[Verse 1] He came down in the ash With a rifle in his hand Big iron on his back And a flag in the sand Mutants at the fences Raiders at the gate He said, “Stand your ground now We are not too late”
[Pre-Chorus] One by one they came From the red torn plain He tightened both his fists Like thunder in the rain Every broken house Saw that fire ignite He said, “Hold the line We’re reclaiming light”
[Chorus] General in his giant power (Giant power) Standing tall for the broken hours (Broken hours) One free world, one rising name He’ll burn the fear and break the chain General in his giant power (Giant power) For a future where we all are free
[Verse 2] Scorched earth on his boots Salt and rust on steel Every step he took Made the wounded heal A kid at the window A mother in the cold Saw that armored shadow And they stood up bold
[Pre-Chorus] Through the smoke and screams He never lost his pace He carried hope like fire Across that poisoned place When the night got cruel And the sirens cried He said, “Stay alive We’re not done tonight”
[Chorus] General in his giant power (Giant power) Standing tall for the broken hours (Broken hours) One free world, one rising name He’ll burn the fear and break the chain General in his giant power (Giant power) For a future where we all are free
[Bridge] Let the wasteland shake Let the broken rise He’s a wall of steel With a human heart inside From the ruined towns To the far-off farms He don’t fight for thrones He fights for open arms
[Chorus] General in his giant power (Giant power) Standing tall for the broken hours (Broken hours) One free world, one rising name He’ll burn the fear and break the chain General in his giant power (Giant power) For a future where we all are free
