THE GOD OF GOTHAM

V6

[Intro] Look to the sky. Hear the thunder. You have mistaken this city for your kingdom. You were wrong. Gotham has a god. And his name... Is Maxie Zeus. [Verse 1] I walked among the mortal men And saw their weakness everywhere They built their towers They built their throne But none of them were worthy to own I bring the lightning I bring the flame Bow before me Remember my name The gods have returned The age begins Gotham will kneel And Zeus will win [Pre-Chorus] Raise your eyes! Hear the thunder call! The mortal world Is about to fall! [Chorus] I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! BOW BEFORE THE SKY! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! WATCH THE LIGHTNING RISE! YOU BUILT THIS CITY! BUT I WILL CLAIM IT ALL! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! AND I WILL NEVER FALL! [Verse 2] The Bat hides beneath the night Pretending that he owns the dark But even bats must fear the storm When lightning leaves its mark Your little symbols Your little war Mean nothing when the heavens roar I don't need fear I don't need gold I need only faith And a city to control [Pre-Chorus] Can you hear them? The thunder speaks! The gods have chosen! The weak will kneel! [Chorus] I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! BOW BEFORE THE SKY! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! WATCH THE LIGHTNING RISE! YOU BUILT THIS CITY! BUT I WILL CLAIM IT ALL! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! AND I WILL NEVER FALL! [Bridge] Zeus! Hera! Ares! Athena! The old gods are calling! And Gotham... Will answer! [Breakdown] LIGHTNING! THUNDER! FIRE FROM THE SKY! KNEEL! KNEEL! KNEEL BEFORE YOUR GOD! I AM ZEUS! I AM POWER! I AM IMMORTAL! I AM THE STORM! [Final Chorus] I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! HEAR MY NAME! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! BOW BEFORE THE FLAME! THE BAT CAN FIGHT! THE CITY CAN SCREAM! BUT GODS DON'T DIE... THEY BECOME THE DREAM! I AM THE GOD OF GOTHAM! LOOK TO THE SKY! I AM MAXIE ZEUS! AND I... WILL... NEVER... DIE! [Outro] Thunder. Silence. A final whisper: Bow before your god.
