Freedom? Its not a poem about freedom, lest it be freedom of ones own soul. The poem acknowledges the many things that stand in someones way, that one can be beaten down to the ground, bloody and forsaken, but none of that, no action anyone can take against you can affect you where it matters, in your soul, unless you let it. In that way, your soul if free of the oppression your body might be subjected to, and you are free to live by your own standards, despite the circumstances. Similarly, if your convictions clash harshly enough with those around you, you would be free to die with honor, still free of the tyranny that tried to conquer you.
