Freedom is not free. by Brian Dodd

Freedom is not free. by

Dedicated to all the brave men and women who paid the ultimate price to uphold our way of life.

Freedom is not free,
the dying man said to me.
Freedom has a cost,
that’s why my life is lost.

Freedom is not free,
he said with his last breath.
Freedom is not free
I witnessed his death.

Freedom is not free
I said with a shout.
Freedom is not free
there can be no doubt.
