See it now for what it really is
power hunngry nothing much to give

and violent, all in the name of freedom
A          G        D
Freedom is not domination
D              A              G         F#
I believe that freedom has to come from within
Yes it does and without the guns
Freedom is the ability to feel love for everyone

Verse 2
The Empire controls the media
And the media controls the world
Media is the empire's mouth
Capitalist, propaganda comin' out
and violence, all in the name of freedom
Freedom is not a competition
I believe, that freedom has to come from within
Yes it does not with the guns
Freedom is the ability to feel love for everyone

(repeat intro)
