Watch while lifeblood flows unending Generations pass unseen Watch while I record his story Fable of a world seen Watch while man destroys his brother Madness, Beauty, War his story Watch while chaos reins supreme And Emperor’s steal the glory Watch while endless day’s of peace Are overshadowed by war Watch while history orders all Repeating again as before Watch while drunk men choose strange routes And save the tyrant boy Watch as the same, only story is told To explain fates fickle toy Watch while man is ignorant Of his own beginning thought Watch while with a thinking mind He tears himself apart Watch as man does fool himself To see the present and the past Watch and know a mothers hate Which caused a war that was to last Watch, know the full beginning And you will know the end Watch and see the fable, spread and ordered in a row See the fable history, order, make-believe and pretend Watch while lifeblood flows unending That no earthly record shows Watch and know the full beginning That you may fix the end "Be Strong and Always Remember what made you you."
