Bite the dog too oftenAnd you will tear it apartBefore it even has the chance to riseYet be too kindAnd it will forget that it was bred for warIt will die in the killing fieldsEverything you do must be with purpose and reasonAll decisions must be made without emotionWith respect to the missionAnd the currency of lives
