Ukraine, Dare We Compare

“Ukraine, Dare We Compare”

Dare we compare?
Does history tell?
Must we remind those 
Who reek of Hell?

900 days---- 

The siege of Leningrad,
Over 1.5 million starved, frozen or killed.
Is this your legacy?
The blood on your hands 
Runs cold.  
Yours to behold.

Who was the man
Who struck such hell?
Brought purgatory 
To your shores.
Must we remind?

Are you different?
The man you aspire to be?
100,000 marching on Kyiv. 
For what? 

Make ready your sabers Boys.
Make ready your sabers.

You don’t give a s...t
Those you kill
Those you starve
Dead children in the streets
Old men and women
You wish to kill them all

Is there another word for your insanity?
Make ready your sabers Boys.
Make ready your sabers.

They will come
From the far corners
Of the earth.
Freedom fighters.
One million strong,
They will come.
Make ready your sabers Boys.
Make ready your sabers.

Turn the tide you sinful man,
Turn the tide,
Before “YOUR” blood runs cold.

Gaze upon your face
In your crystal ball.
See who you see.
See what happens to thee.

History tells all.
It’s coming for you.
Make ready your sabers Boys.
Make ready your sabers.

Your peoples long endured
That siege;
Those 900 days. 
You think it not the same?

Turn the page you sinful man.
Turn the page,
Before your blood runs cold.

Make ready your sabers Boys.
Make ready your sabers.
You have a job to do. 
Dare We Compare?
I prophesize this for thee.
