Story behind the song
Trev shared these timely lyrics with me. I added guitar and as it turned out lead vocal. Trev added ethereal harmonies and I slipped in a dobro solo
Lyrics
i draw whats on my mind i’ll say just what i please the word gives us freedom that is why we bleed if your offended, do you really understand are you looking at it properly or are you another with murder planned je suis Charlie je suis Charlie you act with your violence to silence the word to strangle our right to the freedom to be heard that is just absurd your success is your failure as your acts deplore the world your nothing but the murderer and your message will not be heard je suis Charlie je suis Charlie massacre and mayhem you have brought it to us all to try to turn us against our brothers this is not religion at all power is your struggle why can't you use the word like the teenager with the rifle your message will not be heard je suis Charlie je suis Charlie Solo I draw whats on my mind i’ll say just what i please the word gives us freedom that is why we bleed if your offended, do you really understand are you looking at it properly or are you another with murder planned je suis Charlie je suis Charlie je suis Charlie je suis Charlie
