In the fragility of this current moment in time, the Universe is telling us we can’t take life and liberty for granted. The choice we are are facing is between being silent or raising our voices to fight for our freedom. Will we win this battle to preserve basic human decency and kindness, and ultimately, leave behind a legacy of peace and hope for future generations?<\/div>

Verse 1
In the early morning light, everything is in my sight; anything is possible
I can be the best of me, build upon my legacy; almost feel unstoppable
But darker days are close at hand, and things are not as I had planned<\/p>

Chorus
Fighting in the streets, dying in the fields
(My) voice is my weapon and courage my shield
I will not be silenced, I will not ignore
This fight for life and liberty, is a life worth fighting for<\/p>

Verse 2
In the shadows of the night, taking time to reunite; across a distant shore
A multi-colored tapestry, woven in the unity, long before this civil war
I\u2019ll take care of both the weak and strong, like it should have happened all along<\/p>

Chorus
Fighting in the streets, dying in the fields
My voice is my weapon and courage my shield
I will not be silenced, I will not ignore
This fight for life and liberty, is a life worth fighting for<\/p>

Bridge
I\u2019ve fought the battles, paid the cost; countless lives that have been lost
On this journey, I have truly grown, and found my way back home<\/p>

Chorus (Out)
Fighting in the streets, dying in the fields
My voice is my weapon and courage is my shield
I will not surrender, my heart\u2019s an open door
To leave behind a legacy, of a life worth fighting for<\/p>
