To prepare for peace Is to prepare for war It was not I that declared this war It was life that thrust this upon me And I will not leave that insult unanswered Men! Today we move forward with the weight of our forefathers at our backs Today we move forward with no regrets, no shame and no mercy! Today will be unlike any day that has come before or that shall come after it “Today, my mothers and fathers Sons and daughters Sisters, brothers— We go to war!” There will be no mercy, there will be no quarter For to quit is to cease to be Now is the time, now is the place You are it! There will be no reinforcements (Beat pause) Nobody is coming for us You are the last bastion between Your hopes and dreams And the reality in which we've found ourselves in So I'll ask you one last time! Will you let them take this from us!? Or will you preserve our honor and values For the next generation until death does us part!?
