The Rise Of Hannibal (Ex Deo)

Hear sounds of a distant time Echoing voices of ancient tyrants Hamilcar, son of Carthage, Bestow the seed of the lion broods From this day, one will rise; many will fall To seek the throne - the throne of sand. Thy perilous nations, tremble at the hands of your enemy I've sealed your fate, in dreams far away Oh let the sun shine upon you Rise my son, avenge your father For this glory is built in fire "Father, on this day I promise to never be a friend of Rome, to treat them as a mortal enemy. This promise I make with my blood. I am the son of Carthage, and let the blood of Rome flow in the oceans of war." Feel the might of Carthage The power of a thousand spears descending Beasts crushing the skulls of the enemy Eternal storms ascend In honor of my father, we shall rise again. Again! There's no place to die There's no end in sight There's only pain, only death, only one shall reign Forgotten legends... lay among the wasted lands King of all kings, merciless Descend upon thee, warriors of the sands Fear me, for I am Hannibal!
