They Kept On Coming

Marching on, their heads held high

Truth and passion seemed to guide their path

A force so powerful, no one could deny

All injustice wavered against their wrath

 

Some were turned by corruption

Others bled, but would always continue battling

Going forward with courage, despite being ashen

No matter what we did, they kept on coming

 

So many times had we destroyed their dreams

They crumbled and shattered into pieces

They had fallen, yet their hope would still gleam

Their flame of war and righteousness never ceased

 

In the darkest of times they glowed

No matter the enemy, they showed

Blood behind them, even if they were crying

They would just keep on coming

 

A million times we will fall

Every time we will stand tall

The honest beckon at our call

For freedom, we will fight even if we must crawl
