This powerful anthem 🎸 is a vivid portrayal of a ruthless and oppressive regime, with the 'King' symbolizing an authoritarian figure. The lyrics depict a grim scenario where freedom is curtailed, fear prevails and the cost of dissent is life itself. The call to "Hail to the King" is not out of respect but enforced submission. It's a critique of power that's wielded without mercy or justice, leaving citizens in a state of perpetual fear and uncertainty. The repeated refrain "Stand in the sun" suggests exposure and vulnerability under this reign 👑. However, it also subtly hints at hope, implying that even under such circumstances, resistance and resilience can shine through.
Hail to the King
Lyrics
Watch your tongue or have it cut from your head
Save your life by keeping whispers unsaid
Children roam the streets now orphans of war
Bodies hanging in the streets to adore
Royal flames will carve a path in chaos
Bringing daylight to the night (night)
Death is riding into town with armor
They come to take all your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
(Hail, hail, hail)
(The King)
Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne
Born again but it's too late to atone
No mercy from the edge of the blade
Dare escape and learn the price to be paid
Let the water flow with shades of red now
Arrows black out all the light (light)
Death is riding into town with armor
They come to grant you your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
(Hail, hail, hail)
(The King)
There's a taste of fear (hail, hail, hail)
When the henchmen call (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to tame the land (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to claim it all
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
(Hail, hail, hail)
