[Intro]

[Verse]
Through the mist, a shadowed tide
Across the plains, nowhere to hide
The Golden Gate, our final stand
A fateful hour across the land

[Verse]
Dawn breaks red on steel and shield
Our banners burn, our fate is sealed
The enemy general, a noble sight
His honor gleams in morning light

[Pre-Chorus]
From the walls, I watch him ride
A hero's heart, nowhere to hide
Is this the face of brutal war?
Or just a man, and nothing more?

[Chorus]
Enemy at the Golden Gate!
Our destiny we must debate!
Arrows fly in morning's haze
Through these monumental days!
For honor's call, we stand and fight!
Beneath the crimson sky's harsh light!

[Verse]
His armor shines, a polished gleam
A warrior's proud, unyielding dream
No monstrous rage, no savage cry
Just duty's burden in his eye

[Verse]
His disciplined ranks, a fearsome sight
Marching onward, day and night
He seeks no conquest, only peace
But war's dark hunger will not cease

[Pre-Chorus]
My heartbeats quicken, a strange allure
His noble bearing, strong and pure
Could this be more than mortal strife?
A tragic clash of duty, love, and life?

[Chorus]
Enemy at the Golden Gate!
Our destiny we must debate!
Arrows fly in morning's haze
Through these monumental days!
For honor's call, we stand and fight!
Beneath the crimson sky's harsh light!

[Bridge]
Is this the path that we must tread?
To spill the blood of those who've bled?
I see the man behind the helm
A soul that struggles in this realm

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Enemy at the Golden Gate!
Our destiny we must debate!
Arrows fly in morning's haze
Through these monumental days!
For honor's call, we stand and fight!
Beneath the crimson sky's harsh light!
