“Never The Heroes” is the second single off Judas Priest’s 2018 album Firepower, the song deals with the theme of war seen through a soldier’s POV, and is a tribute to soldiers.

[Verse 1]
Like a cobra, they will strike
And like lions caged we'll fight
We were taken not by choice
They put anger in our voice
[Verse 2]
We were fearless but so afraid

Never the heroes (We were never the heroes)
We were made to fight (We were made to fight)
Never the heroes, we were sacrificed at war
