  • Find a dream, make it real
    Speak your heart, do what you feel
    Say your peace, free your mind
    Seek the truth, go rise and shine
    Break the rules, test your faith
    Trust your soul, and lead the way
    Lose yourself, yeah just go wild

    Don't let them take your freedom, child
    Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
    Don't show them hate, hate, hate will feed them, child
    Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
    Just show them love, love, love will free them
    Oh, only love, love, love will free them
    Oh, only love, love can defeat them

    Hold your ground, make your name
    Love your life, just feel no shame
    Earn your stripes, do your bit
    Try your luck, just know your shit
    Face your fears with a smile

    Don't let them take your freedom, child
    Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
    Don't show them hate, hate, hate will feed them, child
    Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
    Just show them love, love, love will free them
    Oh, only love, love, love will free them
    Oh, only love, love can defeat them

    Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance so
    If we don't, don't take a stance, oh
    Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance so
    If we don't, don't take a stance, oh

    Put a flower on the top of a gun
    Put confetti in an atomic bomb, yeah
    It's time to change now, we've seen enough
    Instead of war, we're declaring love, yeah
    Put a flower on the top of a gun
    Put confetti in an atomic bomb, yeah
    It's time to change now, we've seen enough
    Instead of war, we're declaring love, yeah

    Freedom child
    Oh, only love, love, love will free them
    Oh, only love, love can defeat them

    Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance so
    If we don't, don't take a stance, oh
    Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance so
    If we don't, don't take a stance, oh Writer/s: Daniel John O'Donoghue, James Barry, Mark Anthony Sheehan
