Artaxerxes II Mnemon Songtext
von Arrayan Path

Who is the lord of your empire?
From eastern shores he rose to be a ruler
And he wears the crown
For the man that he trusted fewer
Sometimes a threat, sometimes an enemy in war
He wears the crown
Defiler of the ancient helot

Now he breathes like a lion on your neck
Don′t try to run, better have him as your friend
He will desecrate your gods and burn you in his wrath
Slave in no man's land


He bears the crown of wisdom
He wears the frown of wisdom
He bears the crown of wisdom
He is the lie some season
He is the life of seasons
Slowly to life, I am the one
Artaxerxes, lord of the empire

Robbed the young Tuscanian for Syrian peace
Fought like a king, brought his brother to his knees
Trickster, trickster, what have you done?
Slave in no man′s land

He bears the crown of wisdom
He wears the frown of wisdom
He bears the crown of wisdom
He is the lie some season
He is the life of seasons
Slowly to life, I am the one
He bears the crown of wisdom
He wears the frown of wisdom
He bears the crown of wisdom
He is the lie some season
He is the life of seasons
Slowly to life, I am the one
Artaxerxes, lord of the empire, empire
