Master of the Universe

Across the fields of battle
Where the earth does shake
Trample the opposition
And leave the dead in my wake
Astride my mighty beast
Across the plains and trees
I bring war to the weak
I rise, a shadow robed priest
 
Born of tales of treachery
Leaving flame on the trail
Destroy, annihilation
And leave this world in the hell
Devised of my own will
By the sword, break the seal
For I am the soul stealer
Arise, til my foes are nil  
 
Skull! Upon this face
Place! Their broken hearts
Part! With their freedom
 
Kneel! Upon your knees
Plead! From the dirt
Curse! I am master
Of the universe
 
"Now. I, Skeletor, am Master of the Universe!
YES! Yes... I feel it, the power... fills me.
Yes, I feel the universe within me!  
I am... I am a part of the cosmos!
Its energy flows... flows through me!  
Of what consequence are you now?  
This planet, these people, they are nothing to me!
The universe is power - pure, unstoppable power!  
And I am that force, I am that power!  
KNEEL BEFORE YOUR MASTER!"
 
Prepare for a life in chains
To live as a slave
Secure in your position
For the night will seize the day
Exist under sorcery
Looking up from your knees
I will hold this dominion
I rise to hold the key
 
Such foolish pride
To stand before me
Defenseless, powerless
I will break you
 
"Fool!
You are no longer my equal!  
I am more than man!  
More than life!  
I... am... a... God!"
 
Crimson smear, blood stained lash
You cower before
Me, broken in damnation
The bodies wash to the shore
The fallen, my enemy
Hear screams across seas
You know I am the power
As you die on fallen leaves
 
"Do you hear?  
The Alpha...  
and the Omega...  
death and rebirth...  
and as you die,  
so will I be reborn!"
