A heavy head beneath the crown
A heart that beats without a sound
You squeeze the vein no pulse is found
What is this madness?
A single thought can lead to war
A desert soaks in blood and gore
While metal stalks the open sands
In a distant land
Oil! fueling the fires of hate
Rebuilding the armies of Satan
Nothing can stand in their way
A sign - remember the lesson of time
The trumpets will sound off in Zion
And reawaken the lion
They use diversions to control
Sucking darkness from our souls
Drain the lifeblood of this land
And use the common man
Place importance on the East
And then rebuild majestically
A modern desert paradise
And stack the odds against our lives
Tipping the balance of power
This is the fated hour
We are children no longer
We rise
Making a stand for mankind
We will preserve our bloodline
No more will die for the sake of a lie!
He who robs the cradle desecrates the earth
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world
