Raised In Victory / Razed In Defeat

Air raid sirens blare

Tracers fill the air

Explosions all around

Deafening the sound

White-knuckled on the gun

Civilians on the run

Mired in defeat, raised on resentment

The enemy to face is not one you know

Chaotic carpet bombing, use up munitions

True genocide, death to all below

Death from above instills the living nightmare

Indiscriminate slayings, anything that moves

The horror of passage a full-speed race

Every act a gamble, odds is you lose

War drums beating on, no more salvation

Cities leveled flat, incurring mass starvation

Buildings targeted, reduced to rubble

Hidden armor column emits no trouble

Countless armaments to wipe away dissent

Infinite bombs will fly, time to say goodbye

Raised in victory, razed in defeat

Shattered glass everywhere

To journey outside, don't dare

Debris from structures fall down

Spheres of influence drown

Pushing conflict to sell

Weapons forged from hell

The apex attained the height of escalation

Typhoon of slaughter the blitzkrieg still goes

Sporadic missile fire launched from the battery

When a bargain returns none of us knows

Diplomatic attempts seem like a struggle

Testing the waters to see who will buckle

Strengthen your hand with dead bodies to see

Pose a solution to bow down and take a knee
