Civil War | I Will Rule the Universe | Lyrics

I do not own this song, only the lyric video.

Lyrics:
I will rule the universe

1804 as emperor sworn
Soldier at heart a child of war
Napoleon Bonaparte
A master of the game and equal to God
Invading the lands of greed and fraud
Turned warfare to an art

He was known as the chosen one
Born 1769 in Corsica
His family's joy and pride
It is just like a fairy tale
This boy was not for sale
And he never lied, but how he cried:

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

Who could believe this boy would achieve
All of his dreams and what he believed
It went down in history
But luck has an end you know it too well
Heaven is bound to turn into Hell
His time was running out

At the battle of Waterloo
No chance; the enemy was far to strong
And here's another song
It was the end of the fairy tale
Everyone is bound to fail
It must be right; but damn he tried

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

There are many types of heroes,
And this is one of a kind
In these days so full of zeros,
I keep gazing at the sky

He was known as the chosen one
Born 1769 in Corsica
His family's joy and pride
It is just like a fairy tale
This boy was not for sale
And he never lied, but how he cried:

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

I swear to god i get deeper down the metal rabbit hole, sabaton introduced me now i listen to powerwolf, civil war, and to some death metal, if somebody told me 5 years ago i wouldnt have believed them

[HarveyDentt]

Damn, I hate it so much when I see music I like in the replies, I can already hear it in my head and suddenly an advertisement comes on. Well, it just ruins my mood and I can't listen to it anymore

[fadhilmauladhani]

THEN THE WINGED HUSSAR ARRI.. oh wrong song

[JDKDKDLDKDKDKDKKKDERYY]

to be honest the term "Art of War" is 2500 years old, so Warfrare was an Art before Napoleon. Sabaton listeners know that.

[emperoralexander]

Vive l'Empereur ! Vive la France !

[vinmarwhesliebuizon]

The opening instruments are similar to sabaton's carolous Rex😀

[tutorialsforidiots]

"In these days so full of zeroes
I keep gazing at the sky"
This represents me so much

[henrypaleveda]

In my fantasy story there is a recurring villain and this song kinda fits his origin: He was the first blond child born "having returned wreathed in firey sunlight" and was brought up being told that he would save their land from a coming darkness. the darkness came when a black dragon cast clouds over the continent. Knowing that he couldn't fight a dragon as he was, he searcheced for immortality and succeeded. On his way to fight the beast he was given and axe made from on of its teeth "the bond of the dead." The immortal was injured on his way to the beast and has spent the centuries gathering new strength and making armies t destroy it once and for all.

[milosnikolic]

Powerful song for a powerful emperor and general

[Lord-Inquisitor]

He was the last of a rare breed. If there was a Napoleon today, I'd fight for him.

[SgtDinoBoy]

When I first heard of it, I thought it was sabaton
I didn't know other bands did songs about military history

[lukanikezic]

In waterloo he was betrayed by his marshalls
