In Greek mythology, Prometheus, (Προμηθεύς in Greek, meaning "Forethinker") is a titan, the son of Iapetus and Clymene, and brother to Atlas, Epimetheus ("Afterthinker"), and Menoetius.
He was a champion for mankind, known for his witty intelligence, who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mortals. Zeus then punished him for his crime by having him bound to a rock while a great eagle ate his liver every day only to have it grow back to be eaten again the next day. His myth has been treated by a number of ancient sources, in which Prometheus is credited with – or blamed for – playing a pivotal role in the early history of mankind.
The Prometheus myth first appeared in the late 8th-century BC Greek epic poet Hesiod's Theogony (lines 507–616). He was a son of the Titan Iapetus by Clymene, one of the Oceanids. He was brother to Menoetius, Atlas, and Epimetheus. In the Theogony, Hesiod introduces Prometheus as a lowly challenger to Zeus's omniscience and omnipotence.
In the trick at Mecone, a sacrificial meal marking the "settling of accounts" between mortals and immortals, Prometheus played a trick against Zeus (545–557). He placed two sacrificial offerings before the Olympian: a selection of beef hidden inside an ox's stomach (nourishment hidden inside a displeasing exterior), and the bull's bones wrapped completely in "glistening fat" (something inedible hidden inside a pleasing exterior). Zeus chose the latter, setting a precedent for future sacrifices.

Genres: Adventure, Fantasy, Horror,This is the sound of our days
Burning the light of our nights
This is the sign of our times
From my mouth into your eyes
This is the beat of our praise
Setting the pace of our stride
This is the line that we cross
With my torch I light your way
When the time is right
We raise our heads and look
When the bridges burn
We leave our homes in flames
This is the noise of our blood
Telling the age of our nerves
This is the price of our lies
From my lips into your breath
This is the voice of our past
Turning the tide of our lives
These are the tears that we cry
With my tongue I touch your mind
When the time is right
We raise our heads and look
When the bridges burn
We leave our homes in flames
When the time is right
We raise our heads and look
When the bridges burn
