Freedom To/Freedom From 02/09/88

Freedom to or freedom from
Tell me which is the better one?
Do we play it safe or take control?
Do we fight back or play the role?
Freedom to my human rights
But still afraid to go out at night
Freedom to speak just as I please
Danger and misfortune part of the fees
They'll give me freedom from pain and strife
But they also have the right to take my life
They'll keep me safe, there'll be no risk
They'll shoot me down if I raise my fist
Freedom to or freedom from
Tell me which is the better one
So tell me sir which do you prefer
The way thing's'll be or the way they were?
And tell me ma'am what do you put first?
A right to be the best or your chance to be the worst?
Freedom to or freedom from
That day of choosing is soon to come
