Holy Diver, A Tribute To Ronnie James Dio

Holy Diver, A Tribute To Ronnie James Dio




Born into a world where Metal was loud,
And sent by the Gods down to Earth,
There once was a man, both humble and proud,
He carried the Power since his birth.

Killing the Dragon was nothing to him,
He slayed the beast with ease,
He was the Holy Diver, grim,
For Him, get on your knees.

The One and Only Metal King,
With Thunder in his heart,
Of him the Valkeries now shall sing,
He tore nine worlds apart.

Archaic spell crafts is his hold,
A Sacred Heart did well,
His story never shall grow old,
In Heaven and in Hell.

A Master Of The Moon he was,
A Rainbow In the Dark,
His way of life was lived because,
His Legend made a mark.

More than mortal, He is Legend,
Eternal, Immortal soul,
His Name shall never die, nor end,
The King Of Rock And Roll.
