Let me begin from the start
Of how the new world came to be
From their comforts they depart
Charged with destiny
Sailing deep uncharted seas
On an enterprise
In search and fame and glory

Fortune spins her wheel
With one hand granting favors
Taking their chances in
The lottery of adventure
Their lots were cast
But they remained steadfast

He’s the instrument of providence
In command of the fleet
Be caught dead or damned before
He accepts defeat
Beyond the edge of the frontier
He led his cavaliers
Against all odds

Fortune spins her wheel
With one hand granting favors
Taking their chances in
The lottery of adventure
Their lots were cast
But they remained steadfast

Fortune’s caress turns quickly to blows
A man’s resolve is even quicker show
To remain un-phased
The embers of determination turn to a blaze

They commend their souls to god
And their bodies to hardships
No prize ever came from sloth
But from great exertions
A weary journey lay ahead
They’re sworn to their lord
Live and die by the Sword

Fortune spins her wheel
With one hand granting favors
Taking their chances in
The lottery of adventure
Their lots were cast
But they remained steadfast

Fortune favors the brave
Fortune chooses her slaves
Fortune spins her wheel
There’s a price for each deal
So what’s the price to conquer?
