1. ESCAPING THE BLACK (INTRO)

(Instrumental)


2. MELTING FLESH AND SULFUROUS AIR

Listen now my brother
In the arms of God
Life is a process of learning
In which you have much time
Well within your youth
Lust has plagued your soul
Tempted by the succubi
A quest for thrill and power
The motive of the new generation
I pray that all the wicked
Are cleansed by the holy
I am as imperfect as you
My soul has been tainted by hate and lust
I hope and strive for change
I hope to avoid the flames
For it is I as a human who makes that choice
Through the free will the Almighty gave me
To avoid that eternal torment
Within a realm most torturous
I am grateful now that I still live
Hear where God will listen
Where he has a hand in my life
Through the presence of Christ there is always hope
I still have the opportunity
I can still be washed clean
The chains embedded in me from the depths of hell
Can be broken one by one
My flesh it wages war
Against my soul

Seeking that which perverts
Denying that which will save me
I hope to never taste the sulfurous air
In the domain which we call hell
For the first hour in which I breathe it
Will be the first of infinite to come

The choices I now make
Determine God or his absence
If a life devoid of him
Is what I choose
Then I shall be subject
To eternal absence
Of the being who is
Everything good


3. ADULTERER

Searching
These days it seems to last forever
Betrayal after betrayal
God seems to slowly withdraw
But his presence is still here
As the end times approach
Longing for a true love
In a progressive culture of swingers

Oh how pathetic you are
That your genital obsessions
You experience are so worth
Betraying good people
Betraying a loving partner
How could you damage the trust
Of a good person?

Pathetic adulterer
When will you learn?
All you spread is hate
In hell you may burn
Pathetic adulterer
You're begging for death
Drowning in sin
Til no heart is left

You say that you're a Christian
Well then live by it
You say that you're a Christian
Well then live by it
You say that you're a Christian
Well then live by it
You say that you're a Christian
Well then live by it

Don't preach your harlot philosophy
For it is far from heavenly
Deriving pleasure from your sin
So much evil deep within


4. THE BURNING I. ABANDONMENT

(Instrumental)


5. FALLING IN LUST

How sad it is to me
The false ideas of love
That plague the minds of most
In these Godless days

Living lives of Godlessness
Slaves to media
Searching for love in the wrong places
A ravenous lust for fornication

True love is hard to find
When everyone seeks lust
Cravings of the flesh
Drown the longings of the soul

Traditional values
Stomped into the mud
Hookup culture
On the rise
The people in
Music and TV
Turn your hearts
Away from God

I miss the days of romance films
Decades ago
When Hollywood glorified love
And shared it with its audience
Before the days Satan took it
As films become more like porn
Day by day they're dirtier
Day by day more wretched

Every member of the youth wants to live
Like wild and reckless hip hop stars
New wave entertainment breeding sin
This is how the world will end


6. RISING IN LOVE

Surrounded by dark forces
Hell has had its grip on me for so long
The energy engulfs me still
I long for the love
I wish I could mourn
It seems I can no longer cry
I cry out for you
The only connection to greater good

I feel like I've known you for a lifetime
And these thoughts may be a distraction
But I never want you to leave my mind
For you're on it with every action
That I carry out in these painful days
For I sit lonesome without you near
As I strife daily so far away
I long for the day you are here

Lonely and in strife
I lived with little love
Worse than all, the Godlessness
Denying the Father above
The spite grew by the day
Self-hatred and misogyny
Eating my soul away
Hoping love would rescue me

Now I have a gift
A gift to battle for
Thanking God daily
For opening these doors
Giving me his love
And granting me hers
A gift I can't bear to lose
My beautiful lover

To escape my pit of hate
And leave it far behind
That is my ultimate goal
Love entering my mind
I never knew what love is
Now I have a clue
For love is purely God
A loving God gave me you

I praise His name so high above
In lonesome sorrows I no longer drown
I can't help think that I'm rising in love
So baby please don't knock me down
I praise his name so high above
For the angel that he sent me
I can't help think that I'm rising in love
Please don't take her away from me

Oh and how it pains me to think
There are those in this world
That would betray for lust
A lust so meaningless
And make such a wonderful woman
Feel so unworthy
Of the love that she of all
Truly deserves


7. HIGH-FREQUENCY MALIGNANCY

The demand for technological advancement grows
The younger generations voraciously demand
Higher speeds and greater qualities
For their brainwashing handheld screens
The towers evolve
By the doings of greedy corporations
Seeking to please the masses for wealth
Their offers are significant

To allow ignorant users to scroll their media drama
At somewhat noticeable faster speeds
What are the costs?

Wavelengths rip through
At frequencies dwarfing
That of the previous generation
Of data speeds
These wavelengths will rip through the air
With rates increasingly harmful

Leaving innards tumorous
And the unborn harmed for life

The government is not our friend
An oppressor that seeks control
It will kill and it will maim
To benefit its evil reign

Could this be more than technological demand?
Population control in disguise

Violent waves
Broadcasted
From every apartment
From every vehicle
Amplified
From towering sources
Ripping up the cells
Deformities and cancers

The masses are like sheep
To an evil shepherd
For they will be blind
Until it is too late


8. PRIDE IN SODOMY

This is what the world has come to
Seeing morality as an oppressor
Parading in the streets and corrupting the masses
Corrupting the children still developing

Public festivals of indecency
Accept it or be attacked and labeled with hatred

How can you be what's good for us
As you expose yourself before small children?
Corrupting the youth into advocates of filthiness
Enslaved in their lust and promoting that which doesn't work

Now nations alter their laws
To damage the family unit
In favor of the sins of Sodom
In favor of declining morality

Call me a hater of people like you
It's simply another sin
Through my moral criticism
You will accuse me of hatred within

What you do is not worth pride
Justifying the evil inside


9. THE BURNING II. IN ONLY SIN

(Instrumental)


10. DEPRAVED

Bleeding
Dying is love
Dying is romance
Temptation winning
Striving
Is my heart
For a heart more pure
Than that which is average
Turning
Away from God
More and more
By the day
Burning
The fires of hell
Feeding on the souls
Of the self-condemned

Depraved, evil
Raised by Satan
Corrupted by porn
Depraved, sinister
Led by temptation
Ignoring God
Depraved, filthy
No more respect
For fellow man
Depraved, disgusting
Enacting betrayals
For lustful desires

Innocence broken
How could you?
How someone could betray s heart of gold
For meaningless sex baffles me

Does true love exist anymore?
Or does everyone just seek lust
Feeding Satan with their sin
As they take his bait of temptation

I can't comprehend that kinks have become a lifestyle
As purity becomes an insult
I watch the masses turn their hearts and souls
Away from God
And now I wonder how much longer
Til the end of days
And the return of the Messiah
Since most of the world has become depraved
Oh Jesus Christ I praise your name


11. MY HEAVEN ON EARTH

(Instrumental)


12. AN ANGEL MISPLACED

Radiating more beauty than a classic work of art
In a world of wickedness your presence is a gift
Perhaps I've been rewarded with someone like you
Perhaps God himself gave me someone like you

Not wicked and fallen
But definitely misplaced
In a population dying in their wickedness
You shine so bright
The betrayal has been remorseless
To both you and I
It truly must be a blessing
To find somebody like you

But in my darkness of the past
I nearly pushed you away
Oh how foolish I must have been then
To decline what I longed for
A love so powerful
With your beautiful being that the almighty has led me to

Shining like a gift given from heaven

I long thought that love has died
I think you proved me wrong
I thought true love was just a lie
And I've searched for it so long
The masses may have lost their hearts
But not you and I
This world won't tear us apart
Our love shall never die

Sweeter than a sea of honey
Your existence baffles me
Love is not dead
Morals aren't dead
Like an angel to me
Walking this cold Earth
I praise God for what he gave me
Maybe this was meant to be

Why are you here?
In this wicked world
I hope he grants me this life with you
As long as I live you won't be alone


13. THE BURNING III. DEATH OF HOPE

(Instrumental)


14. ESCAPING THE BLACK

Why does my sin oppress me
Why do I give in
Cleanse my soul Lord Jesus Christ
Cleanse my soul of sin
Caught in it's wretched web
Which the devil has cast
Clawing and ripping
Your light will save me at last

Let me be one of the few
Let me be saved by you

Throw away my lust and hate
To let me into Heaven's gates

In your presence
I will bow
Turned from the evil
Of the world around

Escaping the black
Death to my sin
Pushing back
The evil within
Escaping the black
Destroy my hate
Take me with you
Before it's too late


15. SINDUSTRY

The music influences the views
And the lifestyles of generations
I will not conform, nor will I support
These fake human idols who advocate evil

I don't care about your stacks
Of hundred dollar bills
Or the drugs that you indulge in
With your dope-head concubines
I reject your message
That my generation embraces
Your riches please you now
You will crave that drop of water

Spewing your villainy
Through your simplistic freestyles
Laid across tracks
Of constantly repeating hooks
Injecting themselves into the minds
Of a corrupted and distracted youth
Who now aim to live the same lifestyles
As wicked people like you

I don't care about your stacks
Of hundred dollar bills
Or the drugs that you indulge in
With your dope-head concubines
I reject your message
That my generation embraces
I refuse the temptations you promote
And I refuse eternal fire

Is it all worth it?
Whether you believe the truth
Or whether you reject it
Lust and greed control you
You indulge in fame
In highs and sexual euphoria
Sharing your lifestyle with the children
Through our evil media

Jesus weeps in heaven
As masses are condemned
Jesus weeps in heaven
As his children choose to burn
Jesus weeps in heaven
As blasphemy is spread
Jesus weeps in heaven
As values become dead


16. THE PASSION

Killed by his own creation
That which he breathed life into, Now taking his

Mocked, flogged, whipped, humiliated
Head bows, spirit departed from body
Separated from the Father
3 days for us, an eternity for thee

Victory over death by his own
Very nature of this earth trampled

Son of Man's passion lain out before us
Calling us into a covenant
The Love of Eternity
Who embraced us who are but dust
The mercy without end
Came to save fallen men

A fallen world redeemed
By Christ and his Cross

Jesus Son of God
Remember us When your kingdom comes


17. THE BURNING IV. COMPLETELY GODLESS

(Instrumental)
