AdE - 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
