[Intro] [Spoken, almost whispered, soft choir in background] I am Leonidas, King of Sparta… Born to fight, born to lead, forged in the fire of discipline… (HAH!) (HAH!) [Verse] I ran through the sands of Sparta, training from dawn till dusk Every strike, every fall, a lesson etched in my flesh Brothers beside me, we shared the pain, we shared the oath To guard our land, our honor, with every heartbeat (HAH!) [Verse] Steel against steel, I became the man my father saw A shield for Sparta, a spear for her glory I feel the weight of every eye, every soul counting on me The blood of my ancestors flowing in my veins (HAH!) (HAH!) [Pre-Chorus - (Choir only) ] This is our stand, this is our fight We hold the line, we face the night No fear, no falter, the pass is ours Together, unbroken, we meet the stars [Chorus - (with choir)] We hold the pass! HOLD IT! Spartans rise! SPARTANS!!!! Against the tide, we defy ! Our hearts burn, our swords strike ! For Sparta! FOR SPARTA!! For honor! (HONOR!) For life! (HAH!) (HAH!) [Verse] The enemy comes, shadows stretching across the narrow way I see them through the dust, I hear the drums of war Every glance, every breath, sharp as the spear I wield I am the wall, I am the shield, I am the storm (HAH!) [Verse] I feel the fear, the doubt, the burden of the fallen Yet courage burns brighter than the fear of death For every Spartan who stands beside me, I am unbroken For Sparta, for glory, our names will echo forever (HAH!) [Pre-Chorus - (Choir only) ] This is our stand, this is our fight We hold the line, we face the night No fear, no falter, the pass is ours Together, unbroken, we meet the stars [Chorus - (with choir)] We hold the pass! HOLD IT! Spartans rise! SPARTANS!!!! Against the tide, we defy ! Our hearts burn, our swords strike ! For Sparta! FOR SPARTA!! For honor! (HONOR!) For life! (HAH!) (HAH!) [Bridge- (choir only)] Thunder of shields, clash of steel Echoes of courage, the fire we feel Fate may come, the end may near But our spirit lives, crystal clear (HAH!) [Outro - Musical fade-out, choir and wind, no vocals)] The pass remains… the Spartans remain… (HAH!)
