(Verse I)
Darkness over the empire falls,
The gods are silent, the idols call!
From east to west, the old faith wanes,
The blood of Rome runs through new veins!
A vision burning through the sky,
The eagle’s wings and cross align!
Constantine rides to history’s door,
The old world is no more!
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
Steel and faith, the chosen path,
He wears both crown and cross at last!
⸻
(Chorus)
The Eagle and the Cross!
Bound in fire, bound in loss!
One empire, one god, one name,
The world will never be the same!
The Eagle and the Cross!
Where Rome and Heaven meet,
The sword becomes the gospel flame,
And kings bow at his feet!
⸻
(Verse II)
The pagan temples fade to dust,
The legions kneel, the idols rust!
From Jupiter’s throne to holy creed,
A new Rome takes the lead!
Beneath the stars of Constantin’s reign,
The East will rise, the West shall wane!
The eagle flies with heaven’s light,
A symbol in the night!
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
Faith and power intertwine,
The mortal and the divine!
⸻
(Chorus)
The Eagle and the Cross!
Bound in fire, bound in loss!
One empire, one god, one name,
The world will never be the same!
The Eagle and the Cross!
From darkness into dawn,
By faith and flame, the world reborn,
The Empire marches on!
⸻
(Bridge – Spoken over choir and slow drums)
“He saw the sign upon the sun,
And swore beneath that holy fire —
By cross and crown, by sword and faith,
Rome shall never tire.”
(Chanted background)
In hoc signo vinces! In hoc signo vinces!
With this sign — we conquer!
⸻
(Guitar Solo – soaring, melodic, reverent)
⸻
(Final Chorus)
The Eagle and the Cross!
Bound in faith, forever lost!
Through blood and time, the empire stands,
Held in Heaven’s hands!
The Eagle and the Cross!
The gods of old are gone,
But Rome endures in holy flame,
Forever marching on!
⸻
(Outro – Choir fades out)
“Eternal Rome… by sword, by faith, by flame…”
[Guitar Solo]
