Analysis of Children of war



You want war.
I am bringing down fist.
I say no more.

The bear is awake.
The lion is roaring.
The eagle is released.

In the darkness you hide.
The light will reveal.
Serpent you fell in my trap.
As usual you fail.

My children do not fear you.
They wear the armor of GOD.
My children come in agreement.
On their knees, they go to war.
