Pax Romana (Cover)

[Intro - Deep bass dub, skankin' guitar fade in] Yo, from di Tiber mist, wolf-mother call, Rome rise up, but destined fi fall. Jah witness di blood, di empire's cry, Reggae rhythm tell di story high. [Chorus - Upbeat irie vibe, horns punchin'] Seven hills in blood, republic chain, Caesar cross Rubicon, feel di pain. Empire bloom from corpse, Pax in steel, Eternal city, tyrants wheel. Hail di fall, eternal night, Blackened throne, forgotten might! [Verse 1 - Mellow rhythm, echo dub] Shadowed mists by Tiber shore, Wolf-mother suckle forsaken more. Romulus rise wid blade in hand, Fratricide seal di sacred land. Senators scheme, daggers gleam bright, Legions thunder under eagle flight. [Chorus - Repeat wid ad-libs] Seven hills in blood, republic chain (oh yeah!), Caesar cross Rubicon, feel di pain. Empire bloom from corpse, Pax in steel, Eternal city, tyrants wheel. Hail di fall, eternal night, Blackened throne, forgotten might! [Verse 2 - Buildin' bass, organ swell] Gaul kneel down, Pharaoh bow low, Augustus crown in golden show. Colosseum drink gladiator gore, Gods of marble, altars pour. Corruption fester, emperors mad, Nero fiddle, ignite di bad. [Bridge - Slow dub, reverb echoes] Christians crucify, lions feast wild, Pagan flames devour di child. Barbarian whisper at di gate, Visigoths swarm, Alaric hate. Sack di streets, temples profane, Odoacer claim di fallen reign. [Chorus - Fade wid horns] Seven hills in blood, republic chain, Caesar cross Rubicon, feel di pain. Empire bloom from corpse, Pax in steel, Eternal city, tyrants wheel. Hail di fall, eternal night, Blackened throne, forgotten might! [Outro - Bass drop, irie fade] Roma invicta, shattered dream... Dark ages swallow, one love supreme.
