Tainted smile, upon the Eagle's feet he tries to sit

He boasts about his bravery, his greatness

But, her eyes see the oppression, those hurting and with a fighter's spirit she whispers: Resist

He believes he walks upon the light

He thinks his shadow never dims

But, Liberty sees his tarnished, corroded soul

And knows that hate never wins

Hate might seem like it triumphs, but only enjoys a cold feast

Evil might appear to ride in a chariot of gold

But, love is the true, conquering beast
