LAMB OF GOD huldigten Black Sabbath und Ozzy, gestern bei ihrer letzten Show ever “Back To The Behginning“), mit ihrer Coverversion von `Children of the Grave`. Der Song erschien 1971 auf dem Black Sabbath Album “Master of Reality“ und ist jetzt in der LAMB OF GOD Version auch als Single erschienen.
Gitarrist Mark Morton schreibt:
“Lamb of God being invited to perform with Black Sabbath at their final show is one of the greatest honors of our career. As an offering to the celebration, we’ve recorded our take on their classic ‘Children of the Grave,’ a protest song with lyrics that are as relevant today as they were in 1971 when the original was released.
Black Sabbath invented heavy metal and in doing so, they changed the world. This genre that they created brings immeasurable joy to fans all over the world. We are so grateful to have the heavy metal community to call our home, and so grateful to Black Sabbath for the gift of their music that they’ve given to all of us.”

Lyrics:
Revolution in their minds
The children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live
And all the hate that’s in their hearts
They’re tired of being pushed around
And told just what to do
They’ll fight the world until they’ve won
And love comes flowing through, yeah
Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Will the sun rise up tomorrow bringing peace in any way?
Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear?
Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear? Yeah
So you children of the world listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in spread the word today
Show the world that love is still alive, you must be brave
Or you children of today are children of the grave, yeah
Children of the grave
Children of the grave
Children of the grave
