I Have the Duty

Realities: --- break ---

I Have the Duty --- break ---

To see the bigger picture,
And the smaller,
To save the many,
And the few,
To uphold natural justice.

I have the duty,
To be fair, and just,
To live by the rulebook,
To do what is right,
Not easiest,
But know when the rulebook no longer applies.

I have the duty,
When the day is done,
To stand with honour,
And dignity,
But without false pride.

To do all this,
I have the duty,
To go beyond the call,
I have the duty,
To serve with honour,
I have, the duty.
