In the aftermath
Of their surprise attack
I have many questions
Running around my head
How did they find us so easily,
When they assured us they’d keep us safe?
Why did they taunt us,
Attacking just the outskirts,
Trapping us in like some kind of game?
When we first arrived here I witnessed
Confidence in our race
But now all I see
Is uncertainty on their face
The air is thick with doubt
Nobody’s willing to shout
That fire’s been put out
We can’t just heave a sigh
Roll over and die
That’s not what we’re about
We need to form a plan
Make a stand
We can’t just let these things
Take our home
We’ve hidden away
Like easy prey
For way to long
It’s up to us
To spill their blood
To save the innocent
And the frail
We’ll take some hits
There’s no avoiding it
But god knows
We cannot fail
We’ll hold our heads up high
Die with our pride
Before they’ll see us cry
We’ll fight them with our hearts
Show them who we are
What we’re really made of inside
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them together
With our hearts and our minds united
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds united
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds we’ll beat them as one
With our hearts and our minds
What are you waiting for?
Don’t stop now
Apologies sir, that’s all we have
But I still don’t know who betrayed me
Find me the rest of those files
Sir……..
