Kings Of Metal © 1988
Since the dawn of time
I've rolled across the earth
Spinning in the dust
Long before your birth
Eatin' tar and gasoline
Every light I see is green
Open pipes, my machine's triple-plated chrome
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride
Motors running
Now yo're gonna learn
Waitin' on the line
Make your tires burn
Fast, faster, faster, faster
Speeding always kills
Nothing else takes us to get these thrills
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride
Blood and thunder on the road
My heart is pounding
My blood is nitroglycerine
I'm fire
Burning, burning, burning, burning
Ready to explode
Don't want nothing left of me to scrape off the road
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride
Clouds of smoke
Tires screaming
Fire in my hair
Blown into a thousand pieces
Scattered everywhere
Fast, burn, burning, faster
Wanna take a ride
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire ride
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride
Manowar, Manowar living on the road
When we're in town speakers explode
We don't attract wimps 'cause we're too loud
Just true metal people that's Manowar's crowd
They wanna keep us down
But they can't last
When we get up we're gonna kick your ass
Gonna keep on burnin'
We always will
Other bands play Manowar kill (2x)
We like it hard, we like it fast
We got the biggest amps, man they blast
True metal people wanna rock not pose
Wearin' jeans and leather, not cracker jack clothes
They wanna keep us down
But they can't last
When we get up we're gonna kick your ass
Gonna keep on burnin'
We always will
Other bands play Manowar kill (2x)
We're the kings of metal comin' to town
When we light up, have the roof nailed down
Don't try to tell us that we're too loud
'Cause there ain't no way that we'll ever turn down
They wanna keep us down
But they can't last
When we get up we're gonna kick your ass
Gonna keep on burnin'
We always will
Other bands play Manowar kill
Build a fire a thousand miles away to light my long way home
I ride a comet
My trail is long to stay
Silence is a heavy stone
I fight the world and take all they can give
There are times my heart hangs low
Born to walk against the wind
Born to hear my name
No matter where I stand I'm alone
Stand and fight
Live by your heart
Always one more try
I'm not afraid to die
Stand and fight
Say what you feel
Born with a heart of steel
Burn the bridge behind you
Leave no retreat
There's only one way home
Those who laugh and crowd the path and cut each other's throat
Will fall like melting snow
They'll watch us rise with fire in our eyes
They'll bow their heads
Their hears will hang low
Then we'll laugh and they will kneel and how this heart of steel was
Too hard to break
Too hard to hold
Stand and fight
Live by your heart
Always one more try
I'm not afraid to die
Stand and fight
Say what you feel
Born with a heart of steel
The Crown And The King (Lament Of The Kings)
From a battle I've come
To a battle I ride
Blazing up to the sky
Chains of fate
Hold a fiery stride
I'll see you again when I die
High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
Heroes await me
My enemies ride fast
Knowing not this ride's their last
Saddle my horse as I drink my last ale
Bow string and steel will prevail
High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
Odin I await thee
Your true son am I
I hail you now as I die
I pledge you my sword and to no man I kneel
Ours is the kingdom of steel
High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
See the white light
The light within
Be your own disciple
Fan the sparks of will
For all of us waiting
Our kingdom has come
Rays of power shining
Rays of magic fall
On the golden voice that speaks within us all
For all of us waiting
Your kingdom will come
Kingdom Come
Feel the white light
The light within
Yea it burns a fire that drives a man to win
For all of us waiting
Your kingdom will come
Kingdom Come
Words of power
Calling to us all
Holding us together while other kingdoms fall
No longer waiting
Our kingdom has come
Kingdom Come
Kingdom coming
Another kingdom falls
The rightful are waiting
But all are not rightful
Wait and receive the weight of the fall
Kingdom Come
She is waiting to kiss my hand
But she will wait for my command
My chains and collar brought her to her knees
She now is free to please
Woman, be my slave
That's your reason to live
Woman, be my slave
The greatest gift I can give
Woman, be my slave
Before her surrender she had no life
Now she's a slave, not a wife
Her only sorrow is for women who live with lies
She's taken off her disguise
Woman, be my slave
Chained unto my bed
Woman, be my slave
Begging to be fed
Your body belongs to me
Woman, come here
Remove your garments
Kneel before me
Please me
Woman, be my slave
Chained unto my bed
Woman, be my slave
Begging to be fed
Brothers I am calling from the valley of the kings with nothing to atone
A dark march lies ahead, together we will ride like thunder from the sky
May your sword stay wet like a young girl in her prime
Hold your hammers high
Blood and death are waiting like a raven in the sky
I was born to die
Hear me while I live
As I look into your eyes
None shall hear a lie
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, Hail, Hail and Kill, Hail and Kill (2x)
My father was a wolf
I'm a kinsman of the slain
Sworn to rise again
I will bring salvation, punishment and pain
The hammer of hate is our faith
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, Hail, Hail and Kill, Hail and Kill (2x)
Rip their flesh
Burn their hearts
Stab them in the eyes
Rape their women as they cry
Kill their servants
Burn their homes
Till there's no blood left to spill
Hail and Kill
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, Hail, Hail and Kill, Hail and Kill
Grandfather, tell me a story!
Alright, go and get your storybook
No, no, not one of those. A real Story!
A real story?
Yes, tell me about when you were a boy.
Well, then I shall have to take you back with me, a long way in the ……
It was my 13th year on a cold winter's day. As I walked through the enchanted forest. I heard the sound of horses and men at arms, I felt compelled to walk on and find the place of these sounds. And when the forest did clear I was standing on a hill. Before me the Armies of the World, standing, waiting. I thought to myself, for whom or for what are they waiting?
Suddenly, a gust of wind came up from the north, there appeared a lone rider, holding a sword of steel. Then from the south came another bearing a battle ax. From the east, came a third holding a spiked club, and finally from the west, a rider who wielded a great hammer of war. With them came their Soldiers of Death, followed by an army of Immortals. They were few in numbers. But the look in their eyes told all who beheld them that they would leave this day only in victory or death. And there was a great silence……
My heart began to pound , storm clouds filled the sky with darkness. Rain came and the four winds blew with such anger that I held fast to a tree. I watched the four riders raise their weapons into the air. Without warning, screaming their war cry they led the attack down to the battle they rode. They met the Armies of the World with a might clash! I could feel the ground shake. The earth drank much blood that day! Each of the four was unto himself. A whirlwind of Doom!!!!
When the smoke did clear, many thousands were dead. There was much blood and gore their bodies lay broken and scattered across the battlefield like brown leaves blown by the wind. And I saw the four ride together to the top of the hill, while below them the Soldiers of Death assembled. All those who would now swear allegiance to them.
And the four spoke the words of the Warriors Prayer:
Gods of War I call you, My sword is by my side
I seek a life of honor, free from all false pride
I will crack the whip with a bold mighty hail
Cover me with death if I should ever fail
Glory, Majesty, Unity
Hail, Hail, Hail
And as I stood and looked on, I heard the Armies of the World hail them without end and their voices of victory carreid long and far throughout the land!
Well, that's it, did you like the story?
Yeah, it was great!
Oh good, I'm glad. Now off to bed with you
Grandfather?
Yes?
Who were those four men?
Who were they? They were the METAL KINGS!!!!!!!

Now the time has come when all is said and done
We're back together on the road it's time to fly
No more time to wait, you know it feels so great
Wearin' leather on a horse of steel I ride
I ain't waitin' to get old I'm runnin' hot I'm never cold
Kiss my ass if you don't like me I don't care
I got my wheels, got my friends, we're on the road again
We're all crazy gonna ride until we die
Time to burn, you losers better learn
No one controls our goddamn life
We'll do just what we feel riding horses made of steel
We're here to burn up the night
Losers try to put us down it's just another day
I got no money or big house, just got life
I don't like to save it's more fun to spend
If you like metal, you're my friend
And that bike out in the yard, well that's my wife
Don't try to understand me, my family never will
Had to punch my teacher out now he's chilled
I might stay in school or die in prison
Either way it's my decision, one more beer and heavy metal
And I'm just fine
Time to burn, you losers better learn
No one controls our goddamn life
We'll do just what we feel riding horses made of steel
We're here to burn up the night
We are the undefeated, we're not living in the past
We're here tonight to kick some goddamn ass
Feel the power of the wheel, let's drink to riding steel
Livin' hard and ridin' fast
Time to burn, you losers better learn
No one controls our goddamn life
We'll do just what we feel riding horses made of steel
We're here to burn up the night
Strike while the iron is hot
Steel is strongest so say we all
And if we all were not Brothers of Metal, would we fall? No
They tried to test our spirit
They tested steel before we were done
Grinding their bones into the dust of the past
All blown away like a shot from a gun
Brothers of Metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal, metal that's real
Brother of Metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air
Let us drink to the power, drink to the sound
Thunder and metal are shaking the ground
Drink to your brothers who are never to fall
We're all Brother of Metal here in the hall
Our hearts are filled with metal and Masters we have none
And we will die for metal, Metal heals, my son
Brothers of Metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal, metal that's real
Brother of Metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air
Let us drink to the power, drink to the sound
Thunder and metal are shaking the ground
Drink to your brothers who are never to fall
We're all Brother of Metal here in the hall
Brothers of Metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal, metal that's real
Brother of Metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air
In the beginning there was silence and darkness
All across the earth
Then came the wind and a hole in the sky
Thunder and lightning came crashing down
Hit the earth and split the ground
Fire burned high in the sky
From down below fire melted the stone
The ground shook and started to pound
The Gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it's over with you know that's a lie
The Gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die
We are the true believers
It's our turn to show the world
In the fire of heavy metal we were burned
It's more than our religion it's the only way to live
But the enemies of the metal we can't forgive
Cause we believe in the power and the might
And the Gods who made metal are with us tonight
The Gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it's over with you know that's a lie
The Gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die
We believe in the power and the might
And the Gods who made metal are with us tonight
We're here tonight for heavy metal, are you ready in the hall?
They have chosen us and we have heard the call
Gonna tear the roof off with our sound
Crack the walls and shake the ground
Fight tonight for metal one and all
Cause we believe in the power and the might
And the Gods who made metal are with us tonight
The Gods made heavy metal and they saw that it was good
They said to play it louder than hell
We promised that we would
When losers say it's over with you know that's a lie
The Gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die
Some want to think hope is lost, see me stand alone
I can't do what others may want then I'll have no home
So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly
Hear this song of courage ride into the night
Battles are fought by those with the courage to believe
They are won by those who find the heart
Find a heart to share
This heart that fills the soul will point the way to victory
If there's a fight then I'll be there I'll be there
So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly
Lift your wings up high my friend fearless to the end
So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high
Hear this song of courage long into the night
We belong to the world, we belong to the wind
We are the spirit of the competition's end
Turning hours into day, burning muscles feel the pain
The heart and soul of discipline, my friends
We are sending you a challenge, it's very clear
We came to win, that is why we are here
Demanding to be tested, tested by the best
Not to be forgotten like all the rest
The time has come, all the training done
The muscle and the blood will come to pay
Let the game begin, hear the starting gun
Play from the heart today, we will overcome
When the game is over, all the counting's done
We were born to win Number 1
Today is the day all the training through
We have come for the Number 1, not the Number 2
Let the contest begin, play hard fight to win
Immortality victory and fame
The time has come, all the training done
The muscle and the blood will come to pay
Let the game begin, hear the starting gun
Play from the heart today, we will overcome
When the game is over, all the counting's done
We were born to win Number 1
Today is the day all the training through
We have come for the Number 1, not the Number 2
Let the contest begin, play hard fight to win
Immortality victory and fame
Let the game begin, hear the starting gun
Play from the heart today, we will overcome
When the game is over, all the counting's done
We were born to win Number 1
I'm a stranger in town and my guns never cold
I'm a gambler so bet on your life
You'll never live to grow old
I deal in lead, I won't step aside
Where trouble's waitin', well so am I
I live for the fight, the thrill of the kill
Paid in gold for the blood I spill
Outlaw, outlaw, outlaw ride
Into the west, a gun by your side
Hell and glory, honor and pride
A gun will decide where the outlaws ride
The law of the west, was the law of the gun
Shoot and be fast, live on the run
Stay alive, be fast on the draw
Live by the gun or die by the law
Outlaw, outlaw, outlaw ride
Into the west, a gun by your side
Hell and glory, honor and pride
A gun will decide where the outlaws ride
Shot through the heart in the blink of an eye
Buried up on boot hill
Life is cheap when the bounty is high
So be ready to kill
The law of the west, was the law of the gun
Shoot and be fast, live on the run
Stay alive, be fast on the draw
Live by the gun or die by the law
Shot of Whisky, I'll be on my way
Back in the saddle, pull on the reins
Spurs to the beast, over the hill
Another town, one more kill
Outlaw, outlaw, outlaw ride
Into the west, a gun by your side
Hell and glory, honor and pride
A gun will decide where the outlaws ride
Now is the time to reach for the sky
Gather the wind hear the voice to fly
To know why they sing about the heroes and kings
Who were brave and not afraid to die
Look and you'll see that a new day will bring
The will to go on and fight through endless suffering
For all who believe wait a crown, a ring
The power of the man who would be King (2x)
Into the fight of hopes and dreams
The Master of the Wind knows nothing's what it seems
The melting of the soul, the wish of those who scheme
The taking of the will by Destroyers of the Dream
They live to spread the fear of the wrong of right of self
They want us all to live like books upon a shelf
But we know we have the power to fight and make a stand
Strike when we are challenged all across the land to be King
Fight for the crown, fight for the ring
We're fighting the world, we fight for the King
Time to face the world, let brothers never fight
Forever forge ahead and keep the dream in sight
For those who never try, they are sure to fail
The heart's a righteous wind that comes to fill the sail
For the glory of the King, we fight to stay alive
By the Power of the will, the spirit to survive to be King
Fight for the crown, fight for the ring
We're fighting the world, we fight for the King
All of the dreams held deep inside have meaning to the soul
Freedom to bring a thought to the wing is waiting to unfold
For the crown and the ring
The power of the man who would be King
Fight for the crown, fight for the ring
We're fighting the world, we fight for the King
For the glory of the King, we fight to stay alive. Fight
By the Power of the will, the spirit to survive. Fight
Across the gates of heaven beyond the gates of hell. Fight
We fought to stay together
We have won and have lived to tell who would be King
Fight for the crown, fight for the ring
We're fighting the world, we fight for the King
I've got the power to fly into the wind
The power to be free, to die and live again
This power's like fire, fire loves to burn
Make the world a grave of ashes in an urn
The power in the darkness to see without my sight
Walk among the living free of wrong and right
The power of the magic, the power of the spell
not to serve in heaven but one day rule in hell
Power The Power The Power
This power's greater than love and of hate
This is the power of will and of fate
The power to kill, the power to feel
The power of blood, the triumph of steel
Greater than the power of a priest of a sinner
The power to defy to fight and be the winner
The power of the Demons Spirits I command
Always by my side to serve the Master's plan
Power The Power The Power
None can fight the power none can fight the wind
Secrets of all life and death, are carried there within
call out to the power of the darkness and light
Have Dominion of the earth, be Lord of all the night
Kill all those who stand against you, look into their eyes
Drink their blood and laugh as they pay for all their lies
Piss upon their grave then cast a final spell
Fly into the night, one day meet in hell
Power The Power The Power
