Lyrics
[Orchestral Intro - Horns + Strings]
[Verse 1]
Live by reason, not by emotion
Vive secundum rationem, non secundum affectionem
Control what you can, release the rest
Ages quod agendum est
Pain is temporary, character is forever
Dolor temporarius est, character aeternus est
Don’t complain about the storm, learn to sail
Non de tempestate quereris, sed navigare disce
[Pre-Hook]
Old words, new war
Speak it in Latin, then hit ‘em once more
Speak it plain, then speak it old
Dic simpliciter, deinde dic antiquitus
Wisdom hits harder when it’s carved in gold
Sapientia fortius ferit cum in auro sculpitur
From English to Latin, back and forth we go
Ab Anglico ad Latinum, et retro eamus
Stoic mind, empire flow
Mens Stoica, imperii fluxus[Hook]
[Verse 2]
You can’t control the world, control yourself
Mundum regere non potes, te ipsum rege
Obstacles become the way
Obstacula viam faciunt
Act with virtue, even when no one’s watching
Age cum virtute, etiamsi nemo videt
This too shall pass, remember you’re mortal
Hoc quoque transibit, memento te mortalem esse
[Bridge - Strings solo, spoken]
The Greeks started it... the Romans perfected it
Graeci coeperunt... Romani perfecerunt
Marcus wrote it in a war tent
Marcus in tabernaculo belli scripsit
[Verse 3]
Face fear with courage, not with pride
Metum cum fortitudine, non cum superbia adire
Take what comes, and make it useful
Accipe quod venit, et utile fac
Wealth doesn’t make you rich, need does
Divitiae te divitem non faciunt, necessitas facit
Die with honor, live without fear
Cum honore mori, sine timore vivere
[Final Hook]
Speak it plain, then speak it old
Dic simpliciter, deinde dic antiquitus
Wisdom hits harder when it’s carved in gold
Sapientia fortius ferit cum in auro sculpitur
From English to Latin, back and forth we go
Ab Anglico ad Latinum, et retro eamus
Stoic mind, empire flow
Mens Stoica, imperii fluxus
