Gazing at gold, the ancient crime
Rise up, fall down Cities come alive and they will die Rise up, fall down Ten thousand years are left behind Rise up, rise up tonight Given your sentence, you're handed the snakes of divine Suffer the scourge by the powers invested in night Running the course of the wolves and they're killing our kind Oh how their claws come ripping Suffering peace, the endless time Rise up, fall down Gazing at gold, the ancient crime Rise up, fall down Cities come alive and they will die Rise up, fall down Ten thousand years are left behind Rise up, rise up tonight Blacked out sky, and beliefs in pillars time Manifest death and our killers come to life Breaking this spell and end my master's life Repelled Repelled Blacked out sky, and beliefs in pillars time Manifest death and our killers come to life Breaking this spell and end my master's life Repelled Repelled Blood trickles down through histories Given your sentence, you're handed the snakes of divine Blood trickles down through histories Given your sentence, you're handed the snakes of divine Gazing at gold, the ancient crime Rise up, fall down Cities come alive and they will die 02. Frost Hammer Music & lyrics by High on Fire
Dream being thrown down aloft between from the icy sky
Careful what to seek for inside the frozen mind Permaglaze reflects this world distant to the thawed life Frost clan blows the war horn without a fear or guise Messiah of the glacian heir cold born to rise Sullen boots impact upon deep the tundra ice Glorify your greatness, sealed deal cold compromise Catch the sun to melt these forborne galactic eyes Plateau of Leng Winter in veins Hammers arise To melt through the ice Dream being thrown down aloft from the icy sky Careful what to seek for inside the frozen mind Permaglaze reflects this world distant to the thawed life Frost clan blows the war horn without a fear or guise Messiah of the glacian heir cold born to rise Sullen boots impact upon deep the tundra ice Glorify your greatness, sealed deal cold compromise Catch the sun to melt these forborne galactic eyes Plateau of Leng Winter in veins Hammers arise To melt through the ice Sail the seas of endless night Despotic warlord casts his blight Sons of the north abide Frost child of abhorrent line Feed the serpent, drink the wine Granite heart, unrepentant Frost hammer Frost hammer Frost hammer Frost hammer Plateau of Leng Winter in veins Hammers arise To melt through the ice Frost hammer 03. Bastard Samurai Music & lyrics by High on Fire
Count my fingers ten
Dressed to kill and think again Count my fingers nine Do the math your sacrifice Son of a bitch should bleed awhile Fighting under style Sleeping under death awhile Gladiators ring Sharpening my blade to sting Son of a bitch your fate I'll bring Profit melee are all mesmerized All betray the bastard samurai Profit melee on this killing floor All betray the bastard samurai Bastard samurai Bastard samurai The killer I've become Tattoo heart yakuza's thumb Killing men aside Severed heads abide Son of a bitch should bleed awhile Bastard samurai Bastard samurai Count my fingers ten Dressed to kill and think again Count my fingers nine 04. Ghost Neck Music & lyrics by High on Fire
Feeding the needs of a desperate survival
Criminally active, not by choice Overdosing on the mutual garbage Skeleton the end unfolds Empty raptured withered human Cloaked dejection your demise Shackled laid upon this dead prisoner Screaming the waste, a deadly voice Choke conjection and confusion Surprised you're standing on your feet Diabolic accusations Pharisees are not to teach Buy contempt and your conviction Crushing others with disease Horns are showing through the halo Heroin is such a feast Morning fever speaking in a vice Dead deceiver Sinking in the ice Madman's sorrow I've seen things You're nothing Believe me Speaking in a voice Morning fever Sinking in the ice I've seen things You're nothing Believe me Running the circus like a leper Licking your wounds, an injured hound Fucked up, doomed and desecrated Reside six feet underground Mauled and incapacitated Lame and dumb are at your feet Never mind the true conception Madman's sorrow is what you eat Feeding the needs of a desperate survival Criminally active, not by choice Overdosing on the mutual garbage Skeleton the end unfolds Feeding the needs of a desperate survival Criminally active, not by choice Overdosing on the mutual garbage 05. Fire, Flood & Plague Music & lyrics by High on Fire
The sanctioned annihilation
Death tax to the third world equation The movement of the masses Exodus of a populous Breaking the sealed nightmare Fire, flood, plague have come here Mouth of the sword delivers Spine, tendons, shakes and shivers A light of basking lament Father of manifestations Mother of all creation Gives doom to generations Its bastard abomination Humans with sickly faces The soulless contradiction A makeshift apparition Lying in a pool of distance Not knowing where the truth is Standing in a graves museum Lie down, and sleep this victim A light of basking lament Father of manifestations Mother of all creation Gives doom to generations The fire hail raining The storms torment destroying Now come the angels threshing Welcome to world extinction We have been gathered here to Die in this blackened nightmare The psalm that separates us Onto a pain in death The place of Armageddon Condemned and cursed the countdown The terror of war and famine The end of all we know is here The sanctioned annihilation Death tax to the third world equation The movement of the masses Exodus of a populous Breaking the sealed nightmare Fire, flood, plague have come here Mouth of the sword delivers Spine, tendons, shakes and shivers A light of basking lament Father of manifestations Mother of all creation Gives doom to generations The sanctioned annihilation Death tax to the third world equation The movement of the masses 06. How Dark We Pray Music & lyrics by High on Fire
Serpent came to Eve from Tiamat
Immortality was known by man Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Spirit assassin dressed in black before your shrine A woman's coffin sending shivers up my spine Nailed are hands upon the cross so intertwined A saintly mother sacrificed before your hive They drink the life They eat of flesh Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray The brain washed ghost of thought endless lies have come to bind Four thousand years of mystery surrounding the signs The Children scream aloud when pain and guilt align The failing mass of contradiction in their finds They drink the life They eat of flesh Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Shadows on the day of philstia All will have to seek of Visigoth The Serpent came to Even with a message from Tiamat Death and immortality was known to man Three had become four and five Lilith had taken to conception and was cursed to unearth where demons and man did not dwell together Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Oh, how dark we pray Serpent came to Eve from Tiamat Immortality was known by man 07. Holy Flames Of The Fire Spitter Music & lyrics by High on Fire
Deathly manner in the army to fight
Holy flames that have once come alive We embrace tonight Acrid sword, sharp as my life Divine Light the beacon through the embers of time I've been betrayed, but now cross my line Reborn to thrive Cut 'em down, storming the hive Divine Fire Spitter Fire Spitter Power of the old ways shrined Arise the spirit of the war god's kind Fire baptized line At your throat, accursed line Fire Spitter Fire Spitter Deathly manner in the army to fight Holy flames that have once come alive We embrace tonight |
