The Gauntlet
(album: Sing Loud, Sing Proud!)
Well I just got back from a break in the fight
I was weighing in heavy but still feeling alright
all I hear in the distance - mines and shells
here come the sirens wailing another attack to be repelled
Do you think we´re gonna make it?
I don´t know unless we try
you could sit here scared to move
or we could take them by surprise
it´s submission that they want
it´s surrender that they need
when we´re doing it their way
their aims will be achieved
They´re gonna come when you´re not ready
when you´re not too well-prepared
they´re gonna prey upon your weakness
no man´s soul is ever spared
you´ve got to stand up, yeah, and fight them
show them what it´s all about
this man is not for sale
there will be no backing down.
