Speaking in degradation A conversation can take a sudden turn And reaching the point of violence Because your silence left you without a hand to hold Your past will lead you on to make Making a final judgment Based on your bias will never bring you forward Terror should never guide you For even the fearful can take a beating in the end Suspicion gets you nowhere Those who denounce a way of life Will stand alone Left to atone their social blunders If you gun down the messenger You guarantee that he will be made Into a saint The martyr of the free word I will say what I think I will do what I say When liberty seems out of reach We'll fight for our freedom of speech Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, Et lux perpetua luceat eis Missing a simple context A mental weakness can throw you out of balance Listen, respect each other It's not too late for mercy I will say what I think I will do what I say When liberty seems out of reach We'll fight for our freedom of speech
