Quest For Glory

from Risen From The Ashes by Cryptic Prophecy

/

about

Quest for Glory is basically Cryptic Prophecy's homage to Scandinavian metal, which comprises much of their influences. It originated as a demo written by Andrew on a keyboard as far back as 2008 before being developed into a full song around 2010 and first appearing on the band's self titled 2011 EP.

lyrics

Ride, ride away into the night, into the glorious fight
With fire burning in our eyes and no fear that we may die
Sworn to an oath, a brotherhood that we fight for
With honor to gain but no rewards, nothing more
Selfless and righteous is the cause for which we now fight
I raise my sword up high

Chorus:
Hey! (x12)
Ride! Fight! Kill! Die! No more time to run or hide! (x2)

Now that the battle is done and victory has been won
Back home we will ride and mourn our comrades that died
Place his sword and hem beside the mound
Atop the hill, our newly conquered ground
A monument to his infinite memory
And the price of glory

Solo - Torke

Chorus

On the snowy plains of the north awaits our destiny
Long journey awaits, our fate 4,000 miles across the sea
Back to the home of the Vikings we sail as brothers in arms
And in our true home awaits a new glorious dawn
In this new land lies the key to finding ourselves
Tear ourselves free from the shackles and the fires of hell
Slaying the demons who banish the light with the power bestowed upon me
Free from them now and off to a land where I can live free

Solo - Manuele
