We all know that Optimus Prime is the greatest being who has ever existed. His drive and compassion shape the Universe. His sacrifices for us are common but always overcome. His knowledge is unsurpassed in both matters of war and peace. His three aspects magnificently come together to form one incredible entity. He possesses the wisdom of the ages (in his chest) which indeed did light the darkest hour. So how can you, a small fleshy human, even attempt to emulate the life of the greatest Autobot of them all? Simply by following the Commandments of Optimus Prime.
I. Freedom Is The Right Of All Sentient Beings.
Thou shalt not infringe upon the freedoms of others to satisfy your own ends, goals or desires. Thou shalt let others live out their peaceful lives without asking them if they knoweth your deity when they be trying to relax at home. Thou shalt respect the lifestyle choices of others for it shalt not be any of thy business.
II. Thou Shalt Transform And Rolleth Out.
Thou shall always be ready to change to better accommodate any situation. Thou should always be motivated and ready to take action when action be called for. Thou shalt not sit on thy ass and waste thy life.
III. Thou Shalt Get Out Of The Way [, Hot Rod].
Thou should strive not to make foolish mistakes for thy mistakes can cost others dearly. Be humble and moveth aside for those that know better and learn from thy elders so that thou might not screweth up.
IV. Evil Shalt Be Stopped, No Matter The Cost.
Evil shall triumph if good men sit back and doth do nothing. Those of ill intent to others shalt be stopped no matter the cost or consequences to thyself.
V. One Shalt Stand And One Shalt Fall.
See everything thou doth do to the end; thou shalt not backeth down like a wuss. Thou shalt put all thy efforts into thy tasks and strive until thy can strive no more. Thou shalt not make half assed efforts in thy endeavours.
VI. There Be More Than Meets Thy Eye
Judgeth not the book by its cover, speaketh not from a position of ignorance. Thou shalt possess on open mind on all things and consider all evidence before thy reaches a conclusion.
VII. Light The Darkest Hour
Always strive to do good by all other sentient beings. The darker or more dire a situation may look, the more will and resilience thy must summon to battle it and persevere. Strive always to push darkness and evil back, thy shalt never back down from thy duty to spread to spread the light which is justice and peace.
VIII. Until All Are One.
All living things shalt one day be one. Treat all life as a treasure and protect it but be use they wisdom and common sense when thy be considering risk probabilities for sometimes not all life can be saved. Treat what life you find as you would have that life treat you and thy shalt not get smacked upside the back of thy head too much.
And for glory of Optimus Prime, let
us sing the grandest of hymns set forth in his name;
You got the touch
You got the power
After all is said and done
You've never walked, you've never run,
You're a winner
You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
You're nobody's fool
You're at your best when when the goin' gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You never bend, you never break
You seem to know just what it takes
You're a fighter
It's in the blood, it's in the will
It's in the mighty hands of steel
When you're standin' your ground
And you never get hit when your back's to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you're takin' it all
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You're fightin' fire with fire
You know you got the touch
You're at your best when when the road gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
You got the touch
You got the power
