Symphony X - Champion Of Ithaca (onscreen lyrics)

Artist: SYMPHONY X
Album: "The Odyssey" (2002)
Song: "Champion Of Ithaca (The Odyssey: part VII)"
Lyrics:
So this is home...
In the guise of a beggar - Minerva guides my way
I find my kingdom in jeopardy
Vengeance - it swells within me
As I spy so many who eye my Queen
I'll make them pay for this blasphemy... All will see
Triumphant - Champion of Ithaca
I will right all the wrongs
Let the Gods sing my song
Triumphant - Champion of Ithaca
Let a new life begin
My journey has come to an end
A contest of valor
"To pierce the twelve rings
in a single arrow's flight"
Yet, not a one can string the bow
My veil of silence lifted
All is revealed
Revenge burns in my heart
Thrashing and slashing down all my foes...to claim the throne
Triumphant - Champion of Ithaca
I will right all the wrongs
Let the Gods sing my song
Triumphant - Champion of Ithaca
Let a new life begin
this is the end of my Odyssey
Seems like forever that my eyes have been denied
Home - I'm finally home
I've been twenty years away from all I ever knew
I have returned to make my dream come true

One of the best climaxes to any song ever. Only thing I’d ever MAYBE change would be how many times they repeat the words “TRIUMPHANT CHAMPION OF ITHICA!!!” I could listen to that chorus over and over and over again.

Absolutely epic isn'it 😍

[@vaxobedoidze3623]

I would make solo longer too ... Everytime I listen to whole Odyssey song, I can't wait for the Champion Of Ithaca part to come ...

[@Metalpazallteway]

I feel the same thing. I'd definitely add more Brass

I saw them live in 2019. they closed the concert with the whole "the odissey" suite. when this part kicked in, a 40+ years old man next to me started to shed tears... and he wasn't the only one with wet eyes. such a moving moment, probably the best musical experience I ever had.

I sing this everyday after I finish my shift!

[@Steele_Hard]

absolute masterpiece

[@SeffyRoth]

I called in sick Monday, and went into work today. The Odyssey was my theme as I kicked ass through that warehouse... TRIUMPHANT! Champion of Warehouse 34!

Whether you consider it a song or outro its one of my favorites in all of metal

[@IronianKnight]

This video is kickass! Your timing is great on the text, and of course the song itself is fantastic.
