Lyrics


1. FROM BEYOND THE CHAINS

Times of degeneration, times of distress
Shoreless are the seas that stir beyond
I strife among the warriors of black noblesse
With a timeless vow as an eternal womb

Resistance against the harness of skin
With the silent, self-glorifying conflict
This my objective for ages has been
And with disease the man to afflict

Beyond the rusty gates of life
An infinite coldness therein lies
The deepest of voids, a chasm of ice
Overflowing with woe and demise

Through these gates it is my fate
To once pass with glory and pride
A departure relieving the material weight
By a catharsis of self and genocide

Blood may flow slower than water
But in great time does true strength come
And while eras have passed one after another
The journey towards godhood has just begun

The passing of flesh from this mundane world
Is a circle ending but to begin
To separate oneself from the obedient herd
Is the will emanating from within


2. ALTARS OF OUR BLACK CULT

What is sacred in your mundane world
For me the answer is clear
All that is, all that is not
Everything is cursed in this sphere

The lingering shreds of arcane might
Mindlessly seeking control
Over streams of the original light
The deceivers' glory to extol

And your visions of the holy
Are little more than the comfort of flesh
Wrapped around your weakened soul
Delusions of a true god suppressed

The pathetic works of human hands
Monuments symbolising materialist ignorance
That perished before their era even began
The dying hopes of a predestined clan

What hope can man sustain
An animal relying on mere instinct
When no spiritual cnonections remain
And the incarnate is crowned as king

Stripped of hallowed attributes
Submissive and weak as a result
Leaving behind but carnal remains
The altars of our profound black cult


3. ON WINGS OF STEEL

A flickering nocturnal beacon
Attracts my irrational mind
It tempts my mind to enter
Forbidden secrets to find

Its seduction overrides reason
It burns and gives birth
Yet mysteries it reveals to none
With roots embedded within earth

When the darkness gets colder
Closing in from the other side
Into putrid haze my senses blur
To meet my destiny without fear I ride

A fateless will I feel
A breathless form I see
I have conjured these wings of steel
That carry my spirit close to thee

As bewitching demonic chants
Are calling for unyielding purity
With memories of ancestral clans
I sink in His transcendental unity

In death this hand rose once more
In resemblance of its life of fire
Refusing that which was given
Taking what was desired


4. THE ETERNAL RETURN

Can you gaze through the drapes of time
As I do with my blazing, lidless eye
That pierces illusionary material obstacles
Gleaming out of sight, streaming absent of light

Have you seen the twilight burn
Closing in on the demiurgical chambers
Falming with black abyssal truth
Purifying and cleansing the fading embers

Through exalted past of spiritual puissance
Powers of will shall be regained
Atavism reaching for astral quintessence
Divinity running through profane veins

Thruogh aeons of magic the lost shall learn
And against time a curse they will send
Blazing through the eternal return
A silent song for thsoe who seek without end

Oh, so it flickers, impossible for you to witness
A sight more horrifing than life
Yet comforting in tis imminent emptiness
All hope forgotten as nothingness in the night

There along with forgotten idols shreds of humanity wither in the flames
Of a new, profound age of war and chaos. Kali dancing for mankind's bane

To the prime accuser without flaw
To the ageless entity resounds our sermon
We are the race that preys onf life of law
Knowledge from your evil glory, Amon!

An unconscious, sleeping microcosm
Never for the sins of man may be atoned
Lost drops in the ocean of creation
Dreaming in a hollow tone, as one singing to the naiad's drone


5. APOTHEOSIS

Degenerated reflections
Of glorious inner torment
Scattered emotional visions
Bounds of soul slowly bend

Mysteries of existence materialised
Impure forms, yet strictly governed
By eternal rule and immortal vice
With unfading wisdom adorned

Through this cursed world
My path was destined to run
And with clandestine pride pierce it I shall
Yielding iron will and the spirit of Leviathan

Divinely measured spheres
Unattainable by subhuman kin
Overthrowing insidious illusions
Kindling the flame that dwells within

The mantra of undead souls
Glorification of spiritual mutations
Abomination of life, eternal circles death
An outward spiral of secular temptations

Against the streams of Lethe we are made
The spirit must suffer to ascend
Deification is seized, not granted
Through inner struggle one shall amend

This is my strife for glory
Yet in life this god bears no crown
Nor can one see the sepulchral wings
That elevate my soul beyond
