A World Held At Ransom

When innocence no longer knows fear
the rivers of earth will unleash a baptism, 
as anger fades with their ancestors genes 
souls of the Guf will forevermore fly free 

Evils are blinding the light of humanity 
spotting the gaze of the troubled 
stealing the hearts of the lost,
a graver threat now revolutionizes war 

We've only one chance to save our world
do not waste it with greed and envys lies, 
now with connections made planet wide 
the danger has never been more imminent

Turn every first contact into one of love 
you will never find a stronger bind, 
touch the water flowing on wails of grief
know their pain, believe it until death 

Let justice rise her heavenly sword 
lowering it onto the nape of the wicked, 
and eternally let truth be your shield 
no greater protection exists on earth 

Find peace in a seeded blade of grass 
know a communion of humanity in a sunrise, as the federation of angels arrives, know, 
they come in peace but prepared for war. 

Balanced on a blackening precipice 
in these moments a choice is made, 
that commitment will lead the world 
into a platinum age of peaceful bliss
