Lyrics The Art of War - Serenity

The Art of War

I can remember all the days of violence
I can remember all the days they fought for rights
When men united all by fear and interest
I mastered them with hopeful promises I’ve broken
Almighty giver of all life
Sun you’re my god, open my eyes
I have to conquer — I am made to server that aim
Do as I command (do as I command)
You’ll never stop a dreamer
Imagination rules the world and I saw it grand
Fight at my side (fight at my side)
You’ll never taste the failure
Courage is key — let me teach you so, the art of war
I do not want a bench covered with velvet
I do not want a crown unless power goes with it
Religion I would use to server ambition
Glory is fleeting, the obscure is forever
Almighty giver of all life
Sun you’re my god, open my eyes
I have to conquer, no matter the pain, no matter the harm
Do as I command (do as I command)
You’ll never stop a dreamer
Imagination rules the world and I saw it grand
Fight at my side (fight at my side)
You’ll never taste the failure
Courage is key — let me teach you so, the art of war
I command for greater tomorrow
Power is my reward
Raise your head — fate will guide you now and forever
Do as I command (do as I command)
You’ll never stop a dreamer
Imagination rules the world and I saw it grand
Fight at my side (fight at my side)
You’ll never taste the failure
Courage is key — let me teach you so, the art of war
(Ad gladios, ad gladios, ad gladios, signa inferre)
(Ad gladios, ad gladios, ad gladios, vae victis)
(Ad gladios, ad gladios, ad gladios, gloria mundi)
(Ad gladios, ad gladios, ad gladios, vae victis)
(A statesman’s heart must be placed in his head)
