Freedom Roulette is a song I wrote and recorded in only a day and a half, mainly because I was afraid I'd lose the feelings that were driving its creation. I simply HAD to finish it right then, or else, I feared I never would. It's essentially a musical rant about how in my country, there seems to be a trend with elected officials, in which they turn their back on their oath to uphold the rights of the citizens, and instead sell themselves to corporations and shady government agencies that use them to achieve their own agendas. And as this trend keeps intensifying, you are essentially playing a game of Roulette every time you elect someone into office, you never know which freedom might be the next to be abolished.
