about

A song about the greek sun god Apollo and his glorious tale.
I originally wrote this song for Terra Atlantica but decided to use it in another way.

lyrics

far beyond the mortal sky
ride your chariot up high
and your path will shine on
by the powers of the sun
rising glorious and bright
lord of prophecies and light
our youth will prevail
you are born to triumph
never fail

the fury of Hera
was driving Leto into dark despair
no part of the land touched by the sun
granted the birth of her own son

then out of the tide Poseidon did ride
and by the force of trident's might
arose from the sea an island so free
untouched by the light

ooooh he is the lord of the future of men
ooooh he holds our destinies in his hands

far beyond the mortal sky
ride your chariot up high
and your path will shine on
by the powers of the sun
rising glorious and bright
lord of prophecies and light
our youth will prevail
you are born to triumph
never fail

teh battle is raging
Titans are crawling up from the abyss
breaching the wall
Olympus must fall
this is the final showdown

at Hercules' side Apollo will fight
derending the fortress through the night
raise up your sword and claim your reward
it is your ancient destiny

ooooh he is the lord of the future of men
ooooh he holds our destinies in his hands

far beyond the mortal sky
ride your chariot up high
and your path will shine on
by the powers of the sun
rising glorious and bright
lord of prophecies and light
our youth will prevail
you are born to triumph
never fail

ooooh he is the lord of the future of men
ooooh he holds our destinies in his hands

far beyond the mortal sky
ride your chariot up high
and your path will shine on
by the powers of the sun
rising glorious and bright
lord of prophecies and light
our youth will prevail
you will always triumph
never fail
