Lyrics
The blood's getting hot
The intensity and excitement are rising.
No matter what you've got
Regardless of your possessions or status.
You can't stop the roll of the thunder (yeah)
Resistance is futile against the powerful force represented by the metaphorical "roll of thunder."
You wanna take a shot
You desire to take a chance or make a move.
So give me all you've got
Give your maximum effort or commitment.
Can't break the spell that I'm under (no)
Unable to escape the enchantment or influence.
And the battle never ends
Conflict persists without resolution.
And the soldiers never die
Symbolic immortality of soldiers engaged in a continuous struggle.
And you don't back down
Refusal to yield or retreat.
And you don't pretend when you look them in the eye
Honest and direct confrontation without deception.
And it all comes down
Everything culminates in a crucial moment.
To the wall of sound
The pivotal point is represented by the "wall of sound."
Yeah, and it all comes down
When it all goes wrong
In challenging times, one must remain resilient.
You've got to be strong
In the face of adversity, inner strength is essential.
The rest of the world's going to shatter
The world may be in chaos, but it's irrelevant.
It doesn't matter
Irrespective of external circumstances.
Let the floods go raging by
Allow external disturbances to pass without affecting you.
Let the sinners wash away
Let the wrongdoers face consequences and be cleansed.
To the dark of man there's a ray of light
Even in the darkness of humanity, there's a glimmer of hope.
There begins another day
A new day begins, bringing possibilities.
And it all comes down
Reiteration of the significance of the "wall of sound."
To the wall of sound (ooh)
Yeah!
-And the battle never ends
Continuous battle with no resolution.
And the soldiers never die
Eternal nature of the struggle symbolized by soldiers.
And you don't back down
Refusal to surrender or compromise.
And you pretend when you look them in the eye
Honesty and authenticity when confronting challenges.
Yeah!
And we all bow down
A collective acknowledgment of the power of the "wall of sound."
To the wall of sound
Yeah, we all bow down
-To the wall of sound
-Bow down
A literal bowing down or paying homage to the significance.
Yeah, bow down
Bow down
Repetition of the act of bowing down.
