As a music teacher, I have had the privilege of introducing my students to a wide variety of songs from different genres and eras. One song that has always stood out to me is “Freedom Song” by Thin Lizzy. I remember stumbling upon this powerful piece of music at a friend’s house, and from the moment I heard it, I was captivated by its raw emotion and thought-provoking lyrics.

</span><span style="color:#323232;">He believed in the God and the glory
</span><span style="color:#323232;">But he just wasn't tough enough
</span><span style="color:#323232;">

</span><span style="color:#323232;">I believe in the freedom song
</span><span style="color:#323232;">But I'll choose my own destiny
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Well, they took him and they beat him
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Underneath that old hanging tree
