One Against the World

Lonely in righteousness you pray the truth reveal
but forces greater of all might combine against you for the kill
With faith you fight the gallant fight and falsehoods are revealed
but forces laugh and mock you down dismissive for the kill
If no one looks will they see, if no one listens will they hear
but you are not alone as millions of prayers bare
Despite the odds of greater might the common continue the fight 
the mighty in lusty arrogance with foolishness they spite
The common will not lose for then their world would end
despicable and insane the mighty condemn them
It's over, get over it, we must punish them all
the mighty rant boisterous before the mighty fall
Time is precious time is dear, fight the mighty without fear
win one battle see the dominos fall and the common cheer
Keep your faith, for 2020 has been bizarre but even more
if the mighty steal this day we will roar back in 2024
