Freewill
Composer(s): Geddy Lee;

Performer(s): Rush;
and various other artists



There are those who think 
that life has nothing left to chance
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance
A planet of playthings
We dance on the strings 
Of powers we cannot perceive 
"The stars aren't aligned 
Or the gods are malign" 
Blame is better to give than receive
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose Free Will
There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand
The cards were stacked against them - they weren't born in Lotus-Land
All preordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate
Kicked in the face
You can't pray for a place 
In Heaven's unearthly estate
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose Free Will
Each of us
A cell of awareness
Imperfect and incomplete
Genetic blends 
With uncertain ends 
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet
