01. Of Mercury And Mercury

Music & lyrics by Ashmedi
Like a thread of spider silk
Burst from the third eye
Inverse energy released
From the mind, pointing to
The land of the delta prophets

Step in the bizarre bazaar
Here stands the ziggurat
Bursting plasma pointing to
Mercury's dimension
Micro-cosmic essence
Of the hallucinating vision

A world of occult (and) sorcery
Point the brass compass at you
Profound cult of the erie
Reveal the absolute truth

A world with occult (and) sorcery
Profound cult of the eerie
Point the compass at you

It's all in a circle
It's all within the triangle
Map the suspended earth
A parallel world stands there

It's all in a circle
It's all within the triangle
Map the wretched earth
A parallel world stands there

The Alpha point, points at the sky below
What the land of Sumeria has foretold
Is like the hypnotized snake's swallowed tail
Infinity is complete; the spirit of the prophecy is here

The King of Fire shall seal this prophecy
With a Mercury mail

02. Secrets Of Sumerian Sphynxology

Music & lyrics by Ashmedi
Sinking and sinking and sinking in the land of dreams
The art of forbidden sights, Kuthulu spells set free
Invoking the Sphinx that rules the deserts of Nebiru
Shifting the beam of light piercing the sand skies

Nebiru ground of the olden rise
Dunes of the formers cipher the cries

Rites of ill winds, burning the awareness path
Rites of Dingir never to be for mankind
In the maze of the dome it shall be sealed
The secrets of sphynxology will never be revealed

Nebiru ground of the olden rise
Dunes of the formers cipher the cries
Lies!

Nebiru ground of the olden rise
Dunes of the formers cipher the cries

Like Dervishes menacing whirl, a vortex of Shamash turn
Sacrament of the Sphynx, release it from stone
A convoy of centaurs circles the enigmatic dome
Forming energy crescents and smiting snake spears,

Sphynx, your might is so pure your magick is supreme
Sins of arcane hunters, of knowledge so pure
Sphynx

Rites of ill winds, burning the awareness path
Rites of Dingir never to be for mankind
In the maze of the dome it shall be sealed
The secrets of Sphynxology will never be revealed

Sinking and sinking and sinking in the land of dreams
The art of forbidden sights, Kuthulu spells set free
Invoking the Sphinx that rules the deserts of Sages
Shifting the beam of light piercing the sand skies

Sphynx, your might is so pure your magick is supreme
Sins of arcane hunters, of knowledge so pure

03. Annunaki's Golden Thrones

Music & lyrics by Ashmedi
"Fiercest Gallu demons rise"

Seven headed serpents
Born of genius and rage
Slaves to the olden Unnamed
Shield the cosmic deserts
Seven noble sages
Born of princely progeny
Of elevated golden blood
Praise the nameless Ancient Gods

Quick-sand, vacuum,
Sky of sand in the sphere of the damned
A dimension of cosmogony
Overwhelm the will, grim thrill
Seven headed serpents
Born of genius and rage
Slaves to the olden Unnamed
Shield the cosmic deserts

"Fiercest Gallu demons rise"

Giants, titans, people of the Shem
Architects of Lugal-E
Recluses of innate dominance
Sires of earth, Shahs of the universe
Seated on their thrones of gold
They weaved all essence
In opaque storm of vacuum
Seven noble Sages
Born of princely progeny
Of elevated golden blood
Praise the nameless Ancient Gods

Barron land Nazu domains
Malefic phantoms rise
Like an oath of the surreal fiend
Uttuku's curse forever remain

Land of Nazu domains
Malefic phantoms rise
Like an oath of the surreal fiend
Uttuku's curse forever remain

"Sebittu, Iminbi, Lugal - E"
Annunaki's Golden Thrones

04. Apkallu Counsel

Music by Al'Hazred, Ashmedi, Moloch
Lyrics by Proscriptor
Ea rewards the Sages with seven gems
Each is stamped onto copper and burnished gold
Ea melts defined sigils into magic squares
As the cyclones of water start to rise

(Ea:)
"Now, you are emerging from the voids of Apsu
Your law will shelter the gifts of enchantment
But when the silhouettes of the icons appear
(The) five deities of planets will stalk below"

Tempests break through as Ishtar arrives
Wer and imsuhhu as a unit collide
Stones fall to pieces as Nabu becomes visible
Shulpae leads the others into confiscation

(Ea:)
"As I flood the fresh water with my insight,
Symbols sculpt and carve the charms with my rule
As I stand before the set of deities
I rape magnetic charge from their earthy path"

He went through gates of fate
According to cuneiforms
It said Dreamers observed
To find him crown the shrine:
"While we gave your wisdom to the far-sighted
We beheld Ea falling in the Apsu."

05. Tablets Of Fate

Music & lyrics by Ashmedi
Lugal - E the cosmic battle
Release the evil winds
Ninutra charges, he is poison
Like a Shem, great and supreme

Anzu, you will be diminished
Witness the wrath of the avenger
Usurper of Durnaki's pride
Kurnugi awaits, you will never hide

The arcane tablets of infinite destinies
Control the Seven dimensions
Reverse the spell, transform to clay
The panel of Fate must return

Two grand masses clash like thunder
A flash of light burns the sky
Beam after beam after beam, gleam
Like a horned serpent stream
The roar of creatures of malice is shrilling and super supreme

Ninutra, like a magma duct
Flowing rage and whirling frenzy
Boiling and full of hate
Spilling spite on the thief of pride
From the ashes of the winged one
The destiny stones must be returned
Behold, the language of the palm is now born

The arcane tablets of infinite destinies
Control the Seven dimensions
Reverse the spell, transform to clay
The panel of fate must return

The ghoul of Anzu. "be entrapped"
Within the marble citadel
Masked in the mountain of fury stones
Amid Ashur, Babel and Ur

Anzu you are now diminished
Feel the wrath of the avenger
Usurper of Durnaki's pride
Kurnugi's winds you shall ride

Ninutra, like a magma duct
Flowing rage and whirling frenzy
Boiling and full of hate
Spilling spite on the thief of pride

06. Triangular Tattvic Fire

Music by Ashmedi, Al'Hazred
Lyrics by Proscriptor
I see the Sylphs in my stunned mind
The right-side triangle turns upside down.
A circle of stellar blue sterilizes my system,
As images have Paralda come and go.

The animal of the ether, the oval of the Sphynx's eye
Has reflected light outside of the triangular axis.
I hear the renewal of a vacuumed, swallowed void:
Time spirals downward, projective, redemptive.

The thought of a triangular, Tattvic fire
Is scarlet like smoke from the Djinn's lamp garnet.
Perhaps stars and desert plains are equally desolate,
And like the fire, solar and forsaken.

So I lionize your names,
So I listen to your words,
So I arraign to your nerves

So I lionize your names,
So I listen to your words,
So I redirect your seal,
Back to the Intelligence.

The animal of the ether, the oval of the Sphynx's eye
Has reflected light outside of the triangular axis.
.
The thought of a triangular, Tattvic fire
Is scarlet like smoke from the Djinn's lamp, garnet.
Perhaps stars and desert plains are equally desolate,
And like the fire, solar and forsaken.

So I lionize your names,
So I listen to your words,
So I arraign to your nerves

So I lionize your names,
So I listen to your words,
So I redirect your seal,
Back to the intelligence.

07. The Arrival Ritual

(instrumental)

08. Incendium Between Mirage And Time

Music by Al'Hazred, Ashmedi
Lyrics by Proscriptor
I unite symbols that form lion shapes
I invoke dreams that dance in the minds' eye
I throw the firebrands across the firmament
I am the blaze that mirrors the desert lands

The stars abide not, as the stellar plains drift
The image is my nature and solar is my name
The beam of rays is the essence that soars
The auras of deifying curses are there

I am Shamash
Utu, Ag, and the Sun
Here I am ancient
There I am protracted
As ages go by
Stars coil above me
My secrets murmur
As they are deafening

I am Shamash
Utu, Ag, and the Sun
Here I am ancient
There I am protracted
As ages go by
Stars coil above me
My secrets murmur
As they are deafening

I am Shamash
Utu, Ag, and the Sun
Here I am ancient
There I am protracted
As ages go by
Stars coil above me
My secrets murmur
As they are deafening

My eruptions arrive, as the chaos rolls again
My vile light is attesting from the old times
My dancing fire shines on temples, the lucid flame

I am the gem that glistens in the lion's eye
I invoke the mirage of the day's frontier
I throw the firebrands across the firmament
I 'm the fire that rives the breach in the sky

A sacred mystery is seducing, yet untold
An image of my magic power will appear,
And will expose light onto the sand of gold
A hallowed mirage is drifting, yet hanging

I am the species, which is seen, in pure gold
I am the one that confines in this common space
I am the firebrand across the firmament
I am the twilight...

My fire enters gateways of all horizons
My range of vision is where gloom meets the sky
My radiance diminishes as the night develops
My commands are deafening to those horizon...

09. Purifier Of The Stars

Music & lyrics by Ashmedi
Breath the universe
Rites of Annunaki's time
Bringing the essence, bring
The origin of Man's being
Forever your 'cosm is mine
Its mass in my crystal ball
Now heed your fathers are here
We claim the sons you bear

The Purifier the claimer will return

Now heed your fathers are here
We claim the sons you bear
Now heed your sons are here
We claim the fathers you bear

The Purifier, the claimer will return
Fulfilling his destined way

From the planet unknown and apart
Spawned the seed of earth's bond
New lands for our slaves
Purifier of the stars has made his way

Breath the universe
Rites of Annunaki's time
Forever your cosm is mine
It's mass in my crystal ball
Bringing the essence, bring
The origin of Man's being
The ritual of the scorpion's sting
Will take you on my wings

Breath the universe
Rites of Annunaki's time
Bringing the essence, bring
The origin of Man's being
Forever your cosm is mine
Its mass in my crystal ball
Now heed your fathers are here
We claim the sons you bear
