The Pallas Athena
The Pallas Athena
Daughter of Zeus
Born from his skull
And a mother forgotten.
She still lives among us
Goddess of strategy and war
Wars on the homefront
Of injustice and strife
Of dehumanization and lies
The head of every protest
Organizer
Leader
Warrior
The Pallas Athena
Stands for the weak
The weary women
The forgotten children
She was forgotten once
Never again
Never for anyone
The Pallas Athena
Patron of thinkers
Patron of fighters
Still lives among us
Still fights
Still plans
Wise leader
Wise warrior
Defender of those forgotten
