========= Hail To The King LYRICS ==========

Once we lived in harmony, but it seems so distant now.
Even though it wasn’t long ago, we’re all doomed to plague and death.
Working hard from dawn ’til dusk.
But that ain’t enough for him
Product of unholy love, untrue brother of a king.

Know that you’ll fail, now hear us hail
Your brother that you killed.

Hail to the king that brought peace to us all.
Rise from your grave, hear our call.
We’ll not forget that you once saved our land.
Killed by your own brother’s hand.

Pure evil and cruelty, the true nature of your soul
Mercy and responsibility, words that you can’t understand.
Your quest for total control will only end in your own fall.
We will fight for our freedom and our right to live.

Do it your way, soon you will pay
Debts with your own blood.

Stars so bright, dance in the night
Day come soon, hide the moon
Stars so bright dance in the night
Day come soon, killing the moon

Morning breaks it’s time to march, to the castle of betrayal.
Bring your sword, wield your armour, we won’t take this anymore.
Kill the tyrant he must die, for his falseness and his crimes.
Strike him down, and slay his guards, and his ministers as well.

Done it your way, now you will pay
Debts with your own blood.

I saw the title and instantly thought Sabaton covered Avenged Sevenfold in a metal way. I was not disappointed despite this not being a cover.

[The-Plaguefellow]

Holy shit, Metalizer finally getting some love on this channel?!

God, what I'd give to hear these songs get remade with the now more-refined, 20+ years-running Sabaton!

[RPGTKingpin]

As awesome as this is, I think the best part about it is it shows just how much Sabaton has grown as a band. The lyric video is great, Joakim's voice is stellar as always, and the guitar and drum work are electrifying, but you guys have really knocked it out of the park with your development lyrically in the past 15 years. Old Sabaton was awesome. Modern Sabaton is a religious experience.

Honestly, one of my favorite Sabaton songs. Metalizer as an album is just underrated in general

[goldiegolderman]

*GLORY TO THE GOD EMPEROR! WE WALK IN HIS LIGHT!*

[SynBozyKtoryGladziGrzechy]

Sabaton like always releasing bangers. Can't stop listening to this ever since I found it.

[WendigoCreations-zypm]

Why is it so hard for people to understand that the music sounds off because its like 20 years old and their English wasn't fully refined back then?

This is the song that made me fall in love with Sabaton in 2009! Finally a lyrics video for it! Thank you sooo sooo much!!

[tommycoolatta]

In my opinion, this is the most genuinely underrated song Sabaton's ever made.

[scavenger]

Who they talking about? Vlad? Every 3rd dude in a British Line?

[tahzicgaming]

This song would sound amazing if it got a remaster

[MrSororitas]

Great classic, kinda surprised that it got the whole lyric video treatment but I love it.
Thanks

[_SPADES]

imagine this song with biblical references, like the star they talk about is the holy spirit,
the sun is God,

the land they talk about is biblical Isreal,

Satan is the moon,

[insomniumeternum]

Funny AI generated pictures, poor soldiers have to wield their broken swords with crippled fingers 1:10 :)

[historyandpoliticsexplaine]

if you truly hear the call, remember its an obligation to rule not a right. Stand proud.

[KatyaMoskaleva]

Let me say this - I REALLY LIKE IT! COOL! Sabaton, continue to delight your fans with your creativity!👍❤🤘

[Northerner-Not-A-Doctor]

Remember guys: restoring justice, peace and harmony we'll take no captives.

[thestone]

One minute in and this gives me such an Bram Stokers Dracula vibe! Keep expecting Gary Oldman to show up as Vlad III

[Tome]

is it just me or does this song seem like it's talking about Shakespeare's play hamlet

[Mullgutz]

Days coming soon, , hide the moon, , classic ✌🏻
