Story behind the song
I knew I wanted to write this song. I spent a couple of years mulling over the idea. Sat down one day and had it finished almost instantly.
Lyrics
Freedom Tastes Like Honey Freedom tastes like honey why would you spit it out? Would you give it up for money? How bout political clout? Would you give it up for security in the face of a rising storm? Or would you face the danger, trade in your anger Unite and become one. If we never knew the taste of freedom we would still instinctively know Our souls would yearn to be our own, our minds would yearn to grow I'd hate that you were trodden down, locked up if you should shout Freedom tastes like honey, why would you spit it out? Freedom tastes like honey, melts across my tongue When it's gone, it wont linger on, a bitter taste begun Would you give it up for the medical bill or a way to shut me down? Or would you pay your way? Maybe learn to say Neighbor I'll help you out If we never knew the taste of freedom, we would still instinctively know Our souls would yearn to be our own, our minds would yearn to grow You'd hate that I was trodden down, locked up if I should shout Freedom tastes like honey, why would we spit it out? Oh say can you see by the dawns early light Freedom, freedom, watch it slippin away Freedom, freedom, a little more each day Get off your butt right now, Make a pledge, make a vow Call up your political hack Tell em you're not buying their smack Freedom, freedom, watch it slippin away Freedom, freedom, a little more each day Impeach some over reaching judge Their wrong and their not gonna budge Tell Congress you want justice back Our Constitution's under attack Freedom, freedom, you gotta hear me, I say Freedom, freedom, it's being taken away Don't let them kick your neighbor off his land This is where we gotta make a stand The stewards of this land are Mom and Pop The government couldnt run a soda shop. Freedom, freedom, watch it slippin away Freedom, freedom, a little more each day So you say I want a revolution I say you need to pay attention Freedom is worth fighting for For freedom men have gone to war Freedom, freedom, watch it slippin away Freedom, freedom, a little more each day
