Let It Roar
Virgin Steele Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Killing for freedom's gain
My sword, hands held high
Together we stem the tide
And
[Chorus:]
Let it roar- let the lion in you raise its head and roar
Let it roar- let the lion in you come right out and roar
Pounding, the blood runs red
In power we call to arms
Rising a million strong
[Chorus]
Cry out, life's a struggle but it's worth the price
With fists of fire we can melt the ice
Behold the king who wears the crown of hate
I think we're gonna break him!
Listen, the devil won't be coming here today
Even death can take an holiday
Shout it loud 'cross the land
Freedom is alive now!
Roar!!!
[Chorus]
Roar, roar, roar- together
Roar, roar, roar- I can't hear ya
Roar, roar, roar- let it...
ROAR!!
