Our Battle Hymn

[Intro – Bagpipes & Didgeridoo (slow, ominous, tribal)]
(Low spoken growl over the drone)
From the mountains… from the cellars… from the fire… it rises again…
[Verse 1 – Fast thrashing riff]
Thunder in the distance, the earth begins to shake
Heavy boots are marching, no mercy, no mistake
From Berlin to the outback, from the fjords to Tokyo
The ancient call is sounding, let the metal river flow
Leather, spikes and battle vests, hair like whips in the wind
Millions rise as one tonight, the old gods scream again
No flags, no borders, only one command we know
When the riff tears through the sky – it’s time to overthrow!
[Pre-Chorus – Half-time, crushing]
The sky turns black, the heavens crack
Lightning strikes the ground like an axe!
[Chorus – Massive, anthemic, easy to scream along]
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Raise your fists and scream it loud!
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Metal gods are marching now!
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Hearts of steel and thunder sound!
OUR BATTLE HYMN! OUR BATTLE HYMN!
BURN THIS FUCKING WORLD DOWN!
[Verse 2 – Even faster, more aggressive]
Forged in fire, born in pain, baptized in gasoline
Every broken heart and lost soul finds its war machine
The devil laughed when this song was written long ago
Now we sing it back at him and watch the heavens explode
No one stands alone tonight, the legion has awoken
Every throat becomes a weapon, every scream a shotgun
From the ashes of the weak, a new empire will rise
Under one eternal riff – we own the bloody skies!
[Pre-Chorus – Half-time, crushing]
The mountains bleed, the oceans scream
Reality is torn at the seams!
[Chorus – Even bigger]
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Raise your fists and scream it loud!
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Metal gods are marching now!
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
Hearts of steel and thunder sound!
OUR BATTLE HYMN! OUR BATTLE HYMN!
BURN THIS FUCKING WORLD DOWN!
[Bridge – Slow, heavy, evil groove]
On the highest peak of iron, the ancient ones appear
Axes high, guitars like swords, eyes burning like nuclear fear
One word echoes through the storm…
“UNITE!”
[Heavy Guitar Solo – Pure Kreator-style hammer, blazing fast alternate picking, whammy bar dives, then melodic evil lead over thunderous rhythm section for 45-50 seconds]
[Final Chorus – Double-time, completely unhinged, gang shouts]
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN! (Battle Hymn!)
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN! (Battle Hymn!)
THIS IS OUR BATTLE HYMN!
The whole world shakes when we begin!
OUR BATTLE HYMN! OUR BATTLE HYMN!
WE ARE THE STORM THAT NEVER ENDS!
[Outro – Slow down, crushing last chords]
As the final note fades…
Somewhere in the dark…
A single guitar riff starts again…
[Final Intro reprise – Bagpipes & Didgeridoo rising into the wind, then abrupt silence]
