They can't stop us,   Let 'em try!   For heavy metal   We will die!      Quit my job this morning said; forever   I would hold my head up high.   Cause I need metal in my life,   Just like an eagle needs to fly.      So I walked outside into the street,   From a hall I heard thunder and screams.   I walked inside so I could hear,   And the guy beside me gave me a beer!      He had his fist up in the air   And called me brother said; my friends   Are over there...      They call themselves immortals,   They're the truest of the true   And in that very moment,   I was born again like you!      They said hold your head up high,   Raise your fist up in the air,   Play metal louder than hell!   Louder than hell!      They can't stop us,   Let 'em try!   For heavy metal   We would die!      Brothers stand beside me, as I battle on   Know my words are true.   There's a battle for true metal.   They're marching; they're marching on   Me and you!      Ten thousand strong are here tonight,   With twenty thousand fists up in the air.   The power of true metal's calling you,   It's everywhere!      Hold your head up high,   Raise your fist up in the air,   Play metal louder than hell!   Louder than hell!      They can't stop us,   Let 'em try!   For heavy metal   We would die!
