Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dust on his coat
Old hat pulled low
He walked out of the Museum
Said, "We ain't hidin' no more" (hey!)
Beacon Hill to Quincy
Word spread hand to hand
"Grab your rifle, grab your courage
We’re takin’ back this land"
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
[Verse 2]
Shacks turned to strongholds
Fields fenced with steel
Turrets on the rooftops
Hope you can feel
Used to bow to the monsters
Now they’re runnin’ scared
When that siren starts singin’
They know justice is there (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
[Bridge]
He said, "No more lonely settlers
Callin’ out in vain"
Now every flare that’s burnin’
Brings thunder, dust, and rain
From Sanctuary’s river
To that broken eastern shore
This Commonwealth is standin’
Like it never stood before
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
Dust on his coat
Old hat pulled low
He walked out of the Museum
Said, "We ain't hidin' no more" (hey!)
Beacon Hill to Quincy
Word spread hand to hand
"Grab your rifle, grab your courage
We’re takin’ back this land"
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
[Verse 2]
Shacks turned to strongholds
Fields fenced with steel
Turrets on the rooftops
Hope you can feel
Used to bow to the monsters
Now they’re runnin’ scared
When that siren starts singin’
They know justice is there (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
[Bridge]
He said, "No more lonely settlers
Callin’ out in vain"
Now every flare that’s burnin’
Brings thunder, dust, and rain
From Sanctuary’s river
To that broken eastern shore
This Commonwealth is standin’
Like it never stood before
[Chorus]
Minutemen flyin’ high across the Commonwealth sky
Grand airship throwin’ shadows where the raiders used to ride
Vertibirds hummin’ low, APCs rollin’ wide
From the farms to the ruins, hear the people cry
"We stand, we fight, we rise
Minutemen own this sky"
Style of Music
country, Country-meets-heroic rock: steady kick, jangly acoustic guitar, twangy electric hooks, and soaring fiddle lines. Verses stay grounded and storytelling; chorus lifts with stacked male vocals, organ pad, and big tom fills. Grand, marching energy that still feels rustic and road-worn, ideal for a triumphant ride across the wasteland.
