The Supreme Sacrifice

All my days in preparation for this
Time stands still at my day of reckoning, put to the test
It’s all or nothing now
Endless possibilities, one outcome
Rolling the dice like so many times before, any roll could be my last
Landscapes burning, ash and cinder
Crying, screaming, burns my eyes
Day in, day out, routine chaos, daily view of blackened skies
Screaming, fleeing, pushing past me
Plant my feet and stand my ground
Once again I’m called upon to face the terror, duty bound
Eye of the storm is where you’ll find me, my conscience binds me
Sworn to an oath, my brother’s decree
Honor defines me
Front of the line is where you’ll find me, my conscience binds me
Sworn to an oath, my brother’s decree
Supreme sacrifice
Supreme sacrifice, the highest price that one can pay
With your life, an immortal currency
This was your path, chosen of your own freewill
Those left behind have grown stronger through your bravery
Supreme sacrifice
Silence of your absence echoes louder into a deafening roar
Impact of your actions felt by thousands beyond the concrete empire
Eye of the storm is where you’ll find me, my conscience binds me
Sworn to an oath, my brother’s decree
Honor defines me
Front of the line is where you’ll find me, my conscience binds me
Sworn to an oath, my brother’s decree
