders me disloyal
We must all just stop this nonsense that these wars are for our freedom
Then we’ll stop the bastards who really are committing treason
They’re fighting for your freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
Real reasons for the war have not a thing to do with freedom
They’re fighting for my freedom
They’re fighting for your freedom
Not a soldier in no war is fighting for your freedom except for maybe Bradley Manning
