LYRICS: Seven-year-old boy Time has come to learn how to survive This is in your blood This is our code, this is our way of life We bow to none, glorious and free Challenge us to war and war it shall be See us march as one Hear us roar Justice will be done Forevermore As the ground trembles As the ground trembles Training is intense Torturing and pain he must withstand By hunting, by stealing, by killing, surviving All these by his own brave hand We bow to none, glorious and free Challenge us to war and war it shall be See us march as one Hear us roar Justice will be done Forevermore This is who we are And history remembers our names! As the ground trembles As the ground trembles We bow to none, glorious and free Challenge us to war and war it shall be See us march as one Hear us roar Justice will be done Forevermore As the ground trembles!

LYRICS: Restless warriors Defying the fear of death We shipped for endless exploration Loyal to each other Until our last breath We gave the oath of dedication Into the black abyss we sail... The beginning or the end? Only Gods can show some mercy And the truth is that we've travelled too far We ascend and we descend on the highest waves of the sea Though determined and courageous we are... Off to different shores Off to different shores Off to different shores We're setting on our course Dark sea turbulent Far away from home Poseidon is testing our decision Brothers together No one's left alone Embracing this vicious premonition Into the black abyss we sail... The beginning or the end? Only Gods can show some mercy And the truth is that we've travelled too far We ascend and we descend on the highest waves of the sea Though determined and courageous we are... Off to different shores Off to different shores Off to different shores We're setting on our course The beginning or the end? Only Gods can show some mercy And the truth is that we've travelled too far We ascend and we descend on the highest waves of the sea Though determined and courageous we are... Off to different shores Off to different shores Off to different shores We're setting on our... course!

LYRICS: Onwards to warfare, nothing stands our way Troy is closer to our feet Prophecy is coming true today Their maker are about to meet Yet I wonder... Gods! Can't you see? Hell is in my eyes Pain is deep Thoughts sink in silence Do you see? Hell is in my eyes Thus I bleed Hate turns to violence During the battle my brother is getting killed The wrath within me was enormous This-is-destiny, soon to be fulfilled No mortal, my end shall be ginormous Hades calls me... Gods! Can't you see? Hell is in my eyes Pain is deep Thoughts sink in silence Do you see? Hell is in my eyes Thus I bleed Hate turns to violence Arrow hits my heel... Gods! Can't you see? Hell is in my eyes Pain is deep Thoughts sink in silence Do you see? Hell is in my eyes Thus I bleed Hate turns to violence

LYRICS: Horns are blowing Listen the drums Ready for carnage Scream out our lungs Remember, defeat has equal chances But fighting is a must The reaper grimly dances Horizon seems so vast Faith and self-denial (denial) Only for the bold (the bold) Rather fail in honor (in honor) Than succeed by fraud This is a call, a call to arms We won't surrender, we'll fight them with our hearts Legions are marching Into the storm Throughout inferno Triumphs are born Remember, our souls are made of thunder And thunder cracks the skies Our hate became our vengeance The light around us dies Faith and self-denial (denial) Only for the bold (the bold) Rather fail in honor (in honor) Than succeed by fraud Fires (fires), ashes (ashes) Bloodshed (bloodshed), demise (demise) Ruins (ruins), bodies (bodies) Kingdoms (kingdoms), arise! This is a call, a call to arms We won't surrender, we'll fight them with our hearts We won't obey, we shall not serve Oppressors always get what they deserve

LYRICS: Voting was rough Verdict is that we will fight So we began Silently march through the night And the time is now to defend our land And we shall prevail if united we stand If united we stand today... Eyes on them, cold as ice Ready for sacrifice No remorse for a loss Life or death for our cause Full attack, no retreat Hold the line, no defeat All for one, one for all And the city will not fall Conflict is wild, throughout the mud and the spears Fewer we are but we can smell on their fears With the spirit aflame the invaders fled And the fires will burn what is left to be burnt What is left to be burnt tonight Eyes on them, cold as ice Ready for sacrifice No remorse for a loss Life or death for our cause Full attack, no retreat Hold the line, no defeat All for one, one for all And the city will not fall With the will of the Gods, the victorious song we'll sing... Eyes on them, cold as ice Ready for sacrifice No remorse for a loss Life or death for our cause Full attack, no retreat Hold the line, no defeat All for one, one for all And the city will not fall And the city will not fall!

LYRICS: Word is coming from a soldier Fleet is sailing in our sea General is sharp And he saw what no one else could see We attacked in the early morning And we hit them hard... Enemies are approaching Enemies from the south Enemies fail to conquer Enemies scream and shout Death will come from above Death will come from above Death will come from above Wind is making ships to tremble They are panicked and fall off the decks This is when we seemed to back down Soon there will be only wrecks Even though we were outnumbered We destroyed them all... Warriors show no mercy Warriors few but brave Warriors fight for freedom Warriors to the grave Death will come from above Death will come from above Death will come from above And the oracle has spoken About the wooden walls And the sky went dark and grimy And was about to fall... Victory! Gods are watching Victory! Noises and dust Victory! No surrenders Vicrory! Free... at... last!

LYRICS: War almighty, you command our will Light the fire that makes us want to kill Intensity, ferocity, brutality are real You lead us to battle; our only friend is steel Fearless we fight under the sky In a land of desolation Fearless we enter cyclone's eye Through the I of the damnation Rage and anger spread upon the fields Ride our horses, with arrows, swords and shields Unbreakable, invincible, notorious but still Divine intervention will make these cowards kneel Fearless we fight under the sky In a land of desolation Fearless we enter cyclone's eye Through the I of the damnation We stand our ground until we die! Fearless we fight under the sky (under the sky) In a land of desolation Fearless we enter cyclone's eye (cyclone's eye) Through the I of the damnation Fearless we fight under the sky (under the sky) In a land of desolation Fearless we enter cyclone's eye (cyclone's eye) Through the I of the damnation Damnation!

LYRICS: What a makes a decent man fall into despair? One once loyal became a sick betrayer Was it power or was it lust? Ask redemption so pain won't last Fatal nightmare Comes alive Fatal nightmare Dishonor will not thrive No one by his side despite what he has given Sinful, filthy acts cannot be forgiven Was it envy or was it gold? Soul was never to be sold Fatal nightmare Comes alive Fatal nightmare Dishonor will not thrive Spit his dishonesty! Slam his pomposity Crash this monstrosity! Shame on his name! Spit his dishonesty! Slam his pomposity Crash this monstrosity! Shame on his name! You regret it but now it's late You decided your own fate Fatal nightmare Comes alive!

LYRICS: Army is at the gates and hell is unleashed Brave men don't retreat, they raise their fists We live one life, maybe not Too many fights to be fought Freedom is all that we want We come as one in front Fight! Until the war is won Until the war is won Until the war is won Until the war is won Aftermath is harsh and wounds are fresh Souls are higher now and out of flesh We live one life, maybe not Too many fights to be fought Freedom is all that we want We come as one in front Fight! Until the war is won Until the war is won Until the war is won Until the war is won Fight! Until the war is won Until the war is won Until the war is won Until... THE WAR IS WON!
