They've come to bring us gift
They've come to make us whole They've come to give us God Their gift of Heaven They've come to make us civil Their gifts as ransom Their God comes with a cost We must give up all For prayers in a foreign tongue To a foreign throne Erase our traditions Erase our way of being Erase our elder's teachings Erase, replace these ways Generations of wisdom In exchange for ransom Your God comes with a cost A cost to us all Prayers in a foreign tongue to A God unknown From demons, you will never see Prayers that will save your soul Blessed are the children We have come to save them all We came to cure disease that Has never made you ill We came to make you clean, To protect you from yourself They've come to bring us hope They've come to save our souls They've come to make us holy They've come to give us Heaven They've come to make us civil Just like them Their God comes with a cost And we must give up All of our traditions Erase our way of being Erase our elder's teachings Erase, replace these ways Generations of wisdom They have taken away Our culture has been erased Bring every child they blessed With the needle's mark Chop off every little arm Let the children bleed 02. D.E.A.D. Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Shards of broken machinery
Gears dislodged and flailing Flesh gives steel no challenge Bones cannot withstand Blades will smash resistance Chains will drive the hunting of the flesh Slick through the skin straight to the soul Leaving no breathing man alive Kill them all Knock down their walls, flatten their homes Leaving no place for the humans to hide Kill them all Burn every bridge Scorch every crop in case one survives Kill them all Burn every one Grind their bones to dust Burn every one Grind their bones to dust Mere flesh cannot withstand us We have come to wipe this planet clean To end your consumption Mere flesh cannot withstand me I've come to wipe this planet clean To clean to burn to grind Blades will smash resistance Chains will drive the hunting of the flesh 03. Garden Of Disdain Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
No God will claim this garden
Too sickening to the eyes to see this Long ignored my words of warning From the world I built, erased So it shall know no peace in my time In absence of my voice for guidance In the absence of my hand and whip Grew the absence of the knowing Unknowing Grew the absence and grew the festering A boiling abscess that Was sure to burst with failure From a distance I have observed Minding my slaves like children Absorbing your petty struggles Disgusted by your petty lives I have witnessed your sleight of hand I was betrayed by you many times I have craved to bring forth my vengeance I have yearned to dismantle this World of unfathomed treasures This garden disgraced by man Your ways despised by beasts and gods alike All gods agree your ways must end They have waited long to see this You claim to not need my guidance Yet you reach for my hand and plead Obsessed with your futile struggles You are mistaken to think I feel From a distance I have observed Minding my slaves like children Absorbing your petty strife Disgusted by your petty life All gods have left this garden These gods have left in shame Dismissed and long forgotten This world of useless being This endless festering 04. The Righteous Voice Music by Trey Azagthoth, Scott Fuller Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Kingdoms infamous for taking as they please
To appease a voice of righteousness Infidels and heretics, enemies of our light Shall be dealt with in the name of God It is the rite of our kind to silence any tongue That would try to oppose the king of our land Bring us their heads as trophies of our victories Praise us and align as soldiers of a destiny Foretold by ancient prophets Bring us new lands, these people too will praise us Praise our God or meet your own It matters not to us, we have glory either way Bow down before our king Fear is your new faith, fear is your new doctrine Be docile until we say, be ready with your life If the king needs you to die Bring us their head as trophies of our victories Praise us and align as soldiers of a destiny Foretold by ancient prophets Bring us new lands, these people too will praise us The followers of ancient ways shall be taught to follow us Or be beaten to their fate The kingdom does not accept any praise of other lands It will be treated as an act of war You exist because we allow it, so kneel to show your God It is us that you fear Prepare to learn the ways of this new kingdom Prepare to swear your soul and life to keep it Prepare to give yourself to do our bidding Prepare to sacrifice for our desire 05. Architect And Iconoclast Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
With swipe of hand release disease
Exonerate their thoughts of Gods At odds with what they see With slam of fist to flesh of earth Discharge your breath of Molten poison, scorch their lungs I am all prophecies fulfilled Yet you refuse too see this You mock my name, have you forgotten? I am the truths that were lost, Taught as myths and buried in earth The soil won't hide the warning signs My art, to bring demise My skill, it is necessity My will, exists through time It's my rite, to rid this world of life My presence means demise I relinquish kings of power My course to disassemble life To embellish while you cower I am proof that all denied, Was scripted for all to know this Thus all who closed their eyes Will pray now to have witnessed this With abandon, they have tarnished In ignorance they devour Consumed by the lust of owning all Their slavery, their bliss They are repulsed by the gifts we have given They cannot hold them in their hands These fools have felt unsettled Shall stay and watch it as it burns I am the architect It is my design to betroth this earth You called my name Have you forgotten? I am the builder of all loss I am the keeper at all cost The soil, the air, are my creations And I shall watch them burn My art, my skill, my will It's my rite, to rid this world of life My presence means demise I relinquish kings of power My course to disassemble life To embellish while you cower I am proof that all denied, Was scripted for all to know this I am the architect I am the un-existence You know my name! You have not forgotten! I am creator of this world I am the keeper of the soil The soil won't hide The warning signs I am all prophecies fulfilled Yet you refuse to see this You mock my name I have not forgotten! I am the truths that were lost, Taught as myths and buried in earth The soil, the air, are my creations 06. Paradigms Warped Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
To amend any treasons of the truth
Or of the soul We the gods of all things share witness So be it the law That any being beneath our skies shall Know our mercy when it is earned And shall know the wrath of the gods When it is deserved Now we decide These feeble yet volatile human beings have menaced Beyond what is acceptable Their yearning to self consume in misery Has made them every bit expendable Their reasoning brings questions of their Understanding, their truth is anything But logical and I suspect that the facts Will show beyond a doubt, the evidence is clear to see I share your hatred and I share in your disgust I second the motion, beyond a doubt, they are expendable to us Release all demons of the underworld, release the wrath of all our kin Unleash the demons beneath the soil, let this cleansing now begin Now come our fury upon this world Now come to bring upon them endless night Resolve this land of these succubi These humans, this burden 07. The Pillars Crumbling Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Hypocritical guidance has confused the masses
Veiling the instinctive nature of a higher cause Accumulation and consumption Evaluated by your possessions Unabated cleansing of a deeper being Dissociative dissent, liberation through ignorance Disseminate devolution, dissipation of disruption Isolation and dejection, disenchanted exhilaration Discomposed reverence, subservient Constant, constant denial of truth Constant, constant distrust Constant, constant obedience Hypocritical guidance has confused the masses Veiling the instinctive nature of a higher cause Accumulation and consumption Evaluated by your possessions Unabated cleansing of a deeper being This has spawned a new type of human Who live in fear and addiction Lead them, guide them This has spawned a new type of human Who live in fear and addiction Lead them, guide them to extinction 08. For No Master Music by Steve Tucker, Scott Fuller Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Gone is the will, gone is the time, the ways of the righteous
Again we will never see them Gone is the strength, gone is the courage, to deny these treasures Gone is the way of every king To no kings have we prayed To no kings do we bow down To no prayers do we yield our cleansing Your gods rejoice in your end Hear us sing Of man in eulogy Hear us sing Mocking the gods and their heresy Hear us sing In glory of how it soon will be Hear us sing Mourning no gods, for they will know defeat Gone is their pride, gone is their hate, gone is every witness Gone is the need to decide Gone is all life, gone is the tumour that is human being Gone is the need for their gods With no gods do we feast From no gods do we cower No prayer will yield our cleansing This fate no God would change Hear us sing Hear us sing With no gods do we feast From no gods do we cower No prayer will yield our cleansing This fate no God would change 09. Declaring New Law (Secret Hell) Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Bring before me anyone who opposes my name
Bring before me any voice that speaks in disdain of me Bring before me any force that would challenge my will Bring before me every vessel that is filled with doubt Erase them from my kingdom We have no way to feed them Burn down every home that keeps them safe at night Rape them as you wish their daughters Feed the wolves their mothers, erase them Make sure that every father sees his son die, before he bleeds Erase them and let the kingdom see it Erase them Erase them Erase them Take the gold and burn the rest Torture any fool that does not submit Erase them Have them swear devotion, then cut out their tongue Torture any fool that does not submit Make them believe in this Erase them Erase them Torture any fool that does not submit Torture any fool that does not submit Make them believe in this 10. From The Hand Of Kings Music by Steve Tucker, Scott Fuller Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Empires and nations fall
Caesars were men not gods Idols change as needed through time Generals are irrelevant without war Kings mean nothing without fools To master To feed their manic ego To win their lusted plights To follow with no caution To follow to demise Mad men are praised and worshipped Enslavers victimize Torture, always their answer To teach incessant hatred The hand of God became filled with riches for only kings The hand of kings became the will, the will of men enslaved Empires and nations fall Caesars were men not gods To feed your personal interest To feed your farewell will To die to fall and fisting To die to you was cruel The hand of God became filled with riches for only kings The hand of kings became the will, the will of men enslaved 11. The Fall Of Idols Music by Trey Azagthoth Lyrics by Steve Tucker
Our darkest days have come
Barbaric rules, self-serving Abandoned hope of gods Dismissed and long forgotten Our fate cannot be seen Prophetic fools have failed us Their visions long dispelled They've fallen, like all idols We demand a victor's feast We demand that all shall know thee We demand Destroy all statues standing Built before you reign Tear them down in your name Disregard all existence All kings before your time They shall all be erased You claim to desire peace But if the truth be seen You know us as your enemy The ones that praise your grace The fools that claim your glory Will watch the pillars fall And see your kingdom burn You called us impure heathens You mocked our culture's ways You forced disbelief upon us By way of sword and blade You ruled with hand of fury You pillaged and you raped None shall sing your praise We demand a victor's feast We demand that all shall know thee We demand They claimed you as their saviour Embraced your heinous ways You proved yourself a failure You swore to be the shelter To shield is from the storm Yet, you brought this reign upon us A shattered ego fallen Dismissed and soon forgotten Your name will soon be erased We always were your enemy And if the truth be seen We brought your end of days Praise no man as saviour Praise no man as saviour Praise no man as saviour Praise no man as saviour |
