Lyrics
A man is a warrior in need of a battle to fight
Honed, trained, seasoned, exerting all his might
Awaken that fierce quality within, to a high vision
And you have a man with great purpose.
Every man is strong inside but the choice to fight is his own
Intimidation lures him away but the battle calls and he must be firm
No misgivings for the cause to which he's enjoined
Armed with confidence he strides into the storm.
The heart does not weaken where determination's joined with pride
Like a wind that carries him, onward to the fight
There is a great battle where each man has a place
Valor, honor, bravery, which one wears your face
Or does some other name describe you qualities, your ace
It was given when you answered the call.
Warrior Man, answer your call
There is a plan, for you to be strong
Take a stand, against what is wrong
Warrior Man!
In a warrior's vision he transcends his common frame
Cunning knows when to charge and when to dodge again
See a trap, he does not charge, blindly in vain
He's masterful with weapons and a deadly aim.
Defending what is right or rescuing beauty
Spur a man to be his best, in noble duty
Striving long and hard to master him self
Before he is ready to begin his quest.
Strength that is wild and fierce, unafraid to meet pain
As a lion or a stallion protecting it's domain
Is a man whose eyes are opened to the truth
Prepared upon the enemy to execute.
Fire burns within the heart, indignation that ignites
Decision of allegiance, a pledge for loyal knights
Zeal that emblazons a mark upon the brow
Is a cause worth living and dying for.
A dangerous man is one who's reckoned with his death
All men die but few live, who make a difference
Seek life in wisdom and fearlessness
Drink death like wine in innocence.
Let them feel the weight of who you are, stare them in the face
Stand up in full measure, of power, truth and grace
Warrior Man.
Warrior Man, answer your call
There is a plan, for you to be strong
Take a stand, against what is wrong
Warrior Man, Warrior Man, Warrior Man!
