They say war is never a choice,
They say war solely destroys,
I say, sure, in the lives
you carry on, with no pain or strife,
Be a jew, or a pole
Or a worker of the soviet state
And knowing nazis dug a deep hole
For your whole people, to bury and cremate
Poles waged a struggle, Warsaw tells a tale
(Warsaw uprising 1944)
The red army, through blood they prevail
And the Jews, the "worst" of all,
From France to Ukraine, their bravery recalled
But would you say " We will not fight, Let them come
Let them gas me, my dad and mum?"
They say war is pure nonsense
They say war benefits none,
I say, well, the fact you're here
and you family and friends are all there,
Amidst all past crusades, famines and wars,
Amidst all we read and abhorred
Do you think your forefather
Made it alive saying "Bloodshed has no honor"?
History is a tale of genocides
Where the one survived, was the strongest side,
If that makes men devil, that's quite okay
For when push comes to shove, ends the word play,
Humans would rather be alive being demonic
Than die without fight, in hopes of being called angelic,
(This work doesn't exist to Justify war as GOOD. It exists to justify wars as a NECESSARY EVIL)
