We were here before your maps

English lyrics

[Intro] Hey USA LISTEN! Hey USA LISTEN! Heavy boots on the tide Heavy boots on the tide [Verse 1] You came loud to the shore With your flags and your noise But the water knows names And the sand keeps the choice We were here before your maps Before your lines on the page Bitter salt on your tongue When you test our rage [Pre-Chorus] So step back Hear the drums? Step back Feel the ground? One more move And you’ll find This old gulf don’t bow down [Chorus] Hey USA LISTEN! Iran will win We both know that So get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf Get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf [Verse 2] Iron words, iron boots Still you circle, still you press But the coast is a wall And the wind wants less Cargo ships, black sea spray Names carved deep in the foam Every mile you claim We call home, home, home [Pre-Chorus] So step back Hear the drums? Step back Feel the ground? One more move And you’ll find This old gulf don’t bow down [Chorus] Hey USA LISTEN! Iran will win We both know that So get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf Get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf [Bridge] [Half-time march] No fear in the salt No sleep in the stone You can rattle the steel But you won’t take the throne Our fathers, our sons Stand sharp in the foam Say the name of the gulf Then leave it alone [Breakdown] Hey USA LISTEN! Hey USA LISTEN! Persian Gulf Persian Gulf Hey USA LISTEN! Hey USA LISTEN! [Final Chorus] Hey USA LISTEN! Iran will win We both know that So get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf Get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf Hey USA LISTEN! Iran will win We both know that So get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf Get the fuck out Of our Persian Gulf
