Altar of Blood

A plague arising, castrates our future
and balkanize the country
A destiny raped,  
strives to become a country
A citizen hungry, dazed
in Limbo, chained in hardship
A government lost, arrogant!
Ranting shame
A brute arising, persecute Democracy
with falsehood and nepotism
A Tyrant beat multitudes,
with blows of fear and war looming
A people dividing, seek redemption
on the Altar of Blood
