If Hope Dies - Let Freedom Ring (From The Taco Liberty Bell) lyrics

we must bend the bars of these cages around our hearts deconstruct the confines of a weary existence smash apart the stones piled high upon our chests and take in our first breaths of freedom there is no waiting for life to come strike us we must seek it out if we are to feel it's touch and i resolve to seize each day and not let go until my hands can't hold we must not separate ourselves from life cherish and prize each breath taken upon this earth this is our only chance one life, and then it's over you've just got to decide if you'll live life on your knees a clear choice between revolution and apathy if the pain is too much, you can look to me i'll be there to help you up, up to your feet we must forge a path straight through to the light raise ourselves up before we fade into the night sinking down we are drowning in a pool of despair watching as our lives are wrenched away from our hands this is the match held to the fuse the spark that will ignite change we'll sift through the wreckage left behind and dance among the ruins of our prisons
