RIOT LYRICS

1. Ride Hard Live Free

Rising above me the eagles unleash
A downpoor of fire and steel
A mission for freedom with hearts made of stone
Relentless attacking at will

The fighters give chase till it's done
Their fury is second to none

She flies high across the crimson sky
To seek out our foe, the demons in disguise
Ride hard live free the battle rages on

Racing with vengeance the gypsy she burns
The enemy hot on her heels
Night skies on fire, the devil's desire
To heighten the pain that one feels

The fighters give chase till it's done
Their fury is second to none

She flies high across the crimson sky
To seek out our foe, the demons in disguise
She dances on fire at speed of light
To challenge the devil to another fight
Ride hard live free the battle rages on

She flies high across the crimson sky
To seek out our foe, the demons in disguise
She dances on fire at speed of light
To challenge the devil to another fight
Ride hard live free the battle rages on

Ride hard live free
Ride hard live free

2. Metal Warrior

Riding the thunder, black leather that shines
Leaving this city and memories behind
Will I return and back on these streets again
Will I crash and burn?

Back alley ways they're calling my name
Unleashing the rebel, this man I became
I lived and I lied and on these roads again
My street will ride

Raise your fists up to our brother man
Johnny lead us to your promised land

Ride on with strength and will
Raise up your blackened shield
Fly high on your wings of steel
Shine on metal warrior

Crowned me your king, I am the chosen one
Leading my way I am second to none
You call out my name, but in the end I've learned
That it's all the same

The love I felt for these bloodstreets I roam
This concrete jungle I once called my home
I lived my life fast and now I running from
My checkered past

Raise your fists up to our brother man
Johnny lead us to your promised land

Ride on with strength and will
Raise up your blackened shield
Fly high on your wings of steel
Shine on metal warrior

Riding fast as lightning, racing with the wind
Rolling with a fury, a fire burns within
The angry beast is howling, raging down below
Dancing with the devil, heavy metal thunder

Raise your fists up to our brother man
Johnny lead us to your promised land

Ride on with strength and will
Raise up your blackened shield
Fly high on your wings of steel
Shine on metal warrior
Shine on metal warrior
Metal warrior

3. Fall From The Sky

Since I was young, I've wanted to soar
Free through the air on wings of steel
In the realm of eagles
I would touch the sky

Through discipline and sacrifice
Training complete, I'm ready to fight
For God and country
I will give my life

Take to the air
All our fighters rise
We must defend our land

Light up the sky with flames
Rolling and driving to line up the foe in our sights
Fighting as brothers
As we all watch our enemies fall from the sky
Fall from the sky

Imperiling thoughts steal into my mind
About my family waiting at home
Will they be proud of me
Even if I fail?

The task at hand is easy enough
If I ignore my foe is a man
With a family of his own
To be left alone

Take to the air
All our fighters rise
We must defend our land

Light up the sky with flames
Rolling and driving to line up the foe in our sights
Fighting as brothers
As we all watch our enemies fall from the sky
Fall from the sky

Light up the sky with flames
Rolling and driving to line up the foe in our sights
Fighting as brothers
As we all watch our enemies fall from the sky
Fall from the sky
Fall from the sky

4. Bring The Hammer Down

Even the most docile man has his limit
The point beyond which he can't go
Only a fool would damage a man's spirit
And not expect him to explode

There comes that moment
One must fight to survive

Bring the hammer down
Strike with fury and force
Bring the hammer down
Hands of fate will set the course
Bring the hammer

It makes no sense to go looking for a trouble
A wiser man awoids the stride
When tempers flare, decorum with crumble
There are no rules in the fight for life

There comes that moment
One must fight to survive

Bring the hammer down
Strike with fury and force
Bring the hammer down
Hands of fate will set the course
Bring the hammer

Even the most docile man has his limit
The point beyond which he can't go
Only a fool would damage a man's spirit
And not expect him to explode

There comes that moment
One must fight to survive

Bring the hammer down
Strike with fury and force
Bring the hammer down
Hands of fate will set the course
Bring the hammer

Bring the hammer down
Strike with fury and force
Bring the hammer down
Hands of fate will set the course
Bring the hammer

5. Unleash The Fire

There's a charge in the air
As if it will ignite
So much furl, one little spark
Will set the room alight
Alright, unleash the fire

Anticipating what's to come
Eager hearts start to race
Thunder rumbles and lights come up
As power fills this place

Something comes over me
When I hear the crowd roar
Stoking the blaze inside
As I come back for more

Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire in your soul
Can't fight desire
The hunger burns out of control
Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire

Alright, unleash the fire
Feeding off your energy
The power is magnified
Burning up 'til it overflows
Returning amplified

Something comes over me
When I hear the crowd roar
Stoking the blaze inside
As I come back for more

Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire in your soul
Can't fight desire
The hunger burns out of control

Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire in your soul
Can't fight desire
The hunger burns out of control
Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire
Unleash the fire

6. Land Of The Rising Sun

On wings of eagles we soar
Headed across the Asian seas
A distant thunder roaring
Closing in our destiny

We touch down in Narita
The masses were a sight to see
Headed toward the city
Tokyo rose, she waits for me

Shine on, the gift of love is through our song
Shine on, the people sing along

Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun

Fight or fall we chanted
Fists held high and voices strong
A universal language
In music we create a bond

With open arms we're welcomed
Your warriors, we came to play
A night of metal magic
Mark and Masa lead the way

Shine on, the gift of love is through our song
Shine on, the people sing along

Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun

Shine on was our battle cry
Hand in hand 'til the day we die

Shine on, the gift of love is through our song
Shine on, the people sing along

Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun
Ah, the Land of the Rising Sun

7. Kill To Survive

Lately I've become a sort of stranger to myself
Living on a broken dreams trapped in my private hell
I don't know what to think or feel inside
Lost it all when I left my soul behind
Build a mighty fortress on my grave

Lightning cracks the sky
Raising hordes of angels
Weary of this world

Fighting, raging through the battle, warrior
Kingdoms washed into the sea
Spirits cast the spell of darkness, glorious
Madness reigns in all our lives

Kill to survive
Kill to survive

All the magic's fading and the war will never end
Blooded bodies butchered by the demons in my head
I gotta feeling I know what you might say
I gotta feeling it's time to get away
I gotta feeling that we've both go insane

Lightning cracks the sky
Raising hordes of angels
Weary of this world

Fighting, raging through the battle, warrior
Kingdoms washed into the sea
Spirits cast the spell of darkness, glorious
Madness reigns in all our lives

My wretched soul
In burning bright
Your blackened heart
To kill is to survive

Lightning cracks the sky
Raising hordes of angels
Weary of this world

Fighting, raging through the battle, warrior
Kingdoms washed into the sea
Spirits cast the spell of darkness, glorious
Madness reigns in all our lives

Fighting, raging through the battle, warrior
Kingdoms washed into the sea
Spirits cast the spell of darkness, glorious
Madness reigns in all our lives
Madness reigns in all our lives

Kill to survive
Yeah, Kill to survive!

8. Return Of The Outlaw

Sundown at th edge of town
A dark figure approaches
He needs no introduction
Everyone knows who he is

They say he shot a man dead in San Antone
And two more in Memphis
Deeds are the measure of a man
So don't take your chances

When Six Gun Sal rides into town
Nobody wants to be around
Shut your mouth, forget what you saw
It's Six Gun Sal, return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw

Weathered skin and a heart of stone
A lonely desperado
Cold black eyes with deeds to match
His grit is not bravado

When Six Gun Sal rides into town
Nobody wants to be around
Shut your mouth, forget what you saw
It's Six Gun Sal

Rumor travels faster than sound
Cross him boy and you'll be in the ground
His fuse is short and he's quick on the draw
Six Gun Sal, return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw

When Six Gun Sal rides into town
Nobody wants to be around
Shut your mouth, forget what you saw
It's Six Gun Sal

Rumor travels faster than sound
Cross him boy and you'll be in the ground
His fuse is short and he's quick on the draw
Six Gun Sal, return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw
Return of the outlaw

9. Immortal

Just a young man with hopes and dreams
Full of passion
Willing to share your gifts with the world
Outside

Your time on this earth was so very brief
But your star burned so bright
You encouraged us to shine
Shine on

In simple ways you did inspire
So many people
Forming a clan spread around the world
Your tribe

Your time on this earth was so very brief
But your star burned so bright
You encouraged us to shine

Shine on through the darkest night
Your music is eternal
Through your soul has touched the sky
Through your songs you are immortal
You are immortal

Did we make your dreams come true
With our passion?
Rest in peace assured we still hold
Your light

Your time on this earth was so very brief
But your star burned so bright
You encouraged us to shine

Shine on through the darkest night
Your music is eternal
Through your soul has touched the sky
Through your songs you are immortal
You are immortal
You are immortal

10. Take Me Back

Remember the city lights
With friends by our side
Running streets wild
Chasing down all our dreams
Our fears cast aside

Laughing, rocking
Drinking, fighting
We felt so alive
The air electric
There was no stopping
Young hearts filled with drive

One more time
Let's light up the road
Feel the wind in our hair
Say the word
Name the time and the place
You know I will be there

Come, take me back
To the time
We were young and headstrong
Oh, take me back
To that place
Where I belong

They say you can never return
Those days are dead and gone
But we write our story
With guts and with glory
Our dreams live on

One more time
Let's light up the road
Feel the wind in our hair
Say the word
Name the time and the place
You know I will be there

Come, take me back
To the time
We were young and headstrong
Oh, take me back
To that place
Where I belong

One more time
Let's light up the road
Feel the wind in our hair
Say the word
Name the time and the place
You know I will be there

Come, take me back
To the time
We were young and headstrong
Oh, take me back
To that place
Where I belong

Remember the city lights
With friends by our side
Come, take me back

Take me back, come on!

Flag bearers for metal
It runs through our veins

Our defiance is a source of pride
Brothers of metal we stand unified

12. Until We Meet Again

My old friend, has a really been another year
Life goes on, but it's not the same without you here
Still find myself
Grabbing a phone to give you a call

I was young when you came and took me under your wing
To become a friend, a brother and a blessing

You gave me a chance to have my own voice be heard
And did not ask anything from me in return

Together we'd kick back and create some songs to share
Melodies sung in unison like an evening prayer

Childhood dreams, taking our music all around the world
Memories of us making our fantasies come alive

Until we meet again my friend
We will join and sing along
Until we meet again my friend
We will celebrate your song

Until we meet again my friend
We will join and sing along
Until we meet again my friend
We will celebrate your song

Until we meet again my friend
We will join and sing along
Until we meet again my friend
We will celebrate your song
