Verse 1 - Disturbed's Perspective)
Yo, listen up, old school's got its place, no doubt
But when it comes to power, we're the ones to shout out
Disturbed in the house, a modern metal machine
David Draiman on the mic, a vocal scream supreme.
You talk about speed, but we bring the groove
Riffs so heavy, they make the concrete move.
"Down with the Sickness," a primal, guttural roar
You built the foundation, but we kicked down the door.
Your thrash was a flash, a wild, youthful spree
We evolved, adapted, for all the world to see.
We own the charts, number one, time and again
While your "Black Album" days, they feel like way back when.
So step aside, legends, your reign is coming to an end
The new kings are here, our power will transcend.
We're harder, we're stronger, we hit you where it counts
With every thunderous beat, our dominance amounts!
(Chorus)
Titan showdown, amps are blazing, speakers blow!
Who rocks harder? The answer you will know!
One a legacy, the other raw, modern might
In this metal arena, we're ready for the fight!
From the mosh pit deep, to the arena's roar,
Hear the verdict drop, settle the score!
(Verse 2 - Metallica's Perspective)
Hold on, little pup, you barking up the wrong tree
Before your band formed, we were setting metal free.
"Master of Puppets," "Ride the Lightning," true thrash decree
The architects of chaos, that's what we guarantee.
You talk about charts? We filled stadiums worldwide
Our influence stretches, nowhere left to hide.
You got a catchy scream, a marketable sound, sure
But we forged the genre, built it from the core.
We broke the mainstream, without diluting our bite
Every riff a legend, burning ever so bright.
From garages to arenas, a forty-year reign
Tried and true, son, we weathered all the pain.
You're a product of us, a derivative wave
We laid the groundwork, the metal path we paved.
So when you talk "harder," remember where you stand
We're Metallica, baby, the undisputed metal band!
(Chorus)
Titan showdown, amps are blazing, speakers blow!
Who rocks harder? The answer you will know!
One a legacy, the other raw, modern might
In this metal arena, we're ready for the fight!
From the mosh pit deep, to the arena's roar,
Hear the verdict drop, settle the score!
(Bridge)
Disturbed, with their anthems, a modern-day call
Metallica, the foundation, standing mighty and tall.
One's got the aggression, raw and in your face
The other's a journey, setting a blistering pace.
It's not about new or old, but the impact you make
The ferocity, the power, for goodness sake!
(Outro)
So who rocks harder? The debate will rage on
But the spirit of metal, it will never be gone!
Whether chugging new grooves or thrashing with might,
Both ignite the fire, burning ever so bright!
