Declaration Day Iced Earth (Ft. Matt Barlow)

[Segue: Verse 1 – Tim "Ripper" Owens]
A desperate situation
Forced to retaliation
The task ahead, a burden
Men will suffer, that's for certain
We're charging to the fire
The cause we must inspire
We raise our fists to tyranny
A high price, freedom is not free

[Verse 2 – Tim "Ripper" Owens]
The odds are stacked against us
But with our resolve relentless
An arrogance, their weakness
Our cause is just, we won't be beaten
Upon this declaration
Will come a grand new nation
Where men are seen as equal
Governed by for the people

[Chorus: Tim "Ripper" Owens & Matt Barlow]
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
For independence I will fight
With liberty I will defy
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
Give me liberty or give me death
I'll fight 'till my last breath
