"The EP’s closing track is an anthem of resilience and renewal. Vespasian emerges as a figure of stability amid the chaos, and the music reflects his calculated strength. Triumphant melodies intertwine with thunderous percussion, capturing his consolidation of power and the restoration of Rome’s fractured empire. The lyrics exalt Vespasian as the harbinger of a new era, culminating in a resounding declaration of victory and legacy. His reign ushers in the Flavian dynasty and a semblance of peace."

Lyrics:

The sun brings light to the end 

Stability through force and power 

In this dominion, I will bring justice 

Bring forth the legions of the chosen 

Set forth the shields of war 

Destiny is mine, the sounds of madness, despair and agony for the true voice of Rome 

Embellish the shrine, destroy the opposition of fire, Vespasian rise, to the glory of light 

Hear me victorious
Feel my spear pierce though the earth 

Bring forth the legions of the chosen 
Set forth the shields of war... of war 

Hear the chants of the people, finally freedom is upon us, Rejoice ­

I Walked amongst the gods
Deified through defiance 

Destiny is mine, the sounds of madness, despair and agony for the true voice of Rome 
Embellish the shrine, destroy the opposition of fire, Vespasian rise!
