Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a man on a mission
And my deligence won't wait
There are supersonic killers in the sky
Everything you do will analized,
They control every step of your life

Well, mankind has gone to a high extreme
To the dark side on the way
All I see a masquerade
And the termination waits

Oh, I've seen the faces of million leaving here
Abandoned time and places of a world
Built out of fear
The quest is drawing near
The mystery of fear is just about to clear

What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together
From the never ending rain,
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again

So we travel on at speed of light
And the gods will light our way
Gotta change our part in the masterplan
For another break in the race

And the trumpet sound will soon be heard
As the dead in mind awake
And the joyfull saints will guide us
On the onward flight that we take

Oh, I've seen a million
Leaving right away from here
Abandoned time and places of a world
Built out of fear
The quest is drawing near
The mystery of fear is just about to clear

What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together
From the never ending rain,
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again

Take make hand and you will see,
The mirror of your destiny
So many came to read the signs,
To understand their meaning
Now I see it's you and me,
So try to understand
And we will walk the road of life
Together hand in hand
I do not dare, I do not dare
But something's calling me
For those who dared could not break free
The one who will succeed,
I wonder, is it me?

[SOLO: Kai]

Give us a chance to live,
Give us a chance to die,
Give us a chance to be free,
Without fire from sky
Give us a chance to love,
Give us a chance to hate
Give us a chance, before you kill us all
Before you kill us, kill us all
Before you kill us all, before you kill us all
Before you kill us all

What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together




From the never ending rain,
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again

Overall Meaning

The song "Man on a Mission" by Gamma Ray talks about the struggle of a man who is determined to fulfill his mission despite the challenges he faces. He is aware that there are forces beyond his control that seek to manipulate and control his every move. The lyrics suggest that mankind has gone too far to the dark side, leading to the abandonment of time and places built out of fear. The quest for a solution is drawing near, and the mystery of fear is about to clear. This suggests that the singer is aware of the dangers that threaten to wipe out humanity and is determined to take necessary steps to prevent it.


The song highlights the need for human beings to come together and walk away from the never-ending rain and unite in the quest for a better world. The trumpets' sound is soon to be heard, signaling a wake-up call for the dead in mind to awaken, and the saints will guide humanity on the onward flight they take. The singer believes that together, humanity can interpret and understand the meaning of the signs and walk the road of life hand in hand.


One interesting fact about this song is that it was released in 1995 and featured in two of Gamma Ray's albums, "Land of the Free" and "Alive '95". The song is about Kai Hansen's departure from Helloween and his start with Gamma Ray.

Overall, the song is a call for humanity to come together and fight against the forces that seek to control, dominate and manipulate them. The lyrics suggest that all human beings have to do is unite and walk away from the never-ending rain into the sun again, which symbolizes a brighter future for all.

I'm a man on a mission
I am a determined person with a purpose


And my deligence won't wait
I am committed and will not delay


There are supersonic killers in the sky
There are threats and dangers lurking above us


Everything you do will analized,
Every action is scrutinized and monitored


They control every step of your life
There is an outside force dictating our lives


Well, mankind has gone to a high extreme
Humanity has taken things to an unprecedented level


To the dark side on the way
We are headed towards a negative outcome


All I see a masquerade
I perceive a false display hiding the truth


And the termination waits
Death is imminent


Oh, I've seen the faces of million leaving here
I have witnessed countless individuals departing from this world


Abandoned time and places of a world
There are deserted locations and moments in history


Built out of fear
Created due to fear and anxiety


The quest is drawing near
The search for answers is becoming more urgent


The mystery of fear is just about to clear
The unknown source of fear is about to be revealed


What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
We require a miraculous event to improve our situation


Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
We need to express our feelings and ideas openly


Let us walk away together
Let us depart as a united group


From the never ending rain,
From the continuous hardships and struggles


'Til the sun will shine for all of us again
Until things improve for everyone


So we travel on at speed of light
We move forward with great speed


And the gods will light our way
We will be guided by a higher power


Gotta change our part in the masterplan
We must alter our role in the bigger picture


For another break in the race
For another chance to succeed


And the trumpet sound will soon be heard
A significant event is about to occur


As the dead in mind awake
As those who were previously oblivious become aware


And the joyfull saints will guide us
Those who have found happiness will lead us


On the onward flight that we take
On our continued journey forward


Take make hand and you will see,
Take my hand and you will understand


The mirror of your destiny
Reflect on your fate


So many came to read the signs,
Many have attempted to decipher the warning signs


To understand their meaning
To comprehend their significance


Now I see it's you and me,
I realize that we must work together


So try to understand
Make an effort to comprehend


And we will walk the road of life
We will journey together in life


Together hand in hand
United and supportive of one another


I do not dare, I do not dare
I am apprehensive and hesitant


But something's calling me
I feel compelled to act


For those who dared could not break free
Those who risked everything still could not escape


The one who will succeed,
The individual who will triumph


I wonder, is it me?
I question if I am the chosen one


Give us a chance to live,
Allow us the opportunity to exist


Give us a chance to die,
Permit us the chance to pass away


Give us a chance to be free,
Provide us the chance to be liberated


Without fire from sky
Without destruction and devastation


Give us a chance to love,
Give us the opportunity to experience love


Give us a chance to hate
Allow us to be angry and resentful


Before you kill us all
Before everything is destroyed


What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
We require a miraculous event to improve our situation


Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
We need to express our feelings and ideas openly


Let us walk away together
Let us depart as a united group


From the never ending rain,
From the continuous hardships and struggles


'Til the sun will shine for all of us again
Until things improve for everyone

Karl Logan

I'm a man on a mission
I'm a man of my word
I've got super duper powers in the sky
every joyful sin
In the altitude
While we watch the Prussians go by

Oh I've seen the millions in a world that we all fear
Abandon times and spaces in a world without beer
That's the story near
Mystery I fear
Is this the road to Lear?
