Die Kommunistischen Partei Chinas
ist seit der Machtergreifung im Jahr 1949 verantwortlich für den Tod
von 60-80 Millionen Chinesen. Anfang des Jahres 2007 ist die Zahl der
Menschen, die sich von der KPCh und ihren angeschlossenen
Organisationen lossagten, bereits auf 17,405,392 gestiegen. Das Lied
"Set Them Free" wurde geschrieben um auf einer großen Kundgebung beim
Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC im Juli 2005, welche diese Bewegung
unterstützt, aufgeführt zu werden. Im März 2006 wurde "Set Them Free"
für das beste "Lyric Writing" (das beste Textschreiben) auf dem 7.
alljährlichen Great American Song Wettbewerb eine Ehren-Auszeichnung
verliehen. Set Them Free (mp3)

I hear the chimes of freedom ring again
I heard them once before when they were blowin' in the wind
The Chinese people walk in chains, they're longing to be free
It's time to tell the world the truth about the CCP
I'd like to paint a picture in this song,
About what it's like in China if you practice Falun Gong,
Or if you are a Christian or you're for democracy
They'll put you in a prison cell and throw away the key.
Chorus:
Set them free! set them free! set them free! set them free!
Set them free! set them free! set them free! set them free!
The labor camps are like a living hell
Where you're beaten, starved and brainwashed and there's
nowhere to appeal
There is no law or justice, there is just the CCP
Who hide their evil deeds behind a cloak of secrecy.
The free world should stand up for liberty
But now we sell out human rights to buy a cheap TV,
We see slavery and torture and we turn our head aside
I'd rather spend a little more than pay for genocide.
The world will not forget the Berlin Wall
And how the people danced with joy, just to see it fall
The Chinese leaders shake with fear remembering
that day
They know their time is almost up and soon they'll
have to pay.
The blood red dragon can no longer fly
Nine swords have pierced its armor and it looks
about to die
Now millions of its members have renounced it publicly
The world will be a better place without the CCP.
