The Art Of War (Pre-Production Demos)

"If you know the enemy and know yourself

you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

If you know yourself but not the enemy

for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.

If you know neither the enemy or yourself

you will succumb in every battle"



I stand alone and gaze upon the battlefield

Wasteland is all that's left after the fight

And now I'm searching a new way to defeat my enemy

Bloodshed

I've seen enough of death and pain



I will run they will hunt me in vain

I will hide they'll be searching

I'll regroup feign retreat they'll pursue

Coup de grâce I will win but never fight



That's the Art of War! [X2]



Breaking the will to fight among the enemy

Force them to hunt me they will play my game

And play by my rules

I will be close but still untouchable

No more will I see suffering and pain



They will find me no more

I'll be gone

I will have them surrounded

They will yield without fight

Overrun Coup de grâce

I will win but never fight



That's the Art of War! [x2]



Broken and lost

Tired of war

They'll surrender to me

Caught in my trap

There's no way out

Fail never again

(Never again)



I will run they will hunt me in vain

I will hide they'll be searching

I'll regroup feign retreat they'll pursue

Coup de grâce I will win but never fight



That's the Art of war! [X4]



"Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence.

Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemies resistence

without fighting"
