I take a look into the blackened sky This night might be my final night Tomorrow in the arena I will fight And I know the rule, kill or die The morning has come and here I am In the center of the arena Under the burning Sun A gladiator is waiting to attack Winds of fear blow through my heart He takes a step, well so am I He is kicking sand upon my eyes My flowing blood it's all I see But I cannot see from where I bleed The crowd is as one at their feet With thumbs down, they scream kill and kill The emperor is standing proud As flesh and blood lies on the ground Fight-fight under the sign of the arena Beware the lions Fight-fight under the sign of the arena Live by the blade die by the sword Fight! Fight! Gladiator My bones all broken I can feel the pain As he strikes me once again The emperor is standing proud Another blow in my helmet And now I'm falling down My body soon will be food for the crows As he is ready to give the final blow The last moment I spin and I raise my sword And I raise it hard into his throte Now it's his turn to stay on the ground The blood warm is running from his mouth I take my hammer I crush his neck And with my sword I cut his head The crowd is as one at their feet With thumbs down, they scream kill and kill The emperor is standing proud As flesh and blood lies on the ground Fight-fight under the sign of the arena Beware the lions Fight-fight under the sign of the arena Live by the blade die by the sword Fight! Fight! Gladiator
