FREE CHOICE<\/font><\/p>\n

I pray for a potion
\nfor what we truly need:
\nagainst misinformation
\nwhich blames alleged \u201cgreed.\u201d<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

For it is not sinful
\nto work hard for some wealth,
\nas long as we\u2019re mindful
\nof what sustains our health.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

And that is the freedom
\nto be what we prefer.
\nShun those who\u2019d mislead \u2018em;
\nto a few rules defer.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

For regimentation
\nwill not make us happy.
\nEach new generation
\nwill know that it\u2019s cr*ppy.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Let us keep the option
\nto live as we choose,
\nelse humans\u2019 last caption
\ncould be \u201call of us lose.\u201d<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

VOICE CHOICE<\/font><\/p>\n

I find that when making life choices
\nI listen to the urgent voices
\nthe ones which echo in my head
\nWish I could make out what they said.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
