This blood runs rich with vigor
A passion that fuels from the core
A voice that will travel for miles
Stretching from sea to shore
My intentions are without question
My mountain to climb– the world
No exceptions, no deflections, I shoot for the stars and the moon
My destiny to be realized soon
I shall soar through heavens and Earth
Bear the burden of all that are cursed
I shall free them in fleet and flight
An extraordinary reminder that some will still fight!
For better days, for magnificent ways, for a dying man that prays
Not because I am holy, not because I am blessed, but because I believe!
Will you not follow the force of fury blazing into battle?
Will you not save the cursed, simply by joining in my shadow?
It will be me who suffers unimaginable pain
It will be my heart, soul and blood they wish to drain
Yet here I stand, and triumph I determinately seek
Blessed are the meek, but tomorrow they may find death in their sleep
If today, we do not take a stand
Our land is ours only if we insist
Reflect over all the truly inspiring moments you have missed
Because of the details you have watched your world slip away
But today with a single act of courage it will be yours to stay!
Rise! Rise to your feet and stare into the depth of darkness that lies in the enemy’s eyes
Be not afraid, I absolve you of your fears
Embrace the power and beauty of the unity of noble souls
Standing together, before the world, accepting nothing short of a revolution!
The power is ours, our guide the stars, dare to fail a friend of passion
This moment is one you’ll recall for eternity
The moment you took control of your fate
With open arms and clenched fists for goodness sake!
Fight for those who can only pray
Fight for life, if just for one more day
Fight with me
Fight to be free
Fight and alas see how glorious being an inspiration can be.
