[Intro]
Will the anger ever end?
And will there be forgiveness for everything I've done?
I destroyed my life
I killed my family
Deceived by the gods
So many times
Each of these damned ones
Will pay
This is for my family
For my wife and daughter
I swear Olympus will fall
I will take revenge!

[Verse I]
The gods betrayed me, took away my hope
And that's why it's enough
The damned will regret provoking the fury
Of the Ghost of Sparta
Ares, you created a monster
The best warrior, blinded by anger
And with Pandora's Box that day
The monster you created took your life
Warn the gods that I am the new God of War
The bastard son that Zeus disowned on Earth
On Mount Olympus there will be no stone left unturned
Today is the day when the era of the gods ends
Every Olympian in the way is destroyed
The sky, the earth and the seas; I will end everything
And if our world gets in my way
I will destroy the world!

[Pre-Chorus I]
Let the doors of the apocalypse open
The sky black as an eclipse day
Where the light of hope does not exist
Forgive me, Lysandra and Calliope
For every mistake this man made
It's because he went through hell and survived
I will never die and it's because I...
I'm a god!

[CHORUS]
I am...
Ruin of the gods
Ghost of Sparta
Kratos!
The man who drowned
The world in his anger
So it's better not to mess with what's mine
I'm not joking, didn't you realize
I will never die and it's because I...
I'm a god!

[Bridge]
Will the anger ever end?
And will there be forgiveness for everything I've done?
A new life
A new family

[Verse II]
I abandoned my land
I abandoned my war
I went to a new world
I found another way
In a new era
I put the beast to sleep
My wife passed away
Now it's just me and my son
Boy
You are still very young
If you think you know everything
You will be a fool many times
I wanted to spare you
But do you want to know the truth?
We are not humans, my son
We are gods
Atreus, I'm not from here, I came from a distant land
I tried to bury everything I lived before
I don't know if I deserve a second chance
My son, your father's story is stained in blood
Just don't let arrogance dominate your heart
The power we have brings anguish and perdition
Being what we are, we are left with loneliness
Being a god is not a blessing, it's our curse

[Pre-Chorus II]
Did my hope die?
I'm guilty of what happened
The truth is that the monster is me
Forgive me, Faye and Atreus
For every mistake this man made
It's because he went through hell and survived
I will never die and it's because I...
I'm a god!

[CHORUS]
I am...
Ruin of the gods
Ghost of Sparta
Kratos!
The man who drowned
The world in his anger
So it's better not to mess with what's mine
I'm not joking, didn't you realize
I will never die and it's because I...
I'm a god!
