Fifty million miles
Below my feet
There's a lot of people
I'd like to meet

There's thieves and killers
Harlots and whores
All were misguided
But not any more

So I see their fate
In the black of the doom
Waves of fire in the storm
Creatures howl at the moon

They're screaming intensely
Their cries are heard for miles
A prince resides there
Lake of fools burning wild

WAR CRY
(Lawless)

Oh, I was marked from the day I was born
A rebel and I was the one who I am
My father could not understand the fire in me
There was times I was crazy for real
So crazy I just couldn't feel, no
Confusion would stand in the door and tell me lies

But now I stand on my feet so alive
I'm a metal warrior, I need their cries: War cry!

I'm a soldier of fortune
Ah, come take a stand
Together we'll let out a cry
I'm a soldier of fortune
Ah, come take a stand
Together we'll never say die

Oh, I did not choose, the music chose me
I was christened and destined to be who I am
The one that they said would be damned a hellion child that?
I stand at the mirror and sing
I dare to be different and dream now I am
Big thunder that rolls on the land forever wild

But still this feeling inside never die
I'm a metal warrior, I need their cries: War cry!

Raise your fist and support your rebel outlaws
Cause nobody rides for free
The freedom we lose today, you lose tomorrow
Because freedom means something to us
