Are you prepared?
They'll ask you to choose.
They'll ask you to 'willingly'
give up your birthright, or else.
They'll take it from you anyway.
The choice isn't really a choice.
It never was a choice.
Are you prepared
to fight for what you believe,
for what is right, for justice,
for your very freedom?
Hold that thought,
because it doesn't matter
what you do or don't do.
All was written in stone
on walls stretching back
towards the dawn of time.
For thousands of years
you've been forced
to make a choice
that isn't
one,
entrusted others
with the power to make
the BIG decisions for you.
What will you say when
they come a-knocking,
asking you choose?
Remember,
either way you lose.
If an answer to the question
exists, it exists in the tension.
You're a high wire act. Resolute,
you find your balance
between the
two.
