The First Warrior
Steel Warrior Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ancient warrior your home is here
Your loyal sword always serving the king
Friend of the nomads, storms and winds
Words of wisdom are your legacy

Mountains of gold
Never buy real pride
Come to the war, or die!
Honor are blades
Slashing through evil blood
Fight like a man, or die!
Freedom to me has no price!

We are warriors of time and dimensions
And your wisdom revive us to fight
Always holding the flag of redemption
With the shine of the moon 'till we ride

[Solo: Boon]
[Solo: Andre]

Ancient warrior forgive our faults
My fight is your fight, your blood is my blood




We are stronger in the council of faith
Forever together, forever we stay!

Muito foda! Pena que o vocalista mudou o estilo de cantar do 1o pros outros CDs, o vocal do 1o CD era o melhor: limpo e nada forçado.

Abreu Silva Júnior

Concordo plenamente! Eles lançaram um CDR com as músicas desse disco,mas com o vocal mais limpo, na pegada do "Visions From The Mistlands" e ficou perfeito,na minha opinião! Esse disco já é bom, mas a outra que eu peguei é ultra clássica! Eu admiro muito o trabalho do STEEL WARRIOR.
