lyrics

I found my calling in the deep
A sacred promise I shall keep
From the depths long forgotten
I will take up the shield and sword
I will face the Tyrant’s hordes
End the war he has begotten

The gift of life came from the sea
Breathed into us clay figurines
I must return the favor
Feeling the Goddess shaping me
So I may destroy her enemies
Becoming something greater

The world at the mercy of my sword
I undertake this vow to go forth
I become the slayer of a thousand red-eyed serpents
I am the chosen one to save us all

So as the oceans rage
And as the Tyrant reigns
I undergo the change
I close my eyes and wait
Her magic through my veins
I feel it take hold

Bequeathed the gift to draw breath underwater
My right arm traded for a tasseled sword
The body honed to aquatic precision
A trinity of machine, man, and god, made for war

The ocean floor trembles with my arrival
I point my sword at the ground below
Caretakers rise from blackest of trenches
Armed to the teeth and ready to go
Slay them all, tyrants fall
Mount up on your steeds and charge
Go!

The world at the mercy of my sword
I undertake this vow to go forth
I have found my place between the cosmos and the roaring sea
I am the chosen one and resurrector of the gods

Rising from clay, born of the sea
Imbued with magic, divine energy
Caretakers rise, bend to my call
I am triumphant, for one, for all
This war shall end by my sacred hand
Strike the blow for humankind
Peace throughout the land
