Today's a day for retribution
 This all ends here
 Now is the time [bad word] to the changes
 That are needed to survive

 Look around and see what's missing
 Nothing's as it used to be
 Smoldering beneath the wreckage
 Of a life of atrocity

 Faced with the choice of fighting
 For lost sense of worth
 Or conceding to failure
 Accepting the fate of the world created

 Must hardships prevail
 Over strength of will
 Can virtue be found
 When all seems lost

 There is hope begging to flourish
 Should the right words be spoken
 [bad word] 
 Embrace the ones who love
 Don't turn and walk away
 Salvation lies within
 If the heart is open

 Only shadows await for those who
 Forfeit the right to break free

 All have lost their way
 Lost sight of reality
 It's hope you cope 
 That speaks to ones [bad word] self
