Broken Promises

Betrayed was I who, called to take the cause
Sought refuge in accepting rich mens laws
When with the Rank-man I would make my stand,
As with them all
My life bled for my land

Authority blames nor will not heed their fault
Nor stand with Rankers in this worlds assault:
Believe not in the promises grand men made
For each who does
Is one more man betrayed
