Freedom Lyrics by Gabe Heller

Everybody Thinks I’m Dave

2007

[Chorus]
If freedom isn't free then it's not freedom
If we're obliged to fight for our rights then they're not rights
If they pay us to fight then we are not volunteers
And if we die then it isn't casual at all
I am not a public speaker
If I'm drumming up support then it is not a groundswell
If I'm organizing youth this is not a grassroots movement
Just cause I'm up on stage doesn't make me right
[Chorus]
If freedom isn't free then it's not freedom
If we're obliged to fight for our rights then they're not rights
If they pay us to fight then we are not volunteers
And if we die then it isn't casual at all
If I'm good looking, that doesn't make me good
If I'm tall then that doesn't make me a big man
Just cause I'm in the lead doesn't mean I'm a leader
Being in charge doesn't make me smart
[Chorus]
If freedom isn't free then it's not freedom
If we're obliged to fight for our rights then they're not rights
If they pay us to fight then we are not volunteers
And if we die it isn't casual at all
Enemy of my enemy is my rival, not my friend
My house is not automatically my home
Just because my nation's strong doesn't mean that I am
My country is not the same thing as my land
[Chorus]
If freedom isn't free then it's not freedom
If we're obliged to fight for our rights then they're not rights
If they pay us to fight then we are not volunteers
And if we die it isn't casual at all
[Chorus]
If freedom isn't free then it's not freedom
If we're obliged to fight for our rights then they're not rights
If they pay us to fight then we are not volunteers
And if we die it isn't casual at all
