Fate decree

That all the land shall be

Divided into three

Partitioned equally

Zeus will take the air

Poseidon take the sea

And Hades take the underworld

To rule beside his queen Persephone

Eternally

Heracles

A warrior and slave

A sinner and a killer

Whose sins must be repaid

In the eyes of the gods

Must fulfill his final rite

And travel to the Eleusinian

Who will take him to the afterlife

To cross the River Styx

An obelus for toll

To reach the seven gates

Outside of the abode of the dead

This place is not a place for those

Who seek not to be damned

The souls in purgatory

Live forever die forever

On we march

Through death we march

To hell and back

To claim the beast

That guards the gates of Hades

Fight it drag it back

Redeem the sins of Heracles

An epic adventure a journey by sea

Black sails of Odysseus' fleet

Take me to Ithaca

Take me away from this desolate place

Upon his return

A ram will be slain

Obsidian sacrifice

Beckon the souls of the dead

To hell I descend

Epic descent into Hades

Fall Into Hell

Curse of the serpent Eurydice dies

Taken forsaken the deity cries

A symphony forged on the blood of the slain

A sonnet of misery power and pain

Power and Pain

Ghosts of the dead appear in your sight

Tormenting relentlessly into the night

An evil enforcer

A victim of merciless anger

An angel of fear

A river of hate, a mountain of fire

Immortal desire burning your soul

Assuming control

Eyes are burning world is turning

Hades calling demons crawling

Out of a crack in the sky

Straight to the bottom of hell

On we march

Through death we march

To hell we march

The end is near
