The Difference…

They come by plane and ship; open and proud
They come laughing and smoking
Singing and high

You come by cover of darkness
Through peril and strife
You hear that you are needed and you respond

They come like kings to rule over what they see
They come to deliver what they want to whom they want
Never can they be wrong

You come to deliver justice
Nothing for you
Your lives for those who you don’t know
For a Lord you have never seen

They bring wine and filth
They bring fancy planes, big tanks and numbers

You bring the book that will fit in your pocket
It’s your map, your light and your comfort
You wear two faces
One for your enemy
One for your Lord

Their arrogance can be smelt from miles
Time is not their friend so they must butcher and butcher fast
For the pound they love is being eaten fast

You have nothing but patience
You will bed in for a long night
Sleeping under the stars
Rocks as pillows and a coat to cover

They cannot wait to leave, cursing the day they came
Marking their escape on calendars and walls

You have waited so long to enter, never letting anything stand in your way.
Route after route closed but you find your way

They bomb from up high
Men, women or children it makes no difference
Their colour the same
They were all judged and found guilty

Your arrows reach their mark
How could they not when guided by the prayers of the innocent?
Better to spare the guilty then harm the innocent you believe

If they return they never wish to come back
They can never be the same again
Their conscience screaming at them

You will be restless also
Waiting for the day when you will return
Waiting to be with brothers so humble

They will have the best of treatment
Compensation and pensions
Warm beds and many pills

You have a desire
You have a destiny
You have what was promised to you

They rush to their graves
While you run to the Hoors

They to their destruction
You to your scented end…
