Freedom Call Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Adoramus domine
Te deum laudamus
In memoriam, gloriam
Warriors immortal knights
We walk our way alone
Eternally, we're born to write
The sign of victory
Warriors, immortal knights
So far away from home
Eternally, we're born to fight
Forever riding free
And the day has come
Time to die
Somewhere far beyond
On the stairway to the sky
On the rainbow soaring high
We are born from the sun
In our hands we hold the future
As we live so we will die
Carry on to save mankind
Back to back we stand as one
Until the last crusade is done
We're leaving from the night
Call for vengeance, raise your steel
We are the kinghts on our glory ride
Law defenders, raise your swords
Freedom for us all
Hail to the gods of creation
Hail to the king of the world
A hail to the metal invasion
A heavenly kingdom on earth
Godless odysee, endless agony
We're heading for eternal life
