21 years gone (21 years gone)
Getting hard to stay strong (getting hard to stay strong)
Took away his dignity
Should he wait so long?
Banished in this endless darkness
Evil holding the chains
Body's screaming, mind is aching
Freedom runs through his veins
You can't kill him
Guilty, guilty as charged
Guilty, guilty as charged
Locked inside a rusty cage (locked inside a rusty cage)
Took away his legacy (took away his legacy)
Taken by the military
In a war they wage
You know they'll never let him go
You gotta let him go
You know they'll never let him go
So come and tell me now
Are you so deaf you can't hear him scream at night?
The world is waiting for his freedom
Are you so blind that the truth is in the fight?
What did he do to make him
Guilty, guilty as charged
Guilty, guilty as charged
He'll never get out, get out alive
But he's gotta survive
Never losing the pain in his head
He might as well be dead
He'll never get out, get out alive
But he's gotta survive
Never losing the pain in his head
He might as well be dead
