Runes of Olympus

Yeah,

yeah

Come on, listen close

From the shores of the Aegean,

where the city-states would rise

Underneath the open dome

of those Mediterranean skies

Sparta trained the soldiers,

Athens shaped the mind

In the cradle of democracy,

the treasures left behind

Oh, the foundations laid so long ago (so long ago) Through the

trials of the past,

the river flows Built a path through the ages of time

With a vision so divine

Then came Alexander,

marching to the eastern land

Spreading out the language,

written by a scribe's hand

They translated the scrolls,

prepared the sacred way

Setting up the history

for what we speak today

Oh, the foundations laid so long ago (so long ago) Through the

trials of the past,

the river flows Built a path through the ages of time

With a vision so divine

History written in the stone

(written in the stone) We carry it on

Yeah,

we carry it on
