LamentationsA Poem by drcorneliusWritten as a songYou got freedom to choose You win or you lose Don’t be singing the blues Time to pay up your dues You can follow the leader Don’t give it a thought Or make your own way Neither sold nor bought You can follow your preacher Fear of going to hell Or shine your own light Ring your own bell ‘Cause you got freedom to choose You win or you lose Don’t be singing the blues Time to pay up your dues Let words on some paper Tell you what’s wrong or right Or make your own life Fight your own fight Listen to the crowd Just do what they do Or do your own thinking Then follow on through We are condemned to choose We don’t have a choice To be lost in the choir Or to sing our own voice You got freedom to choose You win or you lose Don’t be singing the blues Time to pay up your dues © 2018 drcornelius |
