[Verse 1]

The stage has been lit, get up on your feet

Hearts start to pound, everyone get off your seat

My fingers spontaneously combust into flames

Destroying pretenders, only ashes remain

[Chorus]

On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands

The earth started rumbling a thunderous command

To bash and to thrash, to bang my head

To smash my guitar and "let there be shred!"

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

The amps start to roar, a tsunami of sound

Controlling the air, shaking the ground

Guitars are all screaming, they squeal with delight

Clawing fretboards away at the speed of light

[Chorus]

On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands

The earth startеd rumbling a thunderous command

To bash and to thrash, to bang my head

To smash my guitar and "let thеre be shred!"
