lyrics

The first taste of blood
Given by your brother
This first easy victim
This first slaughtered corpse
To build on
Your wooden palace

Feel my axe
Feel my blade of justice
I'm God Of War!
In my bloodsquirted paradise

The Romans in the south
Their wrath on you
For the hostage of Aetius
Their rage, your key, your gate
To pile carcasses of your kingdom

444 the war has begun
Money the cause
Greed is the reason
Blood the price
And your unholy slaughter
The root of your rise

447 a punch in the face of the Roman force
Three years later gaul burns
West Germania bows
Under the shine of your curse
And now you're heading for Rome

At the gates of Rome
The highpriest of Christ
Crossed your path of destruction
Heathendom or Christianity
Was it god or was it fear
That broke your own divinity
Now you bow, betray yourself
Betray God Of War

Ages of chaos, murder and crime
Will end with your fall
Your reign of blood destroyed
By your own blood spilled
Just to be replaced by another
God Of War
