[u]For I am Legend[/u]
I am unsung
I am unknown
I am unaltered
I do not need ballads of my battles
I do not need stories of my fame
I do not need pictures of my victories
I do not need glory
I do not seek prideful bliss…
I only seek Honor
I only seek Respect
I only seek Courage
I only seek Valor
I only seek Bravery…
I am not my own inspiration
My inspiration comes from the ones who cannot defend themselves
My inspiration comes from the Earth beneath my feet
My inspiration comes from all those that have fallen before me
My inspiration comes from my Brethren that choose to stand beside me…
I will face any enemy without hesitation
I will face any challenge head on
I will face death without fear
I will not die like those wishing for more time upon their final hour
I will fall without a word
because I know my enemy will fall silent too…
When I do die do not sing of my deeds…
For I am unsung
Do not tell of my victories…
For I am unknown
Do not linger on my death…
For I am unaltered
You must live as I have…
For I am unsung
You must fight as I have…
For I am unknown
You must die as I have…
For I am unaltered
You must be remembered as I am.
For I am Legend.
Be Brave.
