Echoes of Defiance

Thunder cracks the midnight sky Born in the fire of a rebel's cry From the streets where the wild hearts beat Electric veins pulse with the heat Guitars scream like a storm unleashed Drums pound and secrets never cease We rise from the ashes, face in the air Chasing the lightning without a care Oh, rock and roll You set my soul on fire Distorted riffs that take me higher Powerful voices breaking through the night Strong rhythms shaking, holding on tight We're alive in the roar, feel the power surge Guitar-driven thunder on the edge of the earth Rock and roll, forever we'll ride In the heart of the storm we won't hide Roots in the juke joints, sweat and sin Twisted amps where the legends begin Basslines crawling like shadows deep Vocals howling, no promises to keep From the 50s blaze to the endless road We shatter the silence, carry the load Rebellious spirits, unbound and free In every chord, eternity Oh, rock and roll You set my soul on fire Distorted riffs that take me higher Powerful voices breaking through the night Strong rhythms shaking, holding on tight We're alive in the roar, feel the power surge Guitar-driven thunder on the edge of the earth Rock and roll, forever we'll ride In the heart of the storm we won't hide Slow the burn, let the soul awail Echoes of heroes, their stories prevail Feel the distortion tear through your core Empowering ethos, craving roar No change can hold this roar Amplified dream from the USA heartland To the global scream We're the pulse, the fury, the unbreakable fight Rockless, eternal, igniting the night Oh, rock and roll You set my soul on fire Distorted riffs that take me higher Powerful voices breaking through the night Strong rhythms shaking, holding on tight We're alive in the roar, feel the power surge Guitar-driven thunder on the edge of the earth Rock and roll, forever we'll ride In the heart of the storm we won't hide Thunder fades but the echo remains In every beat we break the chains Rock and roll
