The tension in the air is so thick you can slice it The general attitude is just a prelude to war The strategy you plan must be concise and decisive The army you command must be ready to die for The moment of truth is finally here It's better that you make a stand, war is near Hold your ground, never plead They'd rather die on their feet than live on their knees Steel and flesh clash in battle, blood stains the fields Bodies burst, limbs are severed, still they don't yield 300,000 adversaries dressed in their best Three hundred Spartans stand as, one they're not so impressed The moment of truth is finally here It's better that you make a stand, a war is near Hold your ground, never plead They'd rather die on their feet than live on their knees Go! Fight! f**! k** (Spartans) We may not live beyond this day (Spartans) The hot gates stand for all to see (Spartans) Once we were destined to be kings (Spartans) Unconquered Spartan men were we (Spartans) Go (Spartans) Fight (Spartans) f** k** Spartans
