Lyrics
[Intro]
Iron breath across the valley
Ash turns red beneath the dawn
From the hills a call is rising
The hour comes, the wait is gone
[Verse 1]
Leather hands on battered timber
Strike the skin and wake the ground
Every gate along the border
Answers with a deeper sound
Stand beside me, brother, sister
Tie your colors to the spear
What we guard is more than stone walls
It is every voice we hear
[Pre-Chorus]
When the first fire crowns the tower
When the ravens wheel and cry
Hold the line through fear and thunder
Let no promise die
[Chorus]
Drums of war, carry our vow
Call every heart to the ramparts now
Through the flame, through the rain
We will rise and return again
Drums of war, thunder and roar
Wake the old courage buried in the core
If the night demands our name
We will answer in the flame
[Verse 2]
Bronze and leather, dust and banners
Boots are pounding into time
From the forge to frozen watchtowers
Every road becomes a line
Hear the horns beyond the ridges
See the standards cut the air
No one fights alone in darkness
No one bears the burden there
[Pre-Chorus]
When the distant hills are burning
When the fields begin to shake
Raise your shield beside your neighbor
For the living's sake
[Chorus]
Drums of war, carry our vow
Call every heart to the ramparts now
Through the flame, through the rain
We will rise and return again
Drums of war, thunder and roar
Wake the old courage buried in the core
If the night demands our name
We will answer in the flame
[Bridge]
Let the fallen rest in honor
Let the children learn the cost
We are not the steel we carry
We are all that must not be lost
[Instrumental]
[Final Chorus]
Drums of war, carry our vow
Call every heart to the ramparts now
Through the flame, through the rain
We will rise and return again
Drums of war, thunder and roar
Wake the old courage buried in the core
If the night demands our name
We will answer in the flame
[Outro]
When the last red ember fades
And the wounded morning starts
May the drums that called us forward
Beat as peace within our hearts

Style
Symphonic power metal at temp=fast tempo, driven by galloping double-kick drums, tight palm-muted rhythm guitars, soaring lead guitar harmonies, heroic brass and sweeping orchestral strings. Build from a tense orchestral opening into explosive verses, a huge sing-along chorus, a dramatic half-time bridge, then a final key-lifted chorus. Clean powerful high-register lead vocals, layered choir responses, crisp modern metal production with wide guitars, punchy low end, and cinematic dynamics.
