He′s praying to the Gods above
Praying for rain to come
The land is dying

As the old man sang
Feel the ground is trembling
See the darks clouds racing
Far in the distance

When the dark clouds cover the sky
Hear the thunder roar
Lightning!
Striking!
Strike down!
To the ground!

Since I discovered this band from Stevie T, I like how this song has a mixture of metalcore and heavy metal. It's my favorite song of all time.
