Raise the Flag Lyrics

Call me a loafer - call me a quitter
With a lack of use
No direction, just imperfection
Born to lose

No reputation no education
Just make believe
No happy-end in fairyland
Don't misperceive

They say: get real, here's the deal
Your life is down the drain
But I'm intending to keep on standing
Against the grain

They don't me us at all
It's the music that I'm bleeding for

So raise the flag
Raise the flag of metal
Raise the flag
The flag of heavy metal

It's a vibe you can't describe
If you know what I mean
No stopping just rocking
As long as lights will gleam

Rock hard, ride free and live it loud
I keep my thunder
Won't knuckle under
Cause that's what life's about

They don't know us at all
It's the music that we're bleeding for

So raise the flag
Raise the flag of metal
Raise the flag
The flag of heavy metal

Energizing and vitalizing
We're standing strong
Rain or shine we'll hold the line
We'll carry on
Raise the flag
Raise the flag of metal
Raise the flag
The flag of heavy metal
