TAKE YOUR HOPE
In the whisper of this breeze there is someone you may hear
In the whisper of this night someone else is going to fight
Take your mama, take your hope, take your guns and charge ‘em all
Take your freedom and your bride, take just all your life and rights
And I wonder if it’s right, and I’m wondering tonight
If tomorrow little kid will I see you really free
And I wonder if I’ll kill to defend you and to live
And I wonder what you’ll think about daddy’s bloody hands
Maybe something you can lose but here there’s too much lost
Maybe something you’ll forgive most of all to be forgiven
Take your mama, take your sons, take your world and pack it all
Take your freedom n’ beloved bride: take just all your hopes and life
Maybe someday you will live, maybe someday you will breathe
Just a freedom I don’t know: what I’ve never lived and hoped
But I wonder if I’ll kill to defend you and to live
How I wonder, little kid, what you’ll think of me n’ feel
I’m wondering how, I’m wondering how
This world will be a place for freedom and for peace
I’m wondering how, I’m wondering how
This world will be a place for you to be free
