[Synth Intro]
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won’t”
[Guitar Solo]
(Verse 1)
March first falls at nineteen hundred hours
Thirteen hundred miles to war
Rebels waiting through the night
Out of Zancudo ready to fight
Marching for the western shore
(Verse 2)
Washington gives the order to strike
Restore control at any cost
Driving the rebels from their strongholds
Taking back what once was lost
(Pre-Chorus 1)
Mechanized force and naval power
Rolling through the night
Who will dare to stand before us?
Face the armored might
(Chorus)
Shield!
Death in the wake of a coastal invasion
Shield rolls on, your lines will fold
Thunder of track and of gun
When the storm arrives, your lines shall not hold
Rebel forces fall in the sun!
(Verse 3)
Thousands of tons of armor and steel
Grinding through dust and rain
Abrams and Bradleys break their spine
Artillery pounds the plain
(Verse 4)
First strike is ours, no mercy is shown
Fire and smoke in our wake
Breaking the rebel defense with our steel
No step backward we take
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Gunships sweep the roads before us
Ready for the storm
Barricades are torn asunder
A new line is born
(Chorus)
Shield!
Death in the wake of a coastal invasion
Shield rolls on, your lines will fold
Thunder of track and of gun
When the storm arrives, your lines shall not hold
Rebel forces fall in the sun!
[Guitar Solo]
[Keyboard Solo]
(Verse 5)
Morning breaks through smoke and ash
The battlefield lies still
Stars and stripes over San Andreas
Flying above the hills
(Pre-Chorus 3)
Mechanized force and naval power
Rolling through the night
Who will dare to stand before us?
Face the armored might
(Final Chorus)
Shield!
Death in the wake of a coastal invasion
Shield rolls on, your lines will fold
Thunder of track and of gun
When the storm arrives, your lines shall not hold
Rebel forces fall in the sun!
Shield!
March first written in fire and rain
Old borders shattered and remade
Under the roar of track and gun
History burns beneath the sun!
(Outro)
Shield!
The sky is now burning!
Shield!
A lesson in war!
Shield!
The rebels are hurting!
Shield!
Revenge of the Corps!
Shield!
Forces inserting!
Shield has been won!
Stahlkrieg
