Thirty Seconds To Mars - The Struggle lyrics

A military force is established by deception of sense that you deceive enemies So that they do not know your real condition And then they can establish supremacy It is mobilized by a game in a sense that it goes into action When it sees an advantage Dividing and recombining is done to confuse opponents And observe how they react to you So that they can adapt and situate and seize victory Therefore when it moves swiftly, it is like the wind When it goes slowly, it is like the force It is rapacious as fire and immovable as mountains And as swift as the wind in that it goes without a trace and withdraws Like lightning And it is like a force in that its whirling And is rapacious as fire across a plain Not leaving a single blade of gra** It is immovable as a mountain, and is dark all around It is hard to know as the dark Ends up k**ing thunder To ponder a locality, to line up your troops To expand your territory, divide the spoils The rule for military operations is to feed off the enemy as much as possible However, in localities where people do not have very much It is necessary to divide up the troops into smaller groups To take what they need here and there For when then and there, there will be enough Welcome to the universe
