Freedom Rifle
February 28, 2013
Ready!
Many men have died
Leaving wives without husbands
Leaving moms without sons
Leaving sons without fathers
Aim!
I carry this rifle
Is killing worth it?
Is freedom worth it?
Is death worth it?
Fire!
My wife and son
Will have no father
Will have no husband
Will have no support
Retreat!
I begin my flight
I look down
I look down in sorrow
I look down at them
