Sixx:A.M. - Barbarians (Prayers For The Blessed) Lyrics






I am sick of being told how to feel by the old, the decrepit, and the greedy rich
I am sick of being lied to, tied to a chain gang, rats on a sinking ship

Do you wanna bleed? Gonna take a knee?
Are you gonna stand up? I am, I am
Show me what you got before you start to rot
Are you fucking ready 'cause I am, I am

It's more than a warning shot
We're all barbarians, everybody say Amen
Say a prayer for the blessed as they're dying in our hands
We're all barbarians, the end is coming soon
Say a prayer for the chosen while they choke on silver spoons
Everybody say Amen...
We're gonna steal the crown right off their heads
We're all barbarians

You can bury me infected, next to the rejected, somewhere in the valley of tears
You can wake up with a knife as you're coming back to life and they gut you as you're facing your fears

Do you wanna die? Are you gonna cry?
Are you gonna fight back? I am, I am
Are you gonna stop? Take it to the top?
Are you fucking ready 'cause I am, I am

It's more than a warning shot
We're all barbarians, everybody say Amen
Say a prayer for the blessed as they're dying in our hands
We're all barbarians, the end is coming soon
Say a prayer for the chosen while they choke on silver spoons
Everybody say Amen...
We're gonna steal the crown right off their heads
We're all barbarians
Barbarians

We're all barbarians, everybody say Amen
Say a prayer for the blessed as they're dying in our hands
We're all barbarians, the end is coming soon
Say a prayer for the chosen while they die with silver spoons

We're all barbarians, everybody say Amen
Say a prayer for the blessed as they're dying in our hands
We're all barbarians, the end is coming soon
Say a prayer for the chosen while they choke on silver spoons
And everybody say Amen...
We're gonna steal the crown right off their heads
We're all barbarians

We're all barbarians
We're all barbarians

    dj ashba is incredibly talented ... all his soli are both melodic and very technical ... i love his playing

  59. r.... ....

    What does the voice at the beginning say right before James starting singing? It's something like "in the valley of darkness, there is (blank)"

    r.... ....

    "In the valley of darkness, there is no promised land." That line is also in the lyrics of "Wolf at your door".

  60. i.... ....

    In this hour of darkness, there is no promise land

  61. g.... ....

    Wow.  This particular album is like getting Hard Rock/Rock N' Roll back.   Seriously.  I feel like we went back to the late 80's when it started to die and then kept going.  Really  happy with what this band is doing on all levels.  This Album deserves some awards for sure. Just love this album.  It's really hard and just phenomenal.  Thank you Sixxam.  This album feels like a revival of a genre for sure.  I applaud you.  Thank you.

  62. D.... W....

    Great track from a great album from a great band.

  63. J.... G....

    AWESOME!! I just got the album!

  64. V.... W....

    I heard this band o Octane awesome band
    have their CDs
    Worth it

  65. m.... b....

    best I have heard in a Long time. sixx A.M

  66. J.... A....

    holy shit. I just listens to bunch of this sixx am stuff. I really wanted to like it because I like Nikki. but, this shit is fetched. look up poser and there this shit will be. what a joke. cookie cutter lyrics and half ass music. this shit sound like it belongs to a third rate band making a bad video game soundtrack. go back to your mc'mansion sixx and try to live off your herion diaries. last good thing you did

    J.... A....

    They are all very talented regardless blend well together. It feels so good to listen to good old fashion rock n roll. Nothing cookie cutter about those guitar solos at all.

  67. K.... ....

    Great song! Ashba rocks like always does...

  68. T.... ....

    Slamming rhythm rocks!

  69. R.... d....

    I'm so in love with the new album! <3

  70. K.... 1....

    I love this song

  71. T.... M....

    Nice work.

  72. G.... G....

    AWESOME SONG! AMAZING ALBUM!!!!!

  73. f.... g....

    Good song. Not the best, but it's good indeed.

  74. �.... �....

    Excellent album! Hello from Russia

  75. J.... H....

    I'm a fan of the band but not these last two albums. There is not enough good material for a double album. Barbarians sounds like a filler from Volume 1.

  76. M.... ....

    I watched them in concert and my balls were so empty by the end. continuous nut for 45 minutes and then shinedown came out and I nutted even harder

  77. L.... ....

    An epic natural harmonic divebomb with some nice delay would've put the cherry on top of that solo.

  78. A.... ....

    WOWW Que banda do caralho!!!!

  79. G.... B....

    I swear this song should be in a WWE Game!!!!

    G.... B....

    Amazing song and guitar solo. Goosebumps!

  80. s.... ....

    This song kicks ass! Can't wait for the 18th!

  81. S.... G....

    Kickass song!!!

  82. E.... B....

    say a prayer for the blessed. man this tune is solid and at the 3:02 mark DJ ashba rips on the solo

  83. L.... S....

    we're gonna build a wall

  84. s.... ....

    I like Sixx AM a lot but I hate when James sings like he does at 4:00 .... it just sounds wrong

    s.... ....

    spiderwooper yeah whats up with that? dont like it either...

  85. L.... X....

    Muito bom. Uma das minhas músicas preferidas.

  86. R.... M....

    I really like this song. Live that the guitars and drums are heavier. This has more of that hard rock vibe. Lyrics are cool too. This has to be a big single for them and a must for the set list!

  87. O.... A....

    great job as always

  88. L.... ....

    damn that solo

  89. s.... s....

    i love this band
    and the lyrics are godly

  90. j.... k....

    Riff, riff, riff, this is gonna hurt... Fucking great song!

  91. D.... V....

    DAMN!!!!!!!!!! IS IT THE FUCKING 18TH YET?????????? AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! I AM READY!!!!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!!!!!!XOXOXOXO

    D.... V....

    NOOO, the 19th lol. Is it the 19th yet

    D.... V....

    michowski1 it's definitely the 18th that it releases!

    D.... V....

    YES!!!!! THE 18TH!!!!! LMAO!!!!!

  92. B.... ....

    So hyped to see ya'll for the second time in december at the Amway! Saw ya'll at Rockville earlier this year in April, you're one of the best rock bands on the planet at the moment, keep it up!

  93. x.... ....

    all the people saying the song sounds like the ones before, stfu. best hard rock band of the 21st century. it is reviving the genre and providing quality over quantity. this song sounds nothing like life is beautiful nor we will not go quietly. go listen to rappers, for sure theyve got much diversity in their songs :).

    x.... ....

    You're suggesting that quality equals success, but that the quality of rap, which you call the most successful genre of music right now, is shit. And you don't specify what genre Sixx AM falls into exactly. They're a good group of talented musicians, but they're not terribly great at songwriting. Not a whole lot of diversity or unexpected stuff, aside from one weird-ass album. Even in the realm of mainstream rock, I'd argue there's flat-out better, and more successful, bands out there. I'm also not judging on one song like you say people are, I have the album. First half is good, but gets kinda meh after about 6 songs.

    x.... ....

    xGreekMoDs f

    x.... ....

    xGreekMoDs they still kicken it👍👍🍺🍺🎶🎶🇺🇸

    x.... ....

    I like these songs but I got to point out something, they sound too modern to declare them "best hard rock band" you should listen to Hardcore Superstar. We Don't Celebrate Sundays, Beg For It, Dreaming In A Casket are a few of the best.

    x.... ....

    😂😂😂😂😂 The cringe is just too much

  94. F.... ....

    ~ AMAZING ~

  95. S.... M....

    I love this song! James, your voice is incredible. Great Song.💓

  96. T.... ....

    That song you'll be hearing on the next MX vs. ATV soundtrack

  97. M.... D....

    Holy shit. Came here right after listening to "Rise Of The Melancholy Empire"

    M.... D....

    Hope.Outline I love that they did this with the first song so when this comes out, listen to thie forst one and than this one and it sounds like one album. Love it!

    M.... D....

    Hope.Outline yeah i heard this this afternoon. i listened rise of the melochanly empire and then barbarians and i just realised that barbarians begins as the end of rise of the melancholy empire...

    M.... D....

    @Crackerwall quite a cool way to kick it off right?

    M.... D....

    Hope.Outline it's the same outro and intro
