Analysis of The Government



They say we have freedom?
To do as we please yet
lock us away for being on
our kness the right to choice
to religion to life that's what
they say but they roll the dice
they stand alone look down and
stare they say it's for us
but they don't care fighting
for freedom for people's rights
up there in government who wears
the rights.Where are the women
taking their stand.I think it
is so worring for women to have a
abortions.
