I think that this song is about the Cold War. As you can see in the song it says, "Is it East versus West
Or man against man
Can any nation stand alone". It also says in the song, "There is so much at stake
Seems our freedom's up
Against the ropes", this is definetly talking about communism vs the freedom in the US. Plus this song was made in the 80s, right in the middle of the Cold War.
