The meaning of the lyrics of the song "I Am War" by the artist "Wolfchant"

Contents

The song "I Am War" by the German band Wolfchant tells the story of a leader who, along with his people, has been hiding in the mountains for 10 years after being driven from their land. The lyrics are filled with pain and a thirst for revenge; they reflect the determination to fight for their land and freedom.

Part I describes the hero's inner struggle. He can no longer live like an animal hiding from enemies. The sense of duty to his people and the desire for revenge have forced him to develop a plan. He wants to convince his people, particularly his battle-hungry son, to go to war. The hero sees himself as the embodiment of war, a source of strength and terror to his enemies. He believes in victory and urges his people to follow him.

Part II shows how the hero gathers an army. He calls upon Odin, the god of war, to help him unite the people. The appearance of Odin in the form of a falcon strengthens the hero's faith in victory. He promises to reward his people for their loyalty and calls on them to end the pain of defeat. The hero is determined to reclaim his land and is confident that Odin will bless him on this path. The image of an invincible warrior who knows no fear emphasizes the hero's determination and confidence in his own righteousness.

I.

The years they past and one day follow the next,

We live withdrawn in the forests 10 years now passed

Since we were attacked and had to flee into the mountains

So I cannot live on, like an animal on the escape

And my son I must convince, we must fight this time

Equivalent this evening I will tell him of my plans

Because he spoke ever more to go into war

He was inspired of my suggestion.

[Chorus:]

I am war — can you see

I am your force — look at me

I am the fear in our enemies' eyes

I am the Thunderhawk who never dies

[Bridge:]

Also the soldiers were inspired of this plan

We want to rather die than our country to lose

We must go to Ashwood, here the clan is weakest

We must convince the inhabitants to fight; we are stronger than ever before

The people must know that a member of the elders is still alive

On a hidden place in the forest we want to meet.

Here I will speak to all, the falcon on my arm.

I am blessed by Odin and I will show you the way

II.

Now the night had broken in, 1000 men had met

Oh Odin be by my side, they all must follow me

And Odin appeared Aahr in shape of a falcon

For the years in which you were faithful to me, I will now recompense you

I feel it your power is in me, we will be victorious

Befriends the time is come to stop our pain

Again we all should take the weapons

I be blessed by Odin and I will show you the way

[Chorus:]

I am war — can you see

I am your force — look at me

I am the fear in our enemies' eyes

I am the thunderer who never dies
