Fire and Ice

Opens with heavy distorted guitars and double bass drumming; verses ride on palm-muted riffs and aggressive bass, punctuated by sharp rhythmic changes. Intense male vocals roar over urgent, layered instrumentation, building to explosive. Lyrics: oooooouuuuuaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh Hey! Hey! (echo) Bells are ringing - trumpets scream War drums pound in fearless hearts Wave by wave, human bodies Marching forward Born free! Locked in motion round the Sun I fuel my cells - ignition won Fire blood, ancestral flame This frozen world can't say my name This ice has no hold on me I burn from within I am the fire! The torch that carries on Ice can't touch me! I melt cold hands Born to question All your rules This soul Is not not your slave Poisoned lands - dicamba rains I warned you all, now taste the blame Whips once kissed our broken skin The scars remain - carved deep within My eyes saw plans you build for years Fed by silence, fear and tears But now the clock has bled it's time This voice is mine, this rage is mine! This ice has no hold on me I burn from within I am the fire! The torch that carries on Ice can't touch me I melt cold hands Born to question all your rules This soul is not your slave Oppressed Depressed Still I howl at the Moon Heart flooded With dead men's dreams Shadow bred Shadow fed But I stand - alone ALONE BACKED BY FIRE oooooouuuuuaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh Fire growing Fire rising Fire speaking through my bones This ice has no hold on me I burn from within I am the fire! Tourch of my ancestors Ice can't touch me I melt cold hands Born to question all your rules This soul Is Not Your Slave Freedom! (backed by the fire) Freedom! (backed by the fire) Freedom!
