Pandemic Verses #32 — The Battle Will Come to You

You have chained us in this land
You don’t want us to be free
This time it will not stand
He died under your knee

You have kept us in a cage
The time for waiting’s through
Now is the time for rage
The battle will come to you

We fill most of your prisons
We die in wars for you
We live beside your poisons
The battle will come to you

This has gone on too long
You knew what you should do
We now are millions strong
The battle will come to you

It is time to choose a side
We will do what we must do
You have no place to hide
The battle will come to you

We would rather you were with us
This is your struggle too
You do not need to march
The battle will come to you

On a bright clear day in May
It was there for all see
It has always been this way
But will no longer be

The last to die under your knee
