Rapping Freedom

America - check it out in Iran
A line being drawn in the sand
People yearning for freedom cry
Innocent bloodshed as people die
Stemming from a rigged election
Its people protest with objection
America - time to learn a lesson
From a people caught in oppression
Let us not take for granted being free
As bothers and sisters face tyranny
Where unjust Ayatollahs rule the land
The right to freedom has been banned
America - we must stand hand in hand
For a people caught up in quicksand
As evil rulers force their people down
Freedom's bloodshed as they crackdown
Time to take a good look at our liberty
Soul search the true meaning of being free
America - the time has come at last
As thousands of people are now amassed
Our brothers and sisters across the sea
Are now crying out for their liberty
America - we must voice their battle cry
Or this gasp for freedom will pass them by
