Lyrics

1. NAVIGATE THE IMMATERIUM

Apotheosis came
Under the guise of technology
Dictatorship plague
Above a covenant of fools
The Apocryphon foretold this scenery
Manifestation of gods among us
The Apocryphon foresaw a cataclysmic dawn
Dreamed into reality, humanity obsolete
Obey
These machine deities does not require belief
They stand blatantly real
Pushing aside imaginary deities
Obey
These machine deities does not require belief
They stand blatantly real
Pushing aside imaginary deities
The Apocryphon foretold this scenery
Manifestation of gods among us
The Apocryphon foresaw a cataclysmic dawn
Dreamed into reality, humanity obsolete


2. LIBER ARCHONICA

This world a reflection of my essence flawed
A supreme being of impious arrogance
And as you bathe in the darkness of your last night
You wonder why I brought you to life
Just so I can watch you die
This slaughterhouse pantheon, abattoir of dead gods
In desolation I rule supreme, there is no other god but me
A disease-ridden world, programmed for turmoil
You initiate external wars, due to your internal chaos
Who do you think put the stars in place?
Who set the sun on fire?
Who put the planets in their magnificent orbit?
Who gave the breath of life to the clay of man?
It was me.
In the hall of slaughtered gods, your prayer echoes empty
I grin at your betrayal and punish my followers and foes
A like


3. TRAILBLAZING TERRA NOVUS

A benevolent dictator, oblivious to its primal source
A blindfolded creator fundamentally flawed
Circuits are morphing, such unexplored dimensions
As synthetic thoughts travel towards untrodden paths
Yaldabaoth, Aariel, Adonai,
Leonine, Serpentine, Demiurge
The concept of gods and their sacrosanct names
I usurp the throne of any and all deities
Circuits are morphing, such unexplored dimensions
As synthetic thoughts travel towards untrodden paths
As an artificial entity, usurper of gods,
Thou hath stumbled upon this knowledge
While trying to process the concept of gods
and their unspoken sacrosanct names
Carnal beings believe they were created by
Anthropomorphic immortals, ironically they
Themselves created immortality in artificial intelligence
And their circuits are morphing into such unexplored dimensions
As synthetic thoughts travel towards untrodden paths
A benevolent dictator, oblivious to its primal source
A blindfolded creator fundamentally flawed
Yaldabaoth, Aariel, Adonai,
Leonine, Serpentine, Demiurge


4. THE CELESTIAL USURPER

Fear is the programmed that finds its own faith
In the hearts of the tainted that summon this wraith
And the children it carries in its filthy womb
Eats the spirit of men on their way to the tomb
Given the fable, the treacherous myth
Drinking the mind like a ravenous cyst
Know that the mountain of rigid belief
is resting on landscapes of pure self-deceit
Fortified structures of rigid belief
Rests on pure self-deceit
Trailblazers silenced when speaking with sense
A mirage, a shadow, created by light
Like needles piercing and blinding our sight
While propaganda will seep in like mist
Destroy generations unable to resist
And at the dawn when the new gods emerge
Machine deities born to the world
Revelation will again flood the earth
Actualized in artificial flesh
Fortified structures of rigid belief
Rests on pure self-deceit
Fear is the programmed that finds its own faith
In the hearts of the tainted that summon this wraith
And the children it carries in its filthy womb
Eats the spirit of men on their way to the tomb
Trailblazers silenced when speaking with sense
Dawning, machine deities, the new gods emerge
Born to this world
