Who was that?
[Verse 3]
--- ZEUS, (ODYSSEUS) ---
A vision of wh
at is to come,
can not be out
run, can only
be dealt with
right here and
now (Tell me
how)
I don't think
you're ready
A mission to k
ill someone's
son,
a foe who won'
t run, unlike
anyone you hav
e
faced before (
Say no more)
(I know that I
'm ready) I do
n't think you'
re ready
[Bridge]
--- ODYSSEUS ---
It's just an i
nfant, it's ju
st a boy, what
sort of
imminent threa
t does he pose

on't end him
now you'll hav
e no one left
to save, you c
an say goodbye
to

u can say good
bye to

[Chorus 3]
--- ODYSSEUS, (ZEUS) ---
I could raise
him as my own
(He will burn
your house and
throne)
Or send him fa
r away from ho
me
(He'll find yo
u wherever you
go)
Make sure his
past is never
known
(The gods will
make it known
)
I'd rather ble
ed for ya
(They’re bringing you down on your knees for ya)
I’m on my kn
ees for ya, I'
m begging plea
se
(Oh, this is t
he will of the
gods)
[Outro]
--- ODYSSEUS, (ZEUS) ---
Please don't m
ake me do this
, don't make m
e do this
(The blood on
your hands is
something you
won't lose)
(All you can c
hoose is whose
)
