For Power - Affiance

What shield guards the heart is not estranged to hate.

What armor shields the

Arms that aren’t ashamed to take.

Once you let greed inside you push virtue

Aside.

Cause everything has a price and there is nothing they can’t buy.

Still

You raise your cup and drink to the blood on the market.

And if a beast shows

His teeth, he will feast on the weak.

Clever men hack at the trunk with brides

And ploys.

To sever men at the stem, to destroy them.

Still you raise your cup

And drink to the blood on the market.

And if a beast shows his teeth, he will

Feast on the weak.

Your charade is a patriot’s campaign.

You distract men with

Crusades.

You persuade us with parades.

Only war is your gain.

You were

Supposed to lead us.

Why did you lead us astray?

Was this in your design, to

Lead us to the mass grave?
