Overkill
Freedom Rings
[Verse 1]
Blast off, bang-bang, power trip
Just to set the world afire
God looked down an unapproving frown
Said, "Get those boys up higher
They got nothing more than what they're living
Out where freedom ringing"
As I rolled down the window to flick my butt
I could hear him singing

[Chorus]
Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to your soul
Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to the soul
Taking a hold
Hear them singing:
"Freedom ringing"
Freedom will ring
[Verse 2]
Tailspin, down, down, down we go
On the darker side of night
We held on tight, like flags in a hurricane
Waiting for the daylight
We had nothing more than what we were
My fingernails were clinging
As I tightened my grip, caught my breath
I still heard him singing:
"Hang on tight; it's all right
Out where freedom's ringing"

[Chorus]
Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to your soul
Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to the soul
Taking a hold
Hear them singing:
"Freedom ringing"
Freedom will ring
[Bridge 1]
Here we go, no one knows
Out where freedom ringin'
Hang on tight; it's all right
Out where freedom ringin'
Here we go, no one knows
Out where freedom ringin'
Hang on tight; it's all right
Hang on tight; it's all right

[Bridge 2]
The beaches blew the warning
The boys faced her on the sand
She's a goddamn demon, she's an evil bitch
And she slaps with an iron hand
Now, we ain't ones for running
And we don't know right from wrong
So, we stared down into the eye of the beast
Stood fucking Jersey strong, that's right

[Bridge 3]
"She's coming, she's a hurricane
She's ringing," all the children say
Come on down when ya hear the sound
Where the sky will meet the water
Come on down, we always been around
Even through the slaughter
"She's coming, she's a hurricane
She's ringing," all the children say
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to your soul
Taking a hold, so it goes

Freedom rings
Into your heart
Tears you apart from the start
Freedom, freedom rings
Right to the soul
Taking a hold
Hear them singing:
"Freedom ringing"
Freedom will ring
