prisoner's lament - apo hiking society lyrics
[verse 1]
i′ve been away, i’ve been alone
i′ve never been to your house
i never knew your children
i never met your smiles
where are my friends?
how are they now?
do they remember my name?
don’t look at me like a stranger
some things remain the same
[verse 2]
they called me a fool, they said i was dumb
to fight for my rights like a man
they took away my freedom
thinking that could be done
my prison was h*ll, but heaven as well
knowing that losing this fight
they can deny me my days
but they cannot hide what’s right
[pre*chorus]
for freedom is a joy to me
and justice is my fight
my heart′s my shield
my conscience is my only guiding light
[chorus]
for we were born, yes, you and i
as free as birds in flight
my children, i shall guarantee
shall not be denied their right to be free
(freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom)
(freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom)
