"They’ve come now to drag you’re heart down.
They’re one with the fool in the crown.
Their words are born of bile,
A swamp of lies so vile,
Flooding justice ‘till it’s drowned."

lyrics

"TAKE HEART, TAKE HOLD" by David Guilbault

There is a place I won’t go.
It’s deep down and full of dark souls. It’s a hell of hate,
Where they can denigrate.
It’s a crowded, wretched hole.

They’ve come now to drag you’re heart down.
They’re one with the fool in the crown.
Their words are born of bile,
A swamp of lies so vile,
Flooding justice ‘till it’s drowned.

Don’t cry in the night. Don’t shy from the fright.
Take heart. Take hold.

Their legions grow louder with fear.
Their victimized violence draws near.
They’re a force that’s strong,
With weapons fierce and wrong,
Drawn to slay all that is dear.

Don’t suffer alone. Don’t sadly bemoan.
Take heart. Take hold.

Take heart. We’ll turn this around.
Take hold. We’ll stand on our ground.
Where there’s right, there’s might.
You’ve got to join this fight.
This is where we must be bound.
We’ve got to take the higher ground

Take heart. Take hold.
