Lyrics
Verse 1
There's a legend spoken of an ancient blade
Forged when the first ancestral oath was made
From the blood of giants and the darkest ore
To lead us through the fire and the roar of war
Verse 2
For centuries it rested still and cold
Its story lost, its glory left untold
Embedded in the stone and ice it lay
While time eroded all its silver grey
Pre-Chorus
Rusted, worn, and broken
The sword that had been spoken of
Chorus
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Verse 3
A thousand years of slumbering in the ground
While all our foes were gathering all around
The rusted edge was blunt and full of scars
A silent witness to our fathers' wars
Verse 4
Yet when the time was right, the blade did call
A sign was sent to save us from our fall
The chosen one stepped forward to the stone
To prove the strength that he had never known
Pre-Chorus
Rusted, worn, and broken
The sword that had been spoken of
Chorus
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Bridge
Now the blade is ours once more (Awaken, awaken!)
It will lead us to the shore (Awaken, awaken!)
Of the land our fathers swore (Awaken, awaken!)
And our enemies shall fall (Awaken, awaken!)
As we answer to the call (Awaken, awaken!)
We are coming for them all (Awaken, awaken!)
Guitar Solo
Chorus
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
Outro
Awaken, steel of heroes
Rise and claim the kingdom
Awaken, sword of legends
Rise and claim your glory
