Freedom Is

To me, it is the joy
The laughter of children playing in nature
The coffee and toast of a lazy Sunday with my love
To climb a mountain, thank life for the struggle and beauty
To use my time to write a poem or a useless song
What is it to be free?
Will you please tell me what is the meaning
The utility of freedom?
To me, it is to build my house
And learn to do it with my own two hands
To leave home and start walking
With the open mind of a real traveler
To get naked with my friends
And jump into a cold mountain stream
To grow food from a seed
And care for it, and of course share it
To be authentic, say what I mean
And mean what I say without measure
To be defined not by my limitations
But the actions I take to overcome them
But freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
But freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
We have to stop destroying our planet
Treating nature as a commodity
We have to stop incarcerating children
Escaping from misery, seeking refuge
We have to stop the drowning of thousands in the Mediterranean
People looking for dignity and peace
We have to stop fascism in our governments and screens
Because it doesn't exist without complicity
I want to live in a society that cares for everyone's freedom
That cares for everyone's freedom
'cause freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
'cause freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
'cause freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
'cause freedom is collective
Or it is not freedom
