Never Again: Flames of Defiance

War, yet another war. What a bore. I bet you abhor The lore. Another humanitarian crisis Against those who thought they were righteous. Their lies spread like a virus Creating another Isis Iran is now up in flames Screaming out the names Of those who created these war games. “Ready, fire, take aim!” “It was all for the fuel.” They bombed a school Breaking international rule. Now who’s the fool? Crimes against humanity Oh, the insanity. Fighting for the end of Christianity Is their ultimate reality. “Let’s blame the Jewish.” Said the Ayatollah, so foolish. His extremist thoughts most ghoulish. And his ruling, well, ruthless. But as the artillery falls We hear the call. And many of us stand tall Against it all. Love is the only light Which is why we fight. Deep into the night Because we know we are right. Weep, for honor those lost, They still chose to pay the cost. And we will no longer be double-crossed Or once again become exhaust! Never again. You call our vow a sin. But now our fight begins, Am Yisrael chai; we’ll always win. When the smoke clears Our enemies will only be left fear. Because our fight will not last years Or leave us in endless tears. Surrender now Because you will bow. I’ll never tell you how. But, WOW!!!!!
