2020/08/27 ~ Military Conquest
Cheyenne Seaman 2003 (Philadelphia)
Military conquest,
Who's best of the best?
Battles for power
At every hour,
Behind enemy lines
You're running out of time.
Hold your rifle true and steady,
The situation may be deadly.
War, 'tis never a pretty thing,
Yet in politics 'tis only a game that's cruel and mean.
Peace, in truth, is what we need,
That and a leader who in peace can lead.
