1. As Gods Walk The Earth
Gods among men supreme in every way
In our wake you will follow
Higher beings, you bow before us
Obey our bidding
Ascend to our thrones above
Built by your blood bones
Adorned by our grisly conquests
Our rightful place
We overthrow your kings
Cast down your lords
Banish your hierarchs
Abolish your religions
As gods we walk the earth
As gods we walk the earth
Above your moral retraints
Follow no mortal codex
We are immortal ones
The ones who will lead you
Our wrath you should fear
None in your path will be spared
Torn apart, obliterated
You will find no mercy here
Revel in the carnage
Neverending bloodbath
Adversaries ripped apart
Left behind, forgotten
As gods we walk the earth
As gods we walk the earth
We overthrow your kings
Cast down your lords
Banish your hierarchs
Abolish your religions
2. Lies Of The Dead
Archaic tales handed down for centuries
Simple words loaded with dread
Bereft of comfort, compelling restrains
To be obeyed as law
Inscribed by hateful imposters
Striving to remain in control
Oppressing those that follow them
Bind them to their mandate
Lies of the Dead
Used for subjugation instead of wisdom
Foundations built in blood
The meaning no longer relevant
As long as all comply
Bloody wars fought over simple words
Civilizations laid to waste
Those that look for different paths
Exiled and forsaken
All this grief built on
The lies of the dead
All those words just
Lies of the dead
Still used to oppress
The flock kept under control
Trying to save the souls
Of the ones who are lost
Politicians their modern warlords
In their neverending war
The truth behind their lies
Those worthless souls will never be saved by those empty words
Archaic tales handed down for centuries
Simple words loaded with dread
Bereft of comfort, compelling restraints
To be obeyed as law
Inscribed by hateful imposters
Striving to remain in control
All this grief built on
The lies of the dead
All these words just
Lies of the dead
3. Enslaved By Fear
Mindless slaves controlled by their words
Blindly believing the good book
Told what to think, told what to do
Never question their dogma
Told what to think, told what to do
Never question
Fed on their propaganda
The endless spewing lies
Manipulated by fear
Of the unknown, of the hidden
Fear of darkness, of death
What is different must die
Mindless slaves controlled by their words
Blindly believing the good book
Told what to think, told what to do
Never question their doctrine
Enslaved by fear
Follow what’s written
Enslaved by fear
A hellish world
Crushing, the weight of the world
Stray from the path, the end is near
It’s time to rise against the oppression
Destroy the shackles of hate
4. No One Above
I am the way
Freedom of self
The one true path
No one above
False idols or imagined figments
Are meaningless to me
You won’t tell me what to believe
My path is not of your flock
Strength in me
No one above
I am my own master
No one higher than me
No gods dictate me
I am free
Do what I will
Is the whole of my law
I renounce
The book of lies
I have no fear
I have no guilt
I have no sin
I have no remorse
You won’t tell me what to believe
My path is not yours
Your prayers will never be heard
There is no one above
5. Heretics
[Instrumental]
6. Bloodlust
I crave your blood, rushing in your veins
The fluid of life, for ages it has sustained me
An endless trail of victims, faded from my mind
A price I’m willing to pay, for my bloodlust
Confined to the dark
From now to eternity
My only
Thoughts of my prey
Warm blood within
Rush of the kill
My awakened beast
The scent of your fear
As I hunt you down
Almost as vitalizing
As your blood
Bloodlust
My victims impaled, for all to see
Drained to death
The massacre continues, for I’m insatiable
Bloody reign of terror
Confined to the dark
From now to eternity
My awakened beast
After all these years
I stay the same
A vicious hunter
In my prime
My brutal legacy
Written in your blood
In darkness I shall remain
For all eternity
7. Writhe
I walk among you mortals
Undetected, unknown
Resplendent in my true form
Too much for you to know
Writhe
Constantly I tempt you, whisper in your ear
Unattainable goals, slightly out of reach
Make it seems so easy, the path ahead is straight
Just cross the line, a step of no return
Lies
Lust
Greed
Wrath
None of you can resist me, each of you will fall
One by one, you will heed my call
My promises are too tempting, but all are empty lies
Your tragic mortality broken, all of you are mine
Writhe in torment
In your depraved Hell
Endless self-torture
Living with yourself
Give in to my tempting
Succumb to the sweet sin
Only a question of
When you will damn yourself to hell
Constantly I tempt you, whisper in your ear
Unattainable goals, slightly out of reach
My promises too tempting, but all are empty lies
Your fragile morality lies broken, all of you are mine
Writhe in torment
In your depraved hell
Endless self-torture
Living with yourself
Writhe
Give in to my tempting
Succumb to the sweet sin
Only a question of
When you will damn yourself to hell
8. Monolith
Omnipotent colossal
Carver of worlds
Obsidian canvas
Monument of words
From nothing
Creating everything
Giver of life
Approaching death
Omniscient titan
Seeing the end
No more left
To create
The monolith cracking
Falling apart
Nothing left
There’s only death
9. Sacrificial Ritual
Climbing the steps, you prepare for the knife, your day of distinction
It’s your hour at last, on this holy day, your blood will flow
Waiting impatient, it’s your place in line, the highest form of death
The ultimate honor, appeasing the gods, as they drink your blood
Drink your blood
A holy ritual on the highest step
The sacrificial stone awaits
You’ve never felt such pain
As the high priest hold high your still beating heart
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
Lifeless bodies cast aside
Waiting for the butcher’s knife
Mutilated corpses dismembered
For cannibalistic beliefs
The victims, warrior’s feast
Utmost honor give glory
Devouring human flesh
Newfound strength with every bite
Thousand slain to honor the gods
The rivers overflowing with blood
Endless streams of willing subjects
Securing the blessings of the gods
Brutality inspiring terror
Consolidating their society
Traditions centuries old
Demand fresh offerings
Blood for the bloodgod
Climbing the steps, you prepare for the knife, your day of distinction
It’s your hour at last, on this holy day, your blood will flow
Waiting impatient, it’s your place in line, the highest form of death
The ultimate honor, appeasing the gods, as they drink your blood
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
Sacrificial ritual
