[Verse 1]
They rode in hard at dawn
Through the busted gate
Took food from the tables
And flame to the hay
Mara cried out loud
When the windows broke
Smoked glass on the floor
And a child found the smoke
[Pre-Chorus]
Word went west
Like a shotgun prayer
To the old brass halls
Up the river stair
He heard the news
And his jaw turned stone
Then he stood so tall
On the radio
[Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
[Verse 2]
He called in the veterans
From the broken south
Spoke one hard line
And they moved out
Tracks in the mud
Boots in the dust
Steel on the road
And a rage in us
He pointed north
At the fort on the hill
Said bring me back
What the fires kill
No more mercy
For the ones who grin
When the poor got robbed
And the hurt got thin
[Pre-Chorus]
Word went west
Like a shotgun prayer
To the old brass halls
Up the river stair
He heard the news
And his jaw turned stone
Then he stood so tall
On the radio
[Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
[Bridge]
By the broken watchtower
Past the twisted cars
They raised that flag
Under bullet scars
No song for pity
No room for shame
Just a hard, clean oath
And a written name
[Final Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
Stand for the dead
Or get out the way
They rode in hard at dawn
Through the busted gate
Took food from the tables
And flame to the hay
Mara cried out loud
When the windows broke
Smoked glass on the floor
And a child found the smoke
[Pre-Chorus]
Word went west
Like a shotgun prayer
To the old brass halls
Up the river stair
He heard the news
And his jaw turned stone
Then he stood so tall
On the radio
[Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
[Verse 2]
He called in the veterans
From the broken south
Spoke one hard line
And they moved out
Tracks in the mud
Boots in the dust
Steel on the road
And a rage in us
He pointed north
At the fort on the hill
Said bring me back
What the fires kill
No more mercy
For the ones who grin
When the poor got robbed
And the hurt got thin
[Pre-Chorus]
Word went west
Like a shotgun prayer
To the old brass halls
Up the river stair
He heard the news
And his jaw turned stone
Then he stood so tall
On the radio
[Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
[Bridge]

Past the twisted cars

[Final Chorus]
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
You came for the weak
Now the whole land burns
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
The President swore
You’d learn what you earned
Ashes for Gunners
Ashes for Gunners
Stand for the dead
Or get out the way
Stijl van muziek
Country-leaning heroic melodic anthem with steady mid-tempo stomp, syncopated acoustic strums, steel-guitar cries, tom-driven lift in the choruses, and a marching snare under the final push. Verse stays lean with low guitar and root-note bass; pre-chorus opens with rising harmony stacks; chorus lands wide with gang vocals on the hook. Dusty close-mic lead, doubled on the refrain, with fiddle swells and impact hits into each section. Bright, rugged mix with a cinematic edge., country
