🍞 Loaves of Liberty

🍞 Loaves of Liberty

Lyrics (with annotations):

[Intro – Spoken, fiery tone]
"Fresh from the oven, hot from the heart…
Northern Ontario rises — we will not be left to crumble!"

[Verse 1 – Smooth but biting]
They butter us up in Queen’s Park halls,
Slice our towns thin while the south takes it all,
We’re kneaded together, strong and alive,
Flour in our veins, this bread will rise.

[Chorus – Anthemic, bold, crowd-chant energy]
Loaves of liberty, break these chains,
Northern soul won’t starve in vain.
We’ve been toasted, roasted, left behind —
Now we’re rising, one crust, one mind!

[Verse 2 – Feisty, revolutionary vibe]
From Thunder Bay down to Red Lake streets,
We carry the struggle, we bring the heat.
Sioux Lookout, Sudbury, Timmins cry,
The breadline’s long, but we’ll reach the sky.

[Chorus – Repeat with power]
Loaves of liberty, break these chains,
Northern soul won’t starve in vain.
We’ve been toasted, roasted, left behind —
Now we’re rising, one crust, one mind!

[Bridge – Fierce, playful bread rebellion tone]
They call us crumbs, but we’re a feast,
We’re buttered on both sides — yet never ceased.
The oven’s burning, the people shout,
Northern autonomy — let’s break out!

[Chorus – Final, triumphant shout with echoes]
Loaves of liberty, break these chains,
Northern soul won’t starve in vain.
We’ve been toasted, roasted, left behind —
Now we’re rising, one crust, one mind!

[Outro – Spoken, with grit]
"The South may try to take our slice,
But this bread is ours — and it’s baked with fire."
