Fighting the World

Fighting the world every single day Fighting the world for the right to play Heavy metal in my brain I'm fighting for metal 'cause it's here to stay Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting the world Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting Fight for a living, fighting the world Now people keep asking if we're going to change I look them in the eye, tell them no way Stripes on a tiger don't wash away Manowar's made of steel not clay Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting the world Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting Fight for a living, fighting the world See my brother standing by my side Only got one thing on ever mind Radio's playing this nationwide Turn it up louder till we all get fright Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting the world Fighting, fighting, fighting the world I been fighting Fight for a living, fighting the world |

Blow Your Speakers
|
|
Wrote a letter to the MTV What's going on now Don't you care about me Send the same letter to the radio But my party went dead Like a shot in the head We all like it, rock and roll We all want it, on your show Play it loud, don't play it low Blow your speakers with rock and roll We got lots of stations around the nation And the stuff they're playing It just ain't worth saying People want music to get them moving We don't want labels We want music on the cable We all like it, rock and roll We all want it, on your show Play it loud, don't play it low Blow your speakers with rock and roll We got lots of stations around the nation And the stuff they're playing It just ain't worth saying We all like it, rock and roll We all want it, on your show Play it loud, don't play it low Blow your speakers with rock and roll |

Carry On

The North Star always guides me When winter skies are gray And I wait for the sun, when all are one I shall not betray Calling at me I'm waiting When all are led astray Carry on, my sons forever Carry on, when I am gone Carry on, for when the day is long Forever carry on For as long as we together Then forever carry on Darkness all around us We don't close our eyes No one's gonna ground us We were born to fly Coming at us, no stopping Born to amplify Carry on, my sons forever Carry on, when I am gone Carry on, when the day is long Forever carry on For as long as we together Then forever carry on Yeah, be my brother Fight to stay alive All the world can't change us With all their burned-out jive Come get us, now we're waiting We won't ride and hide Carry on, my sons forever Carry on, when I am gone Carry on, when the day is long Forever carry on For as long as we together Then forever carry on Now we're all together Let's sing a fighting song One hundred thousand riders We can't all be wrong Coming at us, no stopping Always carry on Carry on, my sons forever Carry on, when I am gone Carry on, for when the day is long Forever carry on For as long as we together Then forever carry on |

Violence and Bloodshed
|
|
Civilization crumbling fast End the world with a blast People afraid, walking the streets Scums have their day 'til they run into me Are you ready? Living in fear ain't living to me I'm armed with a gun, defending the free They blew it in 'Nam, shot up my friends I'm back in the street, the fight never ends I was born with a gun in my hand I'll die for my country, but I'll die like a man Violence and bloodshed Violence and bloodshed Violence and bloodshed Now that we're back to animal law The payback's a bitch, I'm paying all All my life I been waiting to see Who's gonna win, crumbs or me Are you ready? My brother's still in Da-Nang Putting an ad in the back of Kerrang I'm looking for people who just wanna kill We'll go back to 'Nam 'cause no one else will Land of the free, home of the brave Now that's how it is and that's how it stays Violence and bloodshed Violence and bloodshed Violence and bloodshed |

Defender
|
|
When you are old enough to read these words Their meaning will unfold These words are all that's left And though we've never met, my only son I hope you know That I would have been there to watch you grow But my call was heard and I did go Now your mission lies ahead of you As it did mine so long ago To help the helpless ones, who all look up to you And to defend them to the end Defender Ride like the wind Fight proud, my son You're the defender God has sent Father, father Father, I look up to you And heed thy call This letter ends my search I'll live your dream, now passed on to me And I now wait to shake the hand of fate Like the dusk awaiting dawn So wizards, cast your spell With no heart to do me well So it is written, it shall be Defender Ride like the wind Fight proud, my son You're the defender God has sent |

Holy War

Damnation, religion, salvation, fire and steel I have seen the fire Of the thousands suns pass by While blasphemers spread their gospel Bearing false witness, now we rise All ye children of the wild Fists like hammers fill the air Vast legions, all immortal Smash the stillness everywhere Holy, holy war Holy, we are fighting, fighting a holy war Holy war, see us fly on winds of doom Holy war, baptized in fire and steel Holy war, for the end we bring is soon Holy war, now face the storm A holy war Brothers of metal know no masters Metal's our religion, take it to the grave Rulers of the earth, our dawn of glory All reborn, we live again Hold true, ye sacred army Our last battle is at hand Sweep this dogs from our kingdom Bless this ground, our holy land Holy, holy war Holy, we are fighting, fighting a holy war Holy war, see us fly on winds of doom Holy war, baptized in fire and steel Holy war, for the end we bring is soon Holy war, now face the storm A holy war |

Black Wind, Fire and Steel
|
|
Full moon's light is calling me, my kingdom lies within The mystic soul and lion's heart brought by the talisman The ecstasy of battle takes me where the falcons fly Immortal youth was granted me, I will never die Born of black wind, fire and steel Born of black wind, fire and steel Born to teach them all to heel Born of black wind, fire and steel Pounded by the hammers of the giants of the world I can see in darkness, I'm the overlord Single combat I await, my shadow brings them fear The spikes upon my chariot will grind them when they're near Born of black wind, fire and steel Born of black wind, fire and steel Born to teach them all to heel Born of black wind, fire and steel I am an outcast on the path of no return Punisher and swordsman, I was born to burn Black wind always follows where my black horse rides Fire's in my soul, steel is on my side Born of black wind, fire and steel Born of black wind, fire and steel Born to teach them all to heel Born of black wind, fire and steel I am an outcast on the path of no return Punisher and swordsman, I was born to burn Black wind always follows, where my black horse rides Fire's in my soul, steel is on my side Born of black wind, fire and steel Born of black wind, fire and steel Born to teach them all to heel Born of black wind, fire and steel |
