lyrics

We ready to rock and roll
We ready to rock and roll

Mystery walls take our lives like the morning dew during sunrise
You never let go of the past that shattered your heart into broken pieces
Don’t cry over split milk, there is always another day, always another cow
We will face the battle like Ray Lewis coming out of the tunnel
The time is here and now on the grid iron with no inches to give up

We ready to rock and roll
We ready to rock and roll

So I am marching with a renewed sense of optimism
Call me Malcolm I refuse all the little ways of the dark
The times never change; our foes are still at the bay
Ready to pounce on the jaded and misguided so put on your chinstraps
And line up in the trenches because all is lost and won at the heart

We ready to rock and roll
We ready to rock and roll
