The Brigade
A fight to end all Wars
We must never give up
We must never back down
War has never been about appeasement
It has only been about aggression
About power and devouring the weak
It has never been about building up
Detouring conflict and strengthening ties and bonds
We must meet those who start these derision
And we must all come together
As one mighty host in defiance
and in rebuke of their directives
because when the world united that is something
something that cannot be defeated easily
Our pursuit is never in vain
Our purpose is never in vain
War is vain but liberty is just
Liberty is equal and right
Liberty is for everyone and peace
Liberty never perishes but prevails
The on-slaughter shall never win
in every heartbeat and free thought is the reins of liberty
And it will be set free one day.
