Veni Vidi Vici
Not for the glory
Not for the Senate
All is for Rome
Ecstatic triumph is running through the sacred road
The total domain undoubted and foretold
Prisoners cry for mercy from the bottom of their cells
Powerless, the answer they heard were their yells
Conquering the enemy, winning the heart of Rome
Soldiers scrape behind a purple drape
Painful years without the sun
He is the chosen one
He came, saw and won
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
Splendor and banquets
Gold gathered in baskets
Rome celebrates its climax
As Capitolium stands on marble
Rotting skeletons floor the garden
Where the sprout of the empire grows
Soldiers scrape behind a purple drape
"Now it's all said and done
I end what I begun
I came, saw and won"
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
Hands are touching and fists are clenching
Inside the Senate the truce is stenching
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
Not for the Senate
All is for Rome
Ecstatic triumph is running through the sacred road
The total domain undoubted and foretold
Prisoners cry for mercy from the bottom of their cells
Powerless, the answer they heard were their yells
Conquering the enemy, winning the heart of Rome
Soldiers scrape behind a purple drape
Painful years without the sun
He is the chosen one
He came, saw and won
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
Splendor and banquets
Gold gathered in baskets
Rome celebrates its climax
As Capitolium stands on marble
Rotting skeletons floor the garden
Where the sprout of the empire grows
Soldiers scrape behind a purple drape
"Now it's all said and done
I end what I begun
I came, saw and won"
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
Hands are touching and fists are clenching
Inside the Senate the truce is stenching
Women and men cry
Fears to force out from elation
The echo of a shout:
Veni, vidi, vici
Caesar sublimes
Veni, vidi, vici
The empire will rise
