[Verse 1: Jerome Chance]

Stolen from his home

As a boy he was cloned

To disguise the disruption

Government corruption

Trained and rebrained

He was living unexplained with

Several dozen other kids

Living all the same

First and the last name?

Thing of the past

To keep him unencumbered

To them he's just a number

Technology, biology

Cubernetics augmenting

His actions and reactions but

Numbers turned to fractions

The procedure wouldn't give

Only 33 lived!

Enough if they're tough

As the Agean Sea breed

Briefed on a new threat

Hoping for relief

An alliance of races

Sowing devastation

Bore witness to the light

But he had to leave the fight

His brothers held the fort

As he made off in the night

Off into the deep

In a cryogenic sleep

With the light to show his enemies

They've sown what they reaped


[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Jerome Chance]

Awaken from his slumber

His ship was going under

Crashed on the Halo

Discovered the Forerunners

Parasite left over still

Halo was overkill but

Light preserved life

They returned to the strife

First strike as Justice sent

He rejoined brethren

Plus he rediscovered the

Mother of his brothers

The teaming was incredible

Delaying the inevitable

Awarded meritorious

Aliens inglorious

Amber clad Assassin

Regret to be known!

The parasite had grown a

Mind of its own

So he was sent with light to

Finish the fight

On the home of his race

With his foe he would chase

The most destructive enemy

The galaxy had faced

Victorious allied and

Heroes Never Die

By the light followed truth

Through the light brought the law

With the light he moved forward;

Forward Unto Dawn

To 300 of your best

And stick his boot up in your chest!
