Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i'll be back later
before the sun sets my dear
i won't keep you waiting
i promise
we'll have candles lit
where we used to
you know..
cuz tomorrow will be another struggle
another battle only harder
you know this is madness
always watch your back
always watch your steps
i can't always be there to catch them bullets
VERSE
i can't do this on my own
can't stand alone against these foes
i need you to hold on
do we stay down?
drown in mud?
accept this as fate?
have we gone faithless?
do we hide?
run away from the crisis?
have we gone hopeless?
can't do this on my own
can't stand alone against these foes
i need you to hold on
i need you to hold on
CHORUS
hold your line
stand your ground
one by one
we'll take you down
hold your line
stand your ground
give them what they want
let's give them war
BRIDGE
we chose our downfall
the once great belatto circle crumbled
now we need a miracle
we need a miracle
i am your karma
your justice
your strength has become your weakness
i am your capital punishment
death awaits you in a minute
i am your karma
your justice
i bow down to no enemy
i submit not to tyranny
i am freedom
i am free
CHORUS:
hold your line
stand your ground
one by one
we'll take you down
hold your line
stand your ground
give them what they want
let's give them war
OUTRO:
it's a shame that you have built
your empires upon sand
i am the water that runs these paths
the life
the cleansing of this land
it's a shame that you have built
you empires upon sand
i am the water
the life
the cleansing of this land
The song "Battle Cry" by Greyhoundz is a powerful and emotional commentary on the struggles and hardships of life, particularly in the face of adversity and conflict. The first verse sets the scene, with the singer promising to return to their loved one before a forthcoming battle. They reminisce about happier times spent together, but acknowledge the bleakness of what lies ahead. The second verse is a call for unity and support, with the singer admitting they cannot face their foes alone and expressing doubts about their ability to overcome the challenges ahead. The chorus is a rallying cry, urging listeners to "hold your line" and "stand your ground" in the face of opposition, before calling for war to be waged against their enemies. The bridge laments the fall of a previously great circle or community, and references the singer's belief in karma and justice. The outro returns to the metaphor of sand and water, with the singer proclaiming themselves to be the source of life and cleansing for their society.
The lyrics of "Battle Cry" are open to interpretation, with the song possibly referencing political unrest or personal struggles. The themes of hope, love, and community are strong throughout, with the song ultimately encouraging listeners to fight for what they believe in and to support one another.

I'll be back later before the sun sets my dear
I won't keep you waiting, I promise

I can't do this on my own,
Can't stand alone against these foes, I need you to hold on
Do we stay down, drown in mud
Accept this is fate, have we gone faithless?
Do we just die, run away from crisis, have we gone hopeless?
I Can't do this on my own,
Can't stand alone against these foes, I need you to hold on, I need you to hold...
Hold your line, stand your ground
