For us we write this song, for our metal gods.
We ask of them to guide us through this despair,
We need all the power and might to stay strong,
From the world we face every day.
We must believe in one thing!

Metal is the way, to guide your life
Metal is the way, with fist in the air,
Metal is the way, to follow your dreams,
Metal is the way, the only way.

We must all choose one path; the path is freedom.
Our lives will depend where we go from this stage.
We will win this war, against our tormentors,
Then we shall receive our flag our glory.

Standing here with our flag of glory, we've escaped from purgatory,
From here on we will be free; we have made blind people see that,
Our declaration is carved in stone; I told you that we were not alone,
So now you know, METAL IS THE WAY!
