The lyrics tell the story of a treasure-hunter who seeks a legendary hoard of riches sealed deep within an Egyptian Pyramid. The Pharoah - whose tomb the protagonist plunders - was renowned as a cruel and greedy ruler, who revelled in hedonistic excess at the expense of his subjects, many of whom instead died of starvation under his selfish and wasteful rule. The Pharoah's dying wish was diabolical and born of self-interest; to bury all his material wealth with him and take it to the after-life.

As the treasure-hunter advances through the cleverly constructed tomb, he enters a chamber of immeasurable wealth. But the Pharaoh, with his evil guile, designed a room to trap those who enter with the aim of stealing his wealth. The treasure hunter perishes, and one thousand years pass.

Nature intervenes, with an earthquake of gigantic magnitude completely decimating the Pharaoh's pyramid. With this event, the riches hidden within spill out into the Nile River. Although the Pharoah thought his wealth would be preserved with him for eternity, nature is the true victor. It is Mother Earth which reclaims its elements, which were mined and transformed by human efforts into fleeting hedonistic objects and displays of opulence.
lyrics
LYRICS:
Sealed with your sins
Gold kept within
Steal from your kin
Starved with a grin
Traps are all around
Challenge to be found

Come to plunder
How do I enter these halls
Riddles ensue, match up the symbols to get through
Doors open wide, where the Pharaoh's wealth cannot hide
As I enter, the door closes, I'm sealed inside
Mortar and stone, locked inside this cage filled with gold
Gasping for breath, passing Osiris in death

The Pharaoh has his vengeance
Takes post-mortem life
Through his final designs the flies are caught in a web
Petrified, vilified, hidden deep inside
No one will take what is mine
Mummified, cryptified, his immortal prison
Entombed, embalmed, with no way out
His dying wishes filled with avaricious greed
His soul will never sail through the field of reeds

A time many years from now
The golden tomb is found
The Pyramids are downed
With a thunderous sound
The Nile rushes in
The corpses turn and grin
Their bones return to dust
The hoard is turned to rust
