Brutal Fight

A Martyr's Cry

Brutal Fight


It is so easy to say things and never act 
To live and breathe but never die 
When the structure of flawless ideology collapses will you come up for air or spout apostasy? 
Pause and reflect, envision the past 
The now and the future 
A prisoner's silence, a prophet's speech, and a man's stigma 
Men do not suffer hell and pass away for the sake of pride 
They are not murdered leaning on props 
Since when was sacrifice comfortable? 
Since when was sacrifice convenient? 
Our faith is not a temporal medicine 
I heard a martyr's cry. Forgive them! 
It is so easy to say things and never act 
To live and breathe but never die
