"In our battle against those that detest our free and prosperous society, we cannot 
Sacrifice any of the pillars our nation stands upon, namely respect for the 
Constitution and the rule of law. We must demonstrate to the world that America 
Is the best example of what a solid constitution with properly enforced laws can 
Bring to those who desire freedom and safety. If we become hypocrites about our 
Own legal system, how can we sell it abroad or question legal systems different 
That our own?" 

Force-feeding this artificial pride 
As our freedom is tossed to the side

How can we liberate others, when we can't liberate ourselves? 
How can we liberate others, when we can't liberate ourselves? 
How can we liberate others, when we can't liberate ourselves? 
How can we liberate others, when we can't liberate ourselves? 

When they said that it was legal, they took it all away 
And when they took all of it away, freedom died that day 
When they said that it was legal, they took it all away 
And when they took all of it away, freedom died that day 

And we watch as they dry the blood on their hands with the flames of the constitution. 
(All lies. They sold us illusions and promises.)
