Ancient legends told us In a strange land far away A yoke of slavery Reigned with no freedom again People heard the call of duty Lots of money made no beauty And they made heavy metal And they followed their hearts Hear the music loud and stomp All your troubles with this song Loneliness was never real We're your friends and we are here! That is what their message says That's why they fought and never fell Honour you and honour them Drinking with us, happy again Oh, we live and we play loud Oh, black standards with great sound Just be guided by your soul Full of pride and with no god But also remember Don't forget why they have fought To make the world a better place To make you feel good always Their memories we should spread We'll never be enslaved again Oh, we live and we play loud Oh, black standards with great sound Oh, we live and we play loud Oh, black standards with great sound
