It will be just like today, we eat each others flesh,
Might makes right by tooth and claw,
for the natural law is fand and claw,
and if your fit you'll rule and reign,
is the gospel of our day.
Might was right when Caesar
bled upon the stones of Rome,
Might was Right when Joshua led
his hordes o’er Jordan’s foam,
And Might was Right when German troops
poured down through Paris gay;
It’s the Gospel of the Ancient World
and the Logic of To-Day.
Behind all Kings and Presidents–
all Government and Law,
Are army-corps and cannoneers–
to hold the world in awe.
And sword-strong races own the earth
and ride the Conqueror’s Car–
And Liberty has never been won,
except by deeds of war.
What are the lords of hoarded gold–
the silent Semite rings?
What are the plunder-patriots–
high-pontiffs, priests and kings?
What are they but bold master-minds,
best fitted for the fray?
Who comprehend and vanquish by–
the Logic of To-Day?
Cain’s knotted club is scepter still–
the “Rights of Man” is fraud:
Christ’s Ethics are for creeping things–
true manhood smiles at “God”.
For Might is Right when empires sink
in storms of steel and flame;
And it is Right when weakling breeds–
are hunted down like game.
Then what’s the use of dreaming dreams–
that “each shall get his own”
By forceless votes of meek-eyed thralls,
who blindly sweat and moan?
No! a curse is on their cankered brains–
their very bones decay:
-Go! trace your fate in the Iron Game,
is the Logic of To-Day.
The strong must ever rule the Weak,
is grim Primordial Law–
On earth’s broad racial threshing floor,
the Meek are beaten straw.
Then ride to Power o’er foemens neck
let nothing bar your way,
IF you are fit you’ll rule and reign,
is the Logic of To-Day.

This has been our lives for some time, we just hate the truth, I should know, I fear it to. The sins of our fathers is a generational debt which must be repaid, and how do they repay God? By shacking their fist in his fast. Father eat the flesh of their sons, daughters hate their mothers, it's a world of suffering and hell we created a responsibility, we are not ready for that is life.
