[Intro – Bells & Choir]
For ten thousand years…
The Lion slept…
Now…
He rises…[Verse 1]
Stone remembers every secret,
Silent halls still guard his name.
Ancient banners wait in darkness,
Never yielding, never changed.
Robes of green and bone-white armor,
Blades untouched by rust or time.
Every oath still burns within us,
Every purpose still divine. ⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Light the beacons…
Raise the standards…
The First has come…
Awaken…
⸻ [Chorus]
The Lion awakens!
The First returns once more!
Shields together!
Swords united!
Like thunder before the storm!
Through the darkness…
Through deception…
Honor lights our way!
The Lion awakens!
The Emperor’s wrath today! [Verse 2]
Whispers echo through the fortress,
Ancient sins still cast their shade.
Brothers bear a silent burden,
Debts that never truly fade.
Yet when mankind calls for guardians,
Every knight will take his stand.
Duty stronger than our secrets,
Justice forged by steady hands. [Pre-Chorus]
Hear the trumpets…
Open heaven…
The Lion walks…
Again…[Chorus]
The Lion awakens!
No darkness shall remain!
Stand together!
Face the tempest!
In honor and in flame!
Steel unwavering…
Faith unbroken…
None shall make us kneel!
The Lion awakens!
The First shall never yield! [Bridge – Quiet Choir]
From forgotten dreams…
To living legend…
Hope returns…
On silent wings…
The galaxy remembers…
What it means…
To fear…
The First…
⸻ [Final Chorus – Massive Orchestra & Choir]
The Lion awakens!
Let every world proclaim!
The sons of Caliban have risen!
Glory to his name!
Through endless night…
Through endless war…
The Emperor’s light still burns!
The Lion awakens!
And hope…
Returns! ⸻
[Outro – Choir Fades]
Rise…
Lion…
Rise…
