Manowar

Manowar is an American heavy metal band from Auburn, New York. Formed in 1980, the group is known for its lyrics based on fantasy (particularly sword and sorcery), mythological topics (particularly Norse mythology) and for playing a lot of songs about heavy metal music, along with their "loud and bombastic" sound. In an interview for MTV in February 2007, bassist Joey DeMaio lamented that "these days, there's a real lack of big, epic metal that is drenched with crushing guitars and choirs and orchestras... so it's nice to be one of the few bands that's actually doing that."

Lord of battle I pray on bended knee conquest by the rising sun 
I'll wait for thy command with flame and blood at hand 
glory and a broken sword.

I'm the master of the world I have no fear of man or beast 
Born inside the soul of the world
Riding hard breaking bone with steel and stone
Eternal might I was born to wield.

Let us drink to the battles we've lived and we've fought 
Celebrate the pain and havoc we have wrought 
Great heroes charge into the fight 
From the north to the south in the black of night

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall 
Gods of war feel the power of my sword

Drink to the battles we've lived and we've fought 
Celebrate the pain and havoc we have wrought
Great heroes charge into the fight 
From the north to the south in the black of night

Fierce is my blade fierce is my hate born to die in battle 
I laugh at my fate 
Now pay in blood when your blood has been spilled 
You're never forgiven death is fulfilled !

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall
Gods of war feel the power of my sword

The clash of honor calls 
I will stand when others fall
Open magic doors
The will know the power of my sword

There is blood in my hands there is blood in my eyes
With blood in my voice I scream as you die 
Thirsting for vengeance and mounds of the slain 
Shaking the forest onto the plain

Fierce is my blade fierce is my hate born to die in battle 
I laugh at my fate 
Now pay in blood when your blood has been spilled 
You're never forgiven death is fulfilled !

The clash of honor calls to stand when others fall
Gods of war feel the power of my sword
