Versus The World Lyrics
One we were scum of the Earth
Now we've cleared our names
In Nifelheim came rebirth
Baptized in Mount Doom's flames
A decade now we've fought this war
Never yielding from our path
Our journeys take us to foreign shores
Where we let our metal blast
We've been battered and left for dead
We've been beaten and we have bled
But we always made it through - Vs the world
This may be our last quest
Before we're put to rest
The end is coming soon - Vs the world
Warriors of the grave tooks us south
Hell bent on genocide
They made us face the brutal truth
This would be no easy ride
Grotesque creatues of the sky
Met with us on winter fields
Christian god cast aside - Massacre of hallowed eve
We've been battered and left for dead
We've been beaten and we have bled
But we always made it through - Vs the world
This may be our last quest
Before we're put to rest
The end is coming soon - Vs the world
Persian demons brought us south
On merciless campaign
We've raided the western shores
Always going against the grain
All these years we've fought to win
And sometimes almost died
I tell you now we won't give in
Without a vicious fight
We've been battered and left for dead
We've been beaten and we have bled
Versus the world
Now we've cleared our names
In Nifelheim came rebirth
Baptized in Mount Doom's flames
Never yielding from our path
Our journeys take us to foreign shores
Where we let our metal blast
We've been beaten and we have bled
But we always made it through - Vs the world
This may be our last quest
Before we're put to rest
The end is coming soon - Vs the world
Hell bent on genocide
They made us face the brutal truth
This would be no easy ride
Met with us on winter fields
Christian god cast aside - Massacre of hallowed eve
We've been beaten and we have bled
But we always made it through - Vs the world
This may be our last quest
Before we're put to rest
The end is coming soon - Vs the world
On merciless campaign
We've raided the western shores
Always going against the grain
And sometimes almost died
I tell you now we won't give in
Without a vicious fight
We've been beaten and we have bled
Versus the world

i think its about the band and what they have been through. "A decade now we've fought this war" refers to the band excisting 10 years when they recorded vs the world. and battles refering to gigs the played. "Warriors of the grave" and "Grotesque creatues of the sky" must refer to touring partners, though i don't know which bands.
"Grotesque creatues of the sky" could be Morbid Angel, since A.A.s site says they played together around xmas
I think this song is about Amon Amarth as a band because "once we were scum of the earth", and these guys were originally called scum.
I agree with The Opressed1 about "One we were scum of the Earth."
Also, "Baptized in Mount Doom's flames" grants sense to both. Since Amon Amarth means Mount Doom.
I think this song is about the struggle the US has made to survive as a country, its just a guess though just thought this song was too badass not to have a comment
It has nothing to do with America, since Amon Amarth are from Scandinavia. they do, however, have some pretty cheesy lyrics, but some of their songs are pretty damn cool. Especially the Victorious March.
"God Bless America" - Amon Amarth
"God Bless America" - Amon Amarth
Good song. Not sure what it's about though...
It sounds like an army that's been beaten or something.
