Lyrics:
Empty air where my brother stood
Athena’s smile was made of wood.
The dust of Troy is bitter on my tongue,
The songs of home... are all... been sung.
(Oooooh, help me now...)
I see the scales of Father Zeus, they’re tilting to the ground,
In the silence of the battlefield, I hear the final sound.
No more shields to hide behind, no more gods to pray,
The sun is setting red and gold upon my final day!
I will not fall in silence! I will not die in shame!
Let the heavens tremble when they speak my mortal name!
One last strike for glory, for the sons of men to see,
Before the cold, dark river... takes the soul of me!
I stood before the gates, I heard my mother cry,
I chose to face the lion, I chose the way to die.
Better to fall in honor than to live within a lie,
Underneath the burning sun... of a cold and empty sky.
​Not without a struggle!
Not without the glory!
Let the future hear it,
Let them tell the story!
My destiny has found me... NOW!
I will not fall in silence! I will not die in shame!
(YEAAAH, MY NAME!)
Let the heavens tremble when they speak my mortal name!
One last strike for glory, for the sons of men to see,
Before the cold, dark river... takes the soul of me!
One... last... deed...
Before... I go...
