Zonata Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On top of my wheels of steel
You're trying to hide away from me
I'm wearing my belt of strength
Along with my iron-gloves
My power is strong and glorious
Cause I am Thor (The ThunderGod)
And I decide where the lightning strikes
If You don't believe it
My hammer will show You how
When You sail through the seas
In search for glory and gold
Winds carrying You away from home
You better pray for You're life's
And sacrifice to me now
You better watch out cause I am near
Why the heavens scream my name I will tell You now
Cause I am Thor (The ThunderGod)
And I decide where the lightning strikes
If You don't believe it
My hammer will show You how
When You see clouds ahead
And rain is pouring down
There is no time for You to pray
I'm raising my hammer high
To swing it with all my might
My power is strong and glorious
Why the heavens scream my name I will tell You now
Cause I am Thor (The ThunderGod)
And I decide where the lightning strikes
If You don't believe it
My hammer will show You how
Zonata's "Thor" is a powerful heavy metal track filled with thunderous riffs and empowering lyrics. The song refers to the mythical Norse god, Thor, who is known to be the god of thunder and lightning. The lyrics start with Thor flying high on his wheels of steel, while the others try to hide from him. Thor then boasts about his strength and power, stating how glorious it is. He describes how he decides where lightning strikes and commands people to believe in him, or else his hammer will show them the truth.
The song then speaks about Thor being worshipped and sacrifices being made to him to save lives. Thor warns people to beware of his presence for he is near. The song ends with a message of hope- as the rains pour down, Thor raises his hammer high to swing it with all his might, and the heavens scream his name, portraying him as the all-powerful god.
Overall, the song reflects the power of the mythical figure who embodies strength, courage, and desire to rule over the natural universe.
