This is why I fight

I have a family to defend and protect

This is why I fight

They have done too much to receive neglect

This is why I fight

I live in a great and proud nation

This is why I fight

There is no crime, disease, or starvation

This is why I fight

Until now, with death at the door

This is why I fight

It won’t stop until everything has been razed to the floor

This is why I fight

My family is now long dead

This is why I fight

I plan to rid this horror from my head

This is why I fight

Years have passed, my work is almost done

This is why I fight

I’m now the only one left, which should be fun

This is why I fight

I enjoy reading combat books, mostly about rebels fighting thier current controlers. And i could see myself arming up and defending my home, so i decided to write something up about it.
