lyrics

FREEDOM FROM RELIGION

The government shall not consent to favor any faith establishment.
What you believe may be good for yourself.
But don’t force your religion on anyone else.

Everybody has freedom of choice and secularism is a growing voice.
No holy rituals to observe. No deities that you have to serve.

Oh Freedom from religion, oh freedom, we want our freedom.
Freedom from religion, in this nation, we need our freedom.

We live together in the land of the free and its okay if we disagree.
If you say America's a Christian place, expect to go to court and lose your case.

Oh Freedom from religion, oh freedom, we want our freedom.
Freedom from religion, in this nation, we need our freedom.

Religious freedom is what makes us great.
We can coexist in a secular state.
But don’t push religion on some of us,
because freedom of also means freedom from.

The laws of the land say to separate,
the things of the church from the things of the state.
Our founding fathers made the right call,
Mr. Jefferson we hold up that wall.

Oh Freedom from religion, oh freedom, we want our freedom.
Freedom from religion, in this nation, we need our freedom.

Oh Freedom from religion, oh freedom, we want our freedom.
Freedom from religion, in this nation, we want our freedom.

Oh Freedom from religion, oh freedom, we want our freedom.
Oh Freedom from religion, in this nation, we need our freedom.
