✨ Lyrics:
Verse 1 (Low, rhythmic vocals) From Thrace I came, sword in hand,
Bound in chains, to a foreign land,
The arena waits, where honor dies,
But on these sands, a legend will rise.

The gates of iron creak wide,
Flesh and steel where the fates collide,
A beast of claws, teeth that rend,
Today I fight, or meet my end.


Chorus (Epic, chanted by a choir, transitioning to metal) In the dust, the blood, we fight,
For the crowd, for Rome’s delight,
Glory in death, honor in pain,
Fight till no breath remains!

Verse 2 (Intense, with deeper metal riffs) The lion roars, and charges fast,
I feel its breath, this could be my last,
But with a twist, I dodge the strike,
Thrust my blade, and take its life.

Now comes the clash of man and steel,
A brother of the blade, his fate I feel,
Our eyes meet across the crimson sand,
We fight for Rome, for death’s command.


Chorus (Refrain, even heavier metal influence) In the dust, the blood, we fight,
For the crowd, for Rome’s delight,
Glory in death, honor in pain,
Fight till no breath remains!

Bridge (Orchestration softens, more reflective) We are slaves, but warriors still,
Bound to fight, against our will,
But in this clash, I’ll rise anew,
And fall if fate decides me to.

Final Chorus (Choir and metal in unison, grand finish) In the dust, the blood, we fight,
For the crowd, for Rome’s delight,
Glory in death, honor in pain,
Fight till no breath remains!
