"'Metal Sons' is a tribute to true, original heavy metal: a powerful guitar riff that seems to have fallen out of this time period, plus Udo's usual uncompromising vocals, plus screaming guitar solos and a chorus that will make every heavy metal fan automatically headbanging and shouting along. Thanks to its modern arrangement, the song is nevertheless (or precisely because of this) a musical treat of a special kind."

Lyrics:

We cannot be silenced
Always on the move
Speeding in the fast lane
Electrifying groove

Riding on the sound waves
Energy is high
Always bound to metal
Hear my battle cry
Rising higher - heat within
Blazing fire - burning sin

We are the metal sons
Born to overdrive
We shoot the metal guns
Our way to stay alive

We are the metal sons
Masters of the crowd
We shoot the metal guns
Screaming out aloud

The monster has awakened
Creeping up your spine
We are the forsaken
We are the divine

Raging hell and fury
Over-amplified
The beast will live forever
The sound will never die

Rising higher - heat within
Blazing fire - burning sin

We are the metal sons
Born to overdrive
We shoot the metal guns
Our way to stay alive

We are the metal sons
Masters of the crowd
We shoot the metal guns
Screaming out aloud

We are the metal sons
Born to overdrive
We shoot the metal guns
Our way to stay alive

We are the metal sons
Masters of the crowd
We shoot the metal guns
Screaming out aloud
