To Battle! (V2)
[Mandolin Intro] In the drunken days of old, the dead tell their tales not with words but with blood. Listen then! With your tongues, do you hear? Taste their history! [Verse] Lo and behold, as the dead have foretold, for the rhythm in you seeks flight! Harken the arrows! The Hawks and the Ravens! As your destiny takes flight! Born in a village so long ago, fighting with sword from birth! Cherubic warriors, besting their kin, showing their mothers their worth! In Long Town, finally, you reach that age, pinnacle of your birth! “Onwards!” You scream as you brandish your sword, besting the lesser with mirth! [Chorus] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! Behold world, this warriors worth! He is human, hell on earth! [Verse] Nigh the battle of Nightsblade commenced! Our warrior raised his best defense! Suddenly, across the sky, A bolt of lightning split him wide! His body fell in two halves whole! Regrouped around his mortal soul! Each one coalesced, they did! Inside him one, two warriors hid! Where one warrior have previously been, Now there were two and they were twins! [Interlude] [Chorus] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! Split in two so we are told! Double destruction will now be sold! [Verse] After Nightsblade, Dark Swamp bade, The twin warriors would wield their blades! They chopped off the monsters head! And filled evil’s land with dread! [Verse] The final task on mortal earth! For our two warriors given birth! To climb the mountain in the sky, To Kill the sky King up so high! “You’re going down!” Our heroes roared, As Sky King then unleashed his horde! [Powerful guitar solo] [Bridge fast tempo] HAWKMEN! Swords and maces high! Violence reigned across the SKY! VULTURE, talons, sharpest edge! Battering like sharpened SLEDGE! Then one warrior with sword was SLAIN, The other fell an writhed in PAIN! With the Sky King looking down, he held his sword against the ground. “Would you like to die today?”, “No! It is your soul I’ll flay!” [Chorus] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! His twin was slaughtered in cold blood! Unleashed from him hell’s fury floods! [Verse] With Power unseen our warrior rose! And crumpled down the Sky King’s pose! “From the Sky to down below”, “Sky King down to hell you go!” With one sword plunge, our Warrior ends, The Sky King and his murderous friends! [Outro] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! He won the battle as fate foretold, Now you, your future, what’s it hold? Chorus] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! His twin was slaughtered in cold blood! Unleashed from him hell’s fury floods! [Verse] With Power unseen our warrior rose! And crumpled down the Sky King’s pose! “From the Sky to down below”, “Sky King down to hell you go!” With one sword plunge, our Warrior ends, The Sky King and his murderous friends! [Outro] Mighty warrior from the sky! Progeny birthed at mother’s thigh! He won the battle as fate foretold, Now you, your future, what’s it hold?
