Never Surrender

(Title ripped from the book No Surrender by Hiroo Onoda. Lyrics are the spirit of metal. As I feel it.) Breakin free breakin the chains Break the spell gonna fight! Fight! Fight! Sever all ties whatever the cost Cos these goddamned fools are forever lost Never return never go back Ever forward attack! Attack! Attack! Consuming rage for the end of the age All sacrifice to power Cos it's never too late to change your fate Back in the ring, take another swing Never gotta run nor cower Yeah get a wolf pack that's got your back and Never surrender, stay tight Don't give an inch when ya know ya right Never back down gonna fight fight fight Maximum charge , maximum volts Lightnin firin thunderbolts Never return never go back Ever forward attack! Attack! Attack! C'mon boys, let's take'em all Let's make the bastards bleed Raise a fire n light the world And hear their endless screams Never surrender, never surrender They lost the war but I'll win my battle And none of us here will live forever And I'd sooner die than live on my knees So no remorse, no regrets and never surrender

Feel our rising power A magic final force A saviour dressed in black golden robes A wild eyed sadist Oh shine into the night and sing your songs And kneel before our rising power Hark the fools they sing Dance within the ring I am not mystified, Inculcated petrified I'm still alive In the kingdom of the blind The one eyed are king By the light of the fire in the pitch black night I felt the serpent rise They said no words to me I've never felt so wild alive By the light of the fire in the pitch black night I feel the serpent rise And I'm bewitched by her eyes Round and round the fire in the pitch black night By the light of the fire

I searched for a woman But found only girls And searched for a wise man But found only fools Flew the greatest heights Suffered the greatest fall But it's only when it's said and done We ever see at all Wasted days taming wolves But I found only dogs are left in this world We run from our shadows Into the hands of false gods Death plays the tune and we dance to her song I can feel the time has come To stop with words and take up the sword Let heroes arise, and hear the call of the gods Invoking the first to bring on the last What's to come I can see in the past Let heroes arise To the call of the gods For beauty and youth And a treasure of lies You gave up your honour, a compulsion to suicide Surrendered ya truth and you've already died For a man without honour has nothing left to lose Ya sold ya soul And you've nothing left to sell No saving grace on your death knell So here we stand on the edge of the mirror On shifting sands staring at forever And I crossed the ocean wide Across the great divide And heard the wolves were howling And I watched the world go by I stood alone too long And saw the tide was rising And I draped myself in black And sung the funeral chant And I, I bid my last farewell Cos the way ahead Will lead you all to hell

They steal our myth and lore They rob our blood and kin They took our temple floor From the sovereign queen They steal the ancient fire On the land where we were free They change the light of day Rewrite history They steal from the sky on high On the land we all once died for They steal the unborn child Then praise the whore You cannot break us, you cannot take us You cannot break the bonds that hold us strong You cannot fight us, c'mon and try us Cannot break the bonds that hold us strong They made their wise men fools Their spirits weak They stole their very homes From beneath their fuckin feet They talk of peace Yet bring only strife They speak of love Through sneering teeth and a voice of spite They steal the crowns of kings Profane our elder dreams They blind the light of day Make slaves of the free We're a different breed And there's none like me You cannot break the bonds that hold us strong Spirit cannot break

(Inspired by the people of North Sentinel island.) Tyrants Call on the slayer Manic sons of fire Violent and brave Silent is she That steers my path The smiling dark brazen hordes Oh fight savage fight! Don't come into the light Oh fight savage fight! With blade in your hand To live in your own land Preachers Servants of decay From the cesspit lie Pregnant with rage Oh fight savage fight! Come into the light Oh fight savage fight! With blade in your hand To live in your own land In the fires of our rage They're finding their selves a way And they'll give up their lives to live in their own land Betrayers, silent hidden hands Poison our well, knelt before graven idols Liars, thieves of the just In stealth they are known By the sign of the whore

(Inspired by the saga of Magnus, elected King of Frisia, who upon the bloody completion of the removal of a false Pope was due his reward. Magnus requested no payment by way of nobility, but instead requested the right to freedom and freedom of speech for all time for all Frisians. I can't testify to the veracity of the tale, but its lesson stands regardless. Lever duad us slaav.) Tear out the eyes of the contested Father Blinded and exiled incite the slaughter Removing the head by decree Nobles quest for the See As serpents they slide into Rome When the Tiber is low Fight to the impostor's den Seen, the battle begins As long as the wind blows, the great clouds above Before heaven give us your word Raise the flag on high Death of the papal lie Wailing, crying, dying or dead Victory knee deep in blood Raising the flag on the church on high Death n confusion for the papal lie Wailing, crying, dying or dead Victory knee deep in blood Magnus, great deeds are paid For all the impostors you have slain Yet deny nobility None but the right to be free For as long as the wind blows As long as the world As long as the heavens None but the right to be free For as long as the wind blows As long as the world As long as the heavens None but the right to be free Tear out the eyes of the contested Father Blinded, exiled incite the slaughter Removing the head by (unholy) decree Nobles quest for the See Silent hey slide into Rome When the Tiber is low Fight to the impostor's den Soon the battle begins No grand treasure, no honored titles As long as the wind blows, the great clouds above As long as the world Freedom's toll, earned by blood and strife Freedom's toll, rather death than slavery

(Drawn from the tale of the wreck of the Batavia) From winter to winter we sailed across seas To the ends of the world and a hell unseen A place that where few if any are saved To an isle of the damned that would be your grave What would unfold when Pelsaert was gone Idle hands and God's love the Devil's work is done And that woman you think as slave shall you follow Is destined for sorrow and you for the gallows T'was not long for blades were drawn The drownings at night of woman and child And to Cornelius an oath was sworn To kill all the men and the women defile And dressed in the finery of lords and kings In the name of God my Father unleash The rape (and the) murder (and) every wicked sin Axed Hacked Battered Drowned All in the name of my good Lord above So come men of iron Men of blade, men of steel And you men of musket and you that would kill So fear not hell nor the preacher's word For God has spoken and I have heard And it is the truth, there can be no sin There can be no wrong for our Lord is within And if you should come to this isle of the damned To the place where they were all hanged If you listen you can still hear The cry for revenge by that man Cornelius
