A right to wake
A right to rest
A right not to know
A right to know best
*
We choose our clothes
But not our kin
We can choose our goals
But not if we’ll win
*
Free will is ours
Or so we thought
For when death comes near
Our will is for naught
*
Decisions fall hard
On those close by
To cling on to hope
Or to let you die
*
We choose our path
But not it’s end
We can choose to stay
But not to ascend
*
A right to live
A right to die
A right not to ask
A right to ask why
*
