Soldiers for the cause
As sure as there are shadows that lurk within the night, we are the more determined to stand for what is right. - To run is not an option that we will entertain, for cowards never finish and losers never gain. - With eyes toward tomorrow and weapon in our hand, we take the place that others before us dared to stand. - And with a faith that's certain we don't intend to give, into the hands refuting the right we have to live. - As sure as there are shadows still lurking in the night, you can wager all you have we do intend to fight. - We are soldiers for the cause that being we believe, in standing firm against those who dare to but deceive.
