A death sentence – 2 – v2

The Sanctity of life, existence,
for this good and noble people,
standing against the tyrant,
the oppressor, his evil, his lust…
 
A death sentence, destruction,
that is what you offer, a false peace,
land for peace a canard, a lie,
an existential threat…
 
Self-determination, freedom,
the rights of this brave people,
we must be in the vanguard,
of what is good, right, and just…
 
A death sentence, appeasement,
acquiescing to terror, to genocide,
selling the souls of this noble people,
to sin, to darkness, to death…
 
The restoration of hope, peace,
freedom for these people, now,
that must be our position,
our righteous call…
