Hundred years before our Lord from the cradle to the sword
A sign of what's to come of what can be undone
On to conquest tempting fate in the footsteps of the great
A consul on the move he's building bridges and his
Enemies enter the field
Knowing their fate has been sealed
Africa Italy Spain and Gaul will kneel
He is crossing the Rubicon
Heading home to where he belong
Born to rule it alone the glory of Rome
He is crossing the Rubicon
Over the river at last the die has been cast
Fortune does favour the brave from the Senate to the grave
This man would seek it all this man would heed the call
The Republics doom and fall he's the man who caused it all
Dictator on the move he's burning bridges as his
Grip of the power of Rome
Secured as he heads for the throne
The 15th of March the knives would cut to the bone
He is crossing the Rubicon
Heading home to where he belong
Born to rule it alone the glory of Rome
He is crossing the Rubicon
Over the river at last the die has been cast
He is crossing the Rubicon
Heading home to where he belong
Born to rule it alone the glory of Rome
He is crossing the Rubicon
Over the river at last the die has been cast
