A fight to end all Wars

We must never give up

We must never back down

War has never been about appeasement

It has only been about aggression

About power and devouring the weak

It has never been about building up

Detouring conflict and strengthening ties and bonds

We must meet those who start these derision

And we must all come together

As one mighty host in defiance

and in rebuke of their directives

because when the world united that is something

something that cannot be defeated easily

Our pursuit is never in vain

Our purpose is never in vain

War is vain but liberty is just

Liberty is equal and right

Liberty is for everyone and peace

Liberty never perishes but prevails

The on-slaughter shall never win

in every heartbeat and free thought is the reins of liberty

And it will be set free one day.
