Do You Know What You're Fighting For?
Helloween · Keeper Of The Seven Keys - The Legacy [2005]
The line of fate in them may not pay your loans
You got to keep goin' and goin' on strive day by day
Do you know, uh, will they need you, do?
Do you know what you're fighting for?
The seed is sown but we don't know the score
They will rule us, this breed of futility
You won't make an escape 'cause we will still be alive
Disenchantment, alienation
A slog to feed future estranged generations
And, retired, will you get rewarded, your brave restraint?
Do you know, uh, do you know, do?
Do you know what you're fighting for?
The seed is sown but we don't know the score
They will rule us, this breed of futility
You won't make an escape 'cause we will still be alive, uh, still be alive...
Do you know what you're fighting for?
The seed is sown but we don't know the score
They will rule us, this breed of futility
You won't make an escape 'cause we will still be alive
Do you know what you're fighting for?
The seed is sown but we don't know the score
They will rule us, this breed of futility
You won't make an escape 'cause we will still be alive
Uh, will they need you, will they, will they pay you?
Will they need you?
