Intro: Listen close, a tale of might unfolds Of a boy who'd conquer worlds untold Born to rule, with fire in his veins Alexander the Great, history proclaims Verse 1: Born in Pella, son of Philip's might Olympias' boy, destined to ignite A flame of conquest, burning ever bright Young Alexander, raised to rule and fight Chorus: Alexander, child of destiny Taught by sages, bred for victory Alexander, legend in the making A world of empires, soon to be his taking Verse 2: Aristotle's pupil, sharp of mind Philosophy and war, two paths entwined The stars and earth, all knowledge to be mined A king in training, leaving boys behind (Chorus) Verse 3: Bucephalus, the horse no man could tame The prince saw through its fear, and won his fame "Turn to the sun," he said, and changed the game His father knew then, greatness was his aim Bridge: From Macedon's green hills to Persia's sands A world awaits the touch of Alexander's hands But first, the lessons learned in boyhood's lands Will shape the king who'll rule a thousand strands (Chorus) Outro: The stage is set, the boy becomes a man The world will tremble at his battle plan But that's a tale for another song's span For now, we leave him where it all began
