Cowards die many times.
The Mad Man is not asking you to be suicidal,
The Mad Man is asking you to be courageous.
For this battle is not of one day,
This battle is not of one man,
This battle is intergenerational.
Play your part when it is the rarest time.
Play your part when the fire burns low.
Play your part when the world laughs at you.
Play your part when the enemy thinks he has won.
For your children will play their part.
And their children’s children will play their part.
Until the scroll of time is unrolled,
And Africa, the mother continent,
Shall rise from the ashes of shame,
And regain her lost love,
Her stolen throne,
Her forgotten song.
The Mad Man declares:
Cowards die, sinners die,
But the courageous,
The faithful,
The warriors of truth—
They live forever in the bloodstream of nations.
The Mad Man declares:
Stand up like lions after slumber!
Shake off the dust of fear!
Break the chains of mental slavery!
For the fullness of earth and heaven is with us.
And in that great day of reckoning,
It shall be said:
There were men and women,
Brave enough to play their part.
Thus saith The Mad Man."
