Rome divided, an Empire in turmoil The Banner of the Eagle claimed by Emperors three One Tetrarch on a mission to save the Western Empire Son of Sol Invictus, known as Constantine Upon the battlefield they'll meet with the usurper The army of Maxentius waits where the Tiber flows Down by the Milvian Bridge, Rome's fate will be decided Against superior numbers, Constantine's legions go Sharpen your swords, Warriors of the Wolf breed Ready your shields, for bloody work is nigh The enemy broods within, barbarians at the borders But though we are outnumbered, the Sun God's on our side The campfires burning high, the troops exhaust and weary The Emperor cast a glance towards the heavens Within his vision rose a multitude of flying shields Bearing the sign of the Christian martyr A sign from Heaven sent, a mission dawned in Constantine The foreign prophet could finally be his saviour His troops were ordered to adopt the Christian heraldry In the Lords name would come the greater glory March! With swords held high! For the greater glory! To battle! To battle! Fear not, for we are blessed This magic icon shall ward from steel and arrow Victoria! Victoria! Today we'll win the field Maxentius' men will drown in tears and sorrow Sharpen your swords, Warriors of the Wolf breed Ready your shields, for bloody work is nigh The enemy within, barbarians at the borders Fear not that we're outnumbered, the Lord is on our side The waters of the Tiber foamed in blood red crimson As Maxentius' soldiers were pushed towards the shore Inspired by the omen from a foreign saviour Fought Constantine's men as they never did before Maxentius defeated and drowned beneath the waves Victorious Constantine approached the gates of Rome As Emperor of the West he donned the victor's laurel Proclaimed a new religion to end all Heathendom People of Rome, sons of Sol Invictus Daughters of Isis, born from the Eastern sands Saved are your souls, for a new god has risen Hail to the Redeemer, born as Son of Man! Thus from an Empire torn, was born the Curse of Constantine A minor cult was sold towards the masses To strengthen policy, suppress individuality As long as people don't realize their losses Dogmatic views suppressed widespread matriarchy And thus a long dead prophet rose as godlike being Replaced the threefold Goddess with the Holy Trinity A self made Book of Lies installed as mankind's treaty A servants robe now hides our mothers glory And the sun's light is shadowed by a crossbeam Thus came the Curse of Constantine!
