Reawaken
What if our words could never be used
And if they were, we would be accused?
What if our prayers could never be said?
We would be left with only our tears to shed.
What if we weren't able to read the news?
Opinions would be lost, we'd all be confused.
What if in public we couldn't protest with signs?
Even if our intention was not to undermine?
What if we couldn't petition a cause?
All of our actions would be put to a pause.
Without civil liberties our freedom would be taken,
Knowing the reality makes us all reawaken.
