Welcome back, punks and rebels, you're listening to Radio Free Ilium, broadcasting whenever we can on whatever frequencies we can hack. Let's start with a song for the haters out there who, uh, polish Olympian Spears. The government may say he's a crook, but we know who the real crooks are. You all know this one: it's Prometheus by TLS!
[Verse 1]
Five years into the Ilium war the city built a firewall
That cut us from their urban sprawl and kept the signal out
The barricades they’d tried and failed, their green recruits our men had nailed
But without the wireless beat of life we were finally cut off
But then one man broke through
Found a way to aid our righteous coup
[Chorus]
Prometheus, the hero who let us hold off the horde
Prometheus, who proved the keyboard’s mightier than the sword
Prometheus, he gave his life to keep our spirits strong
When we pass into the Acheron
We’ll be singing out his song
[Verse 2]
Our homes were burned and blighted shells, their military had overwhelmed
The movements of their soldiers now were veiled beyond our sight
Without a word, he gave us all the data that could bring their fall
He didn’t ask for accolades and didn’t name a price
He gave us hope, on that night
The lonely chance that kept us in the fight
[Chorus]
Prometheus, the hero who let us hold off the horde
Prometheus, who proved the keyboard’s mightier than the sword
Prometheus, he gave his life to keep our spirits strong
When we pass into the Acheron
We’ll be singing out his song
[Verse 3]
After what he did, Olympus couldn’t turn a blind eye
They’d lost so many soldiers that he surely had to die
They snatched him from his lair before he said his last goodbye
And they cracked down on his followers and set his world alight
But the legacy he left us means the gods we will defy
And even as our homeland dies we scream his battle cry!
[Chorus]
Prometheus, the hero who let us hold off the horde
Prometheus, who proved the keyboard’s mightier than the sword
Prometheus, he gave his life to keep our spirits strong
When we pass into the Acheron… we’ll be singing out his song
