It’s a free world , isn’t it?
A free world indeed!
Then let him talk that craves freedom
All I preach is bounds.
Freedom corrupts!
Oh, sweet taste of freedom
The taste of freedom the taste of sugar
The taste of sugar the taste of pile
Bounds!
Check the burden of freedom
On that sick head
That talks at will and acts at will
Ask him that’s free to drink
What he finds in the gutters
Or what attracts in folly
My neighbour’s freedom to talk
Earned him a swollen face
The lady that boasts of freedom
Will soon be found a whore
With the freedom to take
The “thieftancy” title becomes extinct
Think of the burden of freedom

"With the freedom to take the 'thieftancy' title becomes extinct"- Is there no contradiction here? 'Thieftancy' title thrives in an unguarded millieu, where there is enough freedom to give and take.
NB: In absolute term though, nothing/nobody is free. There is a bound/limitation in nature.
If you have freedom to take, that means you can take anybody's property without the person's consent. Whereas, stealing is perceived to have occurred when you take someone's property without his/her consent.
So freedom to take will definitely negate the "thiftancy" title that most of our leaders have these days.
Well, like I commented earlier, there is an unwritten law in nature which abhors absolute freedom.
No matter how hard we crave freedom, we will still end up within the ambit of the natural law which regulate things.
So, bound, we are.
