Jon Bon Jovi couldn’t help but be inspired by a viral video of Ukrainians gearing up for battle with invading Russian forces.
“This is for the ones who stood their ground… Odessa, Ukraine. #SlaveaUkraini [Ukrainian flag emoji],” read the tweet from the Jersey band’s account alongside the footage of gearing up for battle on the coast in Odessa, which is just to the south of the embattled nation that has been valiantly holding off the vicious, unprovoked assault from Russian president Vladimir Putin’s troops for nearly a month.
The post got a quick retweet and reply from the official account for the Ukrainian government, which read: “thank you for the support!”“Yeah, this is for the ones who stood their ground,” go the lyrics, which continue, “Tomorrow’s getting harder, make no mistake/ Luck ain’t even lucky, got to make your own breaks/ It’s my life/ And it’s now or never/ I ain’t gonna live forever/ I just want to live while I’m alive.
