Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHGIJKL MNLOPQRS TRUVVWOXYZ A2B2C2D2E2F2G2H2YH2 I2TJ2F2SSK2F2At last the day of reckoning | A |
For denial of the truth | B |
Lay in broken bones to be | C |
As the weary light soon soothes | D |
Itself to sleep and take rest | E |
- | |
Then the blazing eyes spark hope | F |
In the birthing ember flames | G |
Of torches in your hands | H |
And red murk in your heart and claims | G |
That makes the feet atop the land | I |
Stomp like sounding beasts | J |
Lusting over blood to spill | K |
And fill their greed to full | L |
- | |
You lay us near the stand of wood | M |
Chain our limbs rope our backs | N |
Bend our wills no push nor pull | L |
Only smite upon the innocent | O |
Life that do wish | P |
To free themselves from bondage | Q |
Unlike the thought you hide | R |
Not unlike the hoarding avarice | S |
- | |
But be that as it may | T |
No fears left no pride | R |
Only anger and vengeance | U |
With tears like a river | V |
No more shock to quiver | V |
From and to back down | W |
Is a choice testament | O |
To the wise strategist | X |
And the crestfallen | Y |
However we retaliate | Z |
- | |
Our bravery awaits the dawn | A2 |
For our spirit has grown | B2 |
You took to the streets | C2 |
And left us pilloried | D2 |
Breathing in defeat | E2 |
Now listen to our voices | F2 |
We have done nothing wrong | G2 |
Go ahead throw your stones | H2 |
Leave us with broken | Y |
Cracked and shattered bones | H2 |
- | |
But when the deeds end | I2 |
Sounds of hearsay | T |
Shall hit the ears of earth | J2 |
As the sun rises | F2 |
The moon is not your witness | S |
For the truth shall resurface | S |
And our faces shall be seen | K2 |
In dreams in guilt in glowing ashes | F2 |
