It's hard to beat March of Cambeagh.
I know this is more about songs that get us fired up than actual fight songs (nothing will ever top 'Battle Hymn of the Republic') Here's one that always gets me fired up. It talks about killing tyrants and all. I've been a Dropkick Murphys fan way back since the early 90s and have followed them since their skinhead days. This song still gives me chills.
And so the story's told of a hearty group of men.
It's a tale of their triumphs and their woes.
Be it raids and melees ancient or the modern worker's struggle that inspires men to stand up for their rights.
And should we fall down by the wayside in this ever-changing world we can look back to these heroes of our past.
With their staunch determination and ferocious iron will, no tyranny would quell them in their task.
It's an age-old situation with an ever-present message: that time and tide waiteth for no man.
So without fear of confrontation or the consequence of outcome, it's for freedom and for happiness they toiled.
And in looking to the future, we can see a better place where we can shake the yoke of tyranny for all.
It's been paved by generations who have now gone to their rest. It's just remembrance of their dignity we ask.
(Chorus):
So come on rally 'round this brave and valiant cause with tradition, pride, and honor at it's core.
With swords drawn to defend stood these noble-hearted men
Faugh-an-ballagh, clear the way, me boys!
Under perilous conditions with small hope of success they left behind the lives that they once led
and by virtue of their fortitude and single-minded strength they cleared the way for the people of today.
So when we think back to our ancestors respectfully we hark and thank the men whose struggle broke the chain.
It's a long road up ahead of us - let's forge on while we're strong and leave our mark of honor once again
(Chorus x2)
So the story has been told and it comes now to an end. it's setting: any era, any land. When abusive tyrants force the hands of matters great or small, it inspires men to stand up for their rights.
More Oi! British punk. Tally ho, ginger!
Or one of my new favorite bands, Discharger, from Holland
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
No fear in our hearts, 'cause we're about to die
For Valhalla, fire in our eyes
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
Glorious, a new dawn has arrived
The people we commanded so they get us for a fight
Familiar with shaking hands with death
We're marching through the fields where the soil turned red
We know some of us won't make it
back home to their loved ones and their wives
But we choose to fight for freedom
So we chose to sacrifice
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
No fear in our hearts, 'cause we're about to die
For Valhalla, fire in our eyes
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
Glorious, every time we meet
We have them bound together by the pain of defeat
Join with us, raise the banners high
Let the wealthy fight, know that you're prepared to die
As we echo in eternity
we forget about the pain
'Cause the writing on the wall predicts
That the future holds our name
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
No fear in our hearts, 'cause we're about to die
For Valhalla, fire in our eyes
Hear us march, like thunder from the sky
Whatever your price may be
to fulfill our destiny
We shall fight with each and everyone
'cause our legacy lives on
