(Odysseus)
Alright, my brothers, listen closely
Tonight, we make the Trojans pay
Ten years of war, they killed us slowly
But now we’ll be the ones who slay
Think of your wives and your children
Your families wonder where you’ve been
They’re growing old
And yet, you’re still here
Do what I say, and you’ll see them again
(Ensemble)
Yes, sir!
(Odysseus)
Diomedes will lead the charge
Agamemnon will flank the guards
Menelaus will let our mates through the gates
To take the whole city at large
Teucer will shoot any ambush attack and
Little Ajax will stay back
Nestor!
Secure Helen and protect her
Neo!
Avenge your father
Kill the brothers of Hector
(Ensemble)
Yes, sir!
(Odysseus)
Find that inner strength now
Use that well of pride
Fight through every pain now
Ask yourself inside:
What do you live for?
What do you try for?
What do you wish for?
What do you fight for?
(Ensemble)
What do you live for?
What do you try for?
What do you wish for?
What do you fight for?
(Odysseus)
Penelope –
Penelope –
And Telemachus –
I fight for us
I fight for us
(Ensemble)
What do you live for?
(Odysseus)
Penelope
(Ensemble)
What do you try for?
(Odysseus)
Telemachus
(Ensemble)
What do you wish for?
(Odysseus)
I’m on my way
(Ensemble)
What do you fight for?
(Odysseus)
Attack!
[01:49.486]
(Odysseus)
Who was that?
(Zeus)
A vision
Of what is to come
Cannot be outrun
Can only be dealt with right here and now
(Odysseus)
Tell me how
(Zeus)
I don’t think you’re ready
A mission
To kill someone’s son
A foe who won’t run
Unlike anyone you have faced before
(Odysseus)
Say no more
I know that I’m ready
(Zeus)
I don’t think you’re ready
[02:32.780]
(Odysseus)
It’s just an infant
It’s just a boy
What sort of imminent threat does he pose
That I cannot avoid?
(Zeus)
This is the son of none other than
Troy’s very own Prince Hector
Know that he will grow from
A boy to an avenger
One fumed with rage
As you’re consumed by age
If you don’t end him now
You’ll have on one left to save
You can say goodbye to…
(Ensemble)
Penelope
(Zeus)
You can say goodbye to
(Ensemble)
Penelope
(Odysseus)
I could raise him as my own
(Zeus)
He will burn your house and throne
(Odysseus)
Or send him far away from home
(Zeus)
He’ll find you wherever you go
(Odysseus)
Make sure his past is never known
(Zeus)
The Gods will make it known
(Odysseus)
I’d rather bleed for ya
Down on my knees for ya
(Zeus)
He’s bringing you down on your knees for ya
(Odysseus)
I’m begging you
Please
(Zeus)
Oh, this is the will of the Gods
(Odysseus)
Please don’t make me do this
Don’t make me do this
(Zeus)
The blood on your hands is
Something you won’t lose
(Gods)
All you can choose is whose
