Valley of Darkness
I
Grab them by the eyes,
For seeing is believing.
One cannot conceive
A color they have never seen.
So show them.
Show them the rainbows behind their eyes
Show them everything unknown
Show them,
And they will believe
Grab them by the hearts,
For we see what we want to believe.
So give it to them.
Don’t give them riches or things.
Give them the truth.
Give it to them,
And they will believe.
Lead your men,
From darkness to darkness,
Navigate the rivers and seas,
Penetrate deeper into the unknown.
Lead your men,
To far away lands,
To unfathomable riches,
To death.

II
Charge inward,
Descend upon the valley of death,
Descend upon the sinful.
Surround yourself,
With death and disaster.
Feel the heat of battle,
Taste the blood and your mouth.
Your cause is just.
Terminate the wicked,
Let the perish by the blade of your sword
Rid the world of the evil.
Rid yourself of the darkness within.
Purge all bad things,
Leave nothing but the light.
Conquer all.
Feel the power.
Be the mighty.
Lead your men to victory.
Claim the spoils.
Feed your inner needs
Your cause is just.
