What are some of the most compelling pieces you've seen written in defence of free will?

I'm looking for an argument against
>humans are slaves unto their biology and environment
Which feels incomplete and misguided, almost like an atheist form of Calvinism.

Unverifiable certainty. No one has yet lived my mind, nor can those automatons of pure hubris. Certainty is attainable only through a force which is grown and advanced by solphoism and contrarianism, perpetuating the concept of free to seem without entanglement during aesthetic flux, or famously speaking, garrulousness for the sake of beastliness on debt of one bull for the collseum. I haven't a clue, but an ass, yes, oh an ass. The concealed dragon upon an ass, oh my.
