Benevolence Incarnate

(Spoken Word)
And so they came forth, from a land too good and pure for this realm, willing to tolerate and sacrifice all, so that we may know countless virtues, like loyalty and respect
Through our failings and loses, their benevolence and forgiveness knows no bounds, every circumstance offering new opportunities to learn and better ourselves from their example
(1st Verse)
Honour, power, glory, pride
The lustings of man that bur deep down inside
Hatred, anger, anguish, greed
The reasons we use to take more than we need
Every single moment in time
Should be used to enrich, not destroy all mankind
Precious are these moments which
Are used to develop and not to bewitch
(Pre-chorus)
I cannot see
Through the hate surrounding me
We can all learn
From those who express concern
(Chorus)
Look around and you will find
The peace and harmony enshrined
In noble creatures large and small
Willing to serve each beck and call
Each and every single day
Upon our fellow man we pray
When right besides us day and night
Benevolence is burning bright
Victory is all around us
If we’d just see
(Air-raid Siren Scream)
(Spoken Word)
Every day, they are prepared to guide us and show us the errors of our ways, unwavering in their patience and spirit, willing to fight the war of attrition against our demons
As strong and courageous as they maybe, they too can be victims of our malice and scorn, cast aside to suffer without rhyme or reason, but still they soldier on in spite of this, never faulting in their purpose
(2nd Verse)
Mayhem, violence, destruction and death
Chaos consumes us and steals our last breath
Peace, purpose, effort, respect
The things that we need to our lives resurrect
Forsaking a life everyone does deserve
With corruption eroding our will to preserve
With man’s best friend serving as guiding light
We all have a way to achieve what is right

Hallowed Land

(1st Verse)
Oppression exists all around us
In places it cannot be seen
As well as in homes and in families
So to as in governments’ greed
The world’s full of dangerous people
Who wish to exploit and abuse
With money and power and wills made of steel
They hope to confound and confuse
We cannot survive unless we fight to be free
The battles will be unrelenting
The cost on our souls will be high
Our resources they are but finite
While their onslaught could drive us to die
We fight for a cause that is righteous
We fight for a cause that is just
We fight for a cause that makes each human free
And pummels resistance to dust
Every single conquest is a great victory
(Pre-chorus)
We
Will not depend
On those who
Lie and pretend
We
Will stand strong
Against those
Who do wrong
(Chorus)
We shall stand
On this hallowed land
And fight for those who
Share our just world view
And demolish those
Who good and right oppose
Through every wind and bend
Until the bitter end
(2nd Verse)
In moments our will may desert us
And the burden seems too great to bear
The battle may sway in their favour
And the strongest of us may despair
But with every trial and challenge
Comes chances to rise up a new
To fight for the things we believe in
Not just for a chosen few
In the end we’ll wake up to our true destiny
