Land of the Free  

Music and Lyrics by Nick Marechal

Good over evil

Now peace at last

Think war is over

Not so fast

Innocence buried

A painful cost

Has something precious also been lost?

A state of emergency, a police state

Where are your papers did you pray today

Though martyrs may collide with society

I’ll take my chances

In a land of the free

Last stand land of the free

Now watch your neighbor

He’s watching you

Is he one of them?

Or one of you?

Long anxious line

Scan every face

False correlations

Are taken away.

Compromise comes home to roost eventually

A justified erosion of liberty

Though martyrs may collide with society

I’ll take my chances

In a land of the free

Good over evil

Now peace at last

Think war is over

Not so fast

A state of emergency, a police state

Where are your papers did you pray today

Though martyrs may collide with society

I’ll take my chances

In a land of the free
