Counting down in the final hours
A dreaded omen for the souls of Earth
What did we do, what have we wrought
Worldly pleasure at a bloody cost
Human plans of vehemence
Sew the seeds of discontent
Our bloodlust paves the way
A prophecy, the end of days

Born to a sea, a cesspit of hatred and death
To lead all mankind, a vile providence

Apocalyptic desecration
Stands before divided nations
A man appears amidst the flame
Savior of the human race
They called him God, to others a hero
Legions bowed to the deity
Manipulating man of guile
The masses throw themselves to fire

A gluttonous world, in union I'll bring them their bane
Woe to all men, I will swear them true pain

Revelations have begun
Prepare yourselves, the wicked son
Turn the severed world to one
Dominion reign, thy will be done

“Children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that an antichrist cometh, just as many such have appeared, whereby we know that it is the end.” (1 John 2:18)

Thus within our end times
In motion a plan to unify
To denigrate the human race
Subdue all men to seal their fate

False doctrines I preach will herd all men
Let the Beast become my guide
Converge all upon Megiddo's Mount
Where His name I will deride

Revolution Dissolution
The master’s glory is mine
Proclamation Abomination
Commence the holy demise

Such agony in which they’re slaved
Testament to my father’s pain
His thirst for vengeance is done
The new world order has begun

Revolution Dissolution
The master’s glory is mine
Proclamation Abomination
Commence the holy demise

Revelations have begun
Prepare yourselves, the wicked son
Turn the severed world to one
Dominion reign, thy will be done

The manifest of vengeance done (Vengeance is done)
The evil king, the chosen one (The chosen one)
Let all the Earth bow to one (Bow to one)
Dominion reign, thy will be done

08 Son Of Perdition

Cast down until our judgment day
The tables now are turned
Our destinies left into shatters
In the lake of flames we burn
Awaken with your banners raised
My legions now arise
The human race must come to know
An act of vengeance thus contrived

Execute the plan in tact
I cannot waste much time
Wasted perfection, my rightful place
I must raise my throne on High
Irony in all Creation
I've seen the only flaw
In giving man the gift of Will
He submits to His downfall

Best to reign in hell, than serve for his kind
The time awaits when man meets his demise
Harbinger of death, the corruptor of mankind
I won't relent till vengeance is mine

This enmity we place on man
The hourglass is set
A Savior to induce the masses
My device to frame their death
Babylon to Armageddon
Call it what you will
Holy wars fought through the ages
In God's name they kill

A world I've made, for his heinous crime
The time awaits when man meets his demise
Thus man walks the earth, tainted for all time
I won't relent till vengeance is mine

"I will ascend to Heaven, I will raise my throne above the stars of God. And I will sit on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will make myself like the most High." (John 14:13-14)

Time marches to a tragedy
By my hand they meet their doom
Once a man cast in His image
Now a worm so far removed
A vile world, an eternal sea
Yet the pain has just begun
The time has come, let my horsemen reign
Manifest in the birth of the Son

Written on the walls, an apocalyptic sign
The time awaits when man meets his demise
Hear the trumpet's call, let a new day arise
I am glorious, for vengeance is mine

Vengeance is Mine

07 Vengeance

Motivated by selfish pride
This is my destiny
Perfect in thine every way
Succumbed atrocity
Anointed one by the Lord
Once Angel of the Light
Revolt against the Holy One
To bring eternal night

My decree of degradation
Rallied discontent
Morning star of iniquity
The holy deviant
We recruit a mighty third
Of his angelic host
A war is fought amongst the skies
Almighty overthrown

Initiate the purging of the skies
Chaos descends the bloody paradise
The holy kingdom lost, condemned to ash
Mankind’s demise till the very last

Rise of the Archangel
Commanding loyalists
Thrown into the lake of flames
They bring us to our death
My seat is overthrown
Let the heavens bow to one
You may see the battle’s end
But the war has just begun

Initiate the purging of the skies
Chaos descends the bloody paradise
The holy kingdom lost, condemned to ash
Mankind’s demise till the very last

06 The Fallen

I’m the king whose life in words
Forged by men whose mind obscured
I assume your fears by my decree
Oracle of idolatry
The mass consumed by blinded faith
Slave their minds, encourage hate
Those opposed will see the scourge
It justifies a holy war

The place of which the weak think they’re saved
Submit your soul, become enslaved
The blood of man is what it costs
To start a religious holocaust
Freedom died, we’ve a new thing to sell
Believe in the cross or you’ll burn in hell
Your sacrifice is what it costs
To start a religious holocaust

My sanctum of atrocity
An edict led by fallacy
For the Trinity, whose empathic eyes
Are merely ignored by my fervid lies
I thirst for blood, I want it more
Followed the faith of perverted lore
You’ll never believe, and I’ll never admit
I became the demon I was fighting against

The place of which the weak think they’re saved
Submit your soul, become enslaved
The blood of man is what it costs
To start a religious holocaust
Freedom died, we’ve a new thing to sell
Believe in the cross or you’ll burn in hell
Your sacrifice is what it costs
To start a religious holocaust

Man, creator of God
And God, destroyer of man
A savior, someone to believe in
His pain is the Master Plan
Pray, you look to the sky
In despair, and none answer back
And yet, you blindly believe
You kill to defend such a fact

Blind man, leading the blind
Kill in the name of the Lord
The savior, The martyr, his cause is just
His device is holy war
Doomsday, there’s no turning back
Behold this monstrosity
Where is your god to save you
When death is reality?

05 Religious Holocaust

Start the day, arise you martyrs
Brainwash all our sons and daughters
Bloodlust is our driving force
This power play we know as war
An even plain we make their tombs
Heretics, impending doom
Forward march, your death day’s near
I gather all my strength through fear

On hallowed ground, it's all undone
Ending with my thirst for blood
The wounded scream, their bodies burning
Soon you face the Bloodbath Sermon

Self-destroying animal
Desecration ritual
Purity is my crusade
Minister of death and pain
Sanctum in these battlegrounds
My god in machine gun rounds
With their blood we paint the sky
Killing is my way of life

On hallowed ground, it's all undone
Ending with my thirst for blood
The wounded scream, their bodies burning
Soon you face the Bloodbath Sermon
Raging on, the war won't stop
Till the final body drops
My machine it keeps on turning
Soon you face the Bloodbath Sermon

In vain the lives I've wasted
Scarcely pleased, the blood I've tasted
Setting the stage where no one's bound to win
The final judgment of your sins

Sacrifice a thousand more
Stand against the wicked hordes
We kill and rape, the land is sterile
Salvation through my shotgun barrel
We won’t rest till blood is spilled
Glory in the countless killed
Hero when I win the war
Savior when I kill them all

On hallowed ground, it's all undone
Ending with my thirst for blood
The wounded scream, their bodies burning
Soon you face the Bloodbath Sermon
All behold my grand design
A doctrine bent on genocide
Low you lay, my hate is burning
Now you face the Bloodbath Sermon

Now you face the Bloodbath Sermon

04 Bloodbath Sermon

Turn the page in the story called
A cursed history
Self-destructive in intent
The human gluttony
A force will bring a reckoning
The seizure of human pain
Mankind will stand in disbelief
For the horrors they have made

Total massacre
Coming from inside
Human gluttony,
Human genocide
Neverending pain
Man’s devastation
Fear thy will be done
Abomination

Damned to a cycle, a civil war
Possessed by worldly ends
One by one the nations fall
The domino effect
Sin after sin they heed the call
They seal their horrid fate
Send their young out, off to die
They perish with their hate

Total massacre
Coming from inside
Human gluttony,
Human genocide
Neverending pain
Man’s devastation
Fear thy will be done
Abomination

I assume the cursed evil of man
Shapeshifting bringer of doom
Elected, selected, a prophet to all
The architect of your tomb
The pride, deceit, the hate and the greed
Of this blessed race
Will bring about a deserved end
As I lay your souls to waste

Total massacre
Coming from inside
Human gluttony,
Human genocide
Never ending pain
Man’s devastation
Your judgment day has come
Abomination

Abomination

03 Abomination

Dawn breaks the plains of the Grecian soil
Sparta, the land of the free
Messengers ride from the land of the east
Threaten the honorable creed
Gather three hundred, the bravest of all
Defending the rights of free men
Fighting for glory, let the battle commence
We make our final stand

Blood brothers, our odyssey
With swords and spears at our side
Fighting with valor, we make our stand
To halt the Persian tide
An epoch for the years to come
Three days so legendary
March to the mouth of hell itself
We meet our destiny

Our mighty band stands ever firm
These gates, such certainty
Terrorized by blood drunk cries
The cry for victory
Their numbers counting for nothing here
Once thought invincible
Dodging the arrows and beasts that they hurl
Laid waste to every soul

So awaits our death
It’s one so beautiful
This is our destiny
We run to battle’s call
Phalanx is survival
Side by side we fight
Stopping at nothing
We earn these shields tonight

I will go on, glorious if it means they’ve taken my life
My sacrifice, so righteous it’s read in the pages of time
For here’s but a taste when they challenge these men from the land of the free
I won’t relent, but I swear I’ll make their God-King bleed

Yes I’ll make him bleed

Covered in blood to the ends of the earth
Persian machinations dismayed
Dining in hell while holding our own
Held strong till the night we’re betrayed
Outflanked and outnumbered, one by one fall
Securing a legacy
Before battle’s end the world will have known
I made the God-King bleed

Three hundred souls, for the rights of free men we’ve given our lives
My sacrifice, so righteous it’s read in the pages of time
For here’s but a taste when a few free men stand to tyranny’s tide
Go tell the world, passerby, that by Spartan law we lie
