[VERSE 1] Under the mountains, under the sky, We hear the Roman drums draw nigh. Steel on the valley, fire in the night, But we hold the line for our right to fight. They came with eagles, thousands strong, We knew this war could not last long. But better to die beneath the sun, Than live in chains when the battle is done. [CHORUS] I cannot run, I cannot win, But I will stay and fight. If I will fall with honour, Before the morning light. If this is where my journey ends, If death takes me tonight, I will wait for you on the other side, My love forever... My love forever... [Emotional electric guitar solo, clean melodic guitar with delay and reverb, expressive bends, sustained notes and a haunting guitar melody] [VERSE 2] Our fathers' voices call our names, Through mountain winds and fields of flame. For every brother, for every son, For freedom lost, for freedom won. The Roman shields are closing in, The final battle will begin. No road behind us, no surrender cry, We raise our swords and face the sky. [CHORUS] I cannot run, I cannot win, But I will stay and fight. If I will fall with honour, Before the morning light. If this is where my journey ends, If death takes me tonight, I will wait for you on the other side, My love forever... My love forever... [BRIDGE] Let the mountains remember, Let the rivers carry our name. We may fall beneath their empire, But they cannot chain our flame. [FINAL CHORUS] I cannot run, I cannot win, But I will stay and fight. If I will fall with honour, Before the morning light. If this is where my journey ends, If death takes me tonight, I will wait for you on the other side, My love forever... My love forever...
