To Do Or Die

Who hasn't felt heartache
And the pain inside?
We've all paid our dues,
been taken for a ride.
Give up the charade,
There's no place to hide.
to your own heart
you'll have to confide.

Twilight has come,
Days passing to night.
No time for fighting,
Drop selfish pride.
The hour is passing
To do or die

I've traveled here,
I've traveled there,
Nobody wants war
Anywhere.
People feel alienated,
Lost and confused,
You can't find anyplace
Where people aren't abused.

The desperate and the hopeless,
And those who wear jewels,
The sick and the tired,
The sinners and the cruel,
The innocent victims
Who catch all the flak,
The weight of their plight
Is on my back.

Twilight has come,
Day's passing to night.
No time for fighting,
Drop selfish pride,
The hour is passing
To do or die.

The casket and the cradle
Are rocking together,
Which way it goes
Won't depend on the weather.
Who's good, who's bad?
We're birds of a feather.
Without courage or compassion
Our dreams will all wither.

In the battle for right
It's time for the kill.
Break your addictions,
Throw out your pills,
Drop all your toys,
Give up your thrills,
The time has come
To execute God's will.

Twilight has come,
Days passing to night.
No time for fighting,
Drop selfish pride.
The hour is passing
To do or die

Shoot straight,
Ring true,
Help the crippled,
Don't humiliate the fool.
Reach for the impossible
Stretch to the limit,
Conquer the past
Or prepare to relive it.
