1.
A child, alone, under the bitter unforgiving night
Sending down pure white snow to settle on land
Upon contact becoming crimson from blood trite
He is drenched with it, it will be wherever he stands
The boy enters the remains of a ruined home
Burnt and covered with ash and soot
Only one memorial, a blood-soaked tome
He blinks and it becomes a graveyard, the truth
2.
It’s time to open your eyes
We can’t wait for the sun to rise
Trapped within an endless night
Make your stand and fight
Oh they can offer you a legion of lies
Against the evils to which they have ties
Continuing our legacy of eternal war
Hiding the truth of the countless lives they’ve all tore
Blood remains the same on either ground
Leaving the suffering no chance to make a sound
As they preach about change, while still being resolute
Regardless of the gun, a bullet will shoot
Now, it’s time for us to fight back
Grab our pens and though ammo we lack
Armed with truth to crush lies in the way
Setting our foot down and paving a new day
Send out our words all marching together as we lengthen the struggle to create between us a sense of humanity
Let the old become aflame and from the dying embers etch in a new chapter of hopeful peace not fearless war
Taking the future within our own hands, giving us our chance to craft a new destiny
All of us have a decision, each one affecting everyone, will you join the pride and let out your roar?
