Africanus |
| Is this the way we let it in |
| Our legacy erased? |
| Invaders cut a path within |
| Devouring everything |
| And they will if we let them |
| And they will if we run |
| What they take from us now |
| It can’t be undone |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| Nowhere left we can retreat |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| No surrender, no surrender |
| You cannot advance if you don’t fight back |
| And you won’t fight back if you don’t believe |
| Where peace is laid impossible |
| Prepare for war to Zama (to Zama) |
| Follow me |
| Strength is order and weakness prey |
| But I alone design my fate |
| I know too well with schemes transparent |
| Must resort to trickery |
| I’ll take the battle back to Carthage |
| Where triumph fades into defeat |
| Revenge avenged, and so it carries |
| Scipio to victory |
| And they will if we let them |
| And they will if we run |
| What they take from us now |
| It can’t be undone |
| (Go, go, go) |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| Nowhere left we can retreat |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| No substitute for tenacity |
| You cannot advance if you don’t fight back |
| And you won’t fight back if you don’t believe |
| Where peace is laid impossible |
| Prepare for war to Zama (to Zama) |
| Follow me |
| This is my purpose, the strength to begin |
| My channel to courage, I summon it in |
| This is my gift, the act of my tears |
| This is my prayer, embracing my fear |
| This is my family, this is my home |
| A lifetime believing and all that I know |
| This is the place I choose to defend |
| And I’ll defend it, to the end |
| This is my honor, this is my word |
| This is the voice you’ve already heard |
| This is my faith that rises above |
| This is my everything—I give it to love |
| And they will if we let them |
| And they will if we run |
| What they want from us now |
| We give to no one |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| Nowhere left we can retreat |
| I won’t stand down—there's no surrender |
| No substitute for tenacity |
| You cannot advance if you don’t fight back |
| And you won’t fight back if you don’t believe |
| Where peace is laid impossible |
| Prepare for war to Zama (to Zama) |
| Follow me |
