1. IN SEARCH OF IMMORTALITY

How can I ever transcend in life
And make my name survive?
Dispute entangled in our eyes

Those who came after the gods
Keep trying to win this
Battle against time

Let your brush
Spill over the veil
In black, in red
The stroke of perpetuity

Place your heart above the echoes of the sages
Under the silver star
Your message can even be stronger than time
Write your words and live forever

Some pass away as others stay
Death’s an expected fate
To conquer eternity’s all we’ve searched

Forgotten faces, voices gone
No one can see now
Their monumental efforts

Their fatuous actions
Leave them blind

Silence surrounds
Their wealthy night

Tombstones might be tough
But the sand can cover up
Your attempts to
Reach the afterlife

Take the chance to draw the world with your hands
It will be your heritage
Leave your mark on this path and go far beyond
To the limits of the immortal


2. MUMMIFY ME!

Catching me when I was asleep
I thought that you could guide my walk
You prowl in every darkest dream
Just wearing your jackal's mask

I am the rising sun
And you, a shooting star
Crossing in the sky
You will disappear with the night

Clean my body now
Remove all that’s inside
Disguise me as your god
Don’t forget my heart

Drown it down in salt
Leave me in the dark
Just enough to make
Our story survive

Seeking what you can’t have
Trying to reach the green light

You play me as you want
Please take me or let me go

Use people as you wish
‘Cause everyone is worthless

You are the worst thing
I’ve ever done to me

Words carried off by bandages
Twined around me again and again
Tricks and lies stuck as amulets
This ritual has come to an end

Gods have placed us together between the feather of Ma’at
I’ll be the tried one and you’ll never stop devouring hearts

Mummify Me!


3. BIRD IN A CAGE

I feel so lonely
Scared by my liminal state
Cannot stand another loss
Sickness invades me

It drags me towards death
In this day of pain

It casts me on fire
As to burn me

Life is a passage
Where some trees fall
Lies roam the earth and end not

Sweet is the West, my new home
Greatly welcome death
Here I come

May Thoth attend me
Khonsu defend me
May Re hear now my call:
Take away my affliction

You think you’re down
I’d never leave a man out of his house
Giving up is the true defeat
Stand up, take courage

Through your eyes you’re gone
You won’t see the sun

But your name prevails
So don’t run away

You should only grieve for the ones
Who saw his face before they were alive


4. AN EPIC JOURNEY TO YAM

I have come here from my city
Descended from my nome,
I have built a house, I set up its doors
The king praised me, I’m his beloved

Who sets
The terror of
Horus among
Others?

Harkhuf! Exploring regions
Harkhuf! Facing the demons
Harkhuf! Defeating legions
Harkhuf! Revered now

As for any man
Who interferes in my peace
Shall be crushed

I was one who spoke wisely
Whose words were always kind
Never wronged against any man for I
Wished to stand well with the great god

Who brings
The treasures
From all lands
To his lord?

I'm an excellent spirit
A ritual priest
Whose mouth knows it’s speech

Truly you know how to do what your lord wants
Achieving all his desires and commands
My Majesty sent you to exotic lands
You opened the way to an unexplored Yam

Forget all the quests you have lived
He has chosen his gift:
A Dancing Pygmy!


5. SANEHAT

Let me tell you the story of a man
The most loyal guard
The Queen regarded him with trust
The greatest gift of all

Sad news reached his ears one day
The sun had left the earth
Strange things surrounded the king's death
Suspicions everywhere

There was a voice he heard
Lies and no one knew the truth

Soon, he would have to leave his land
And go into hiding
Far from his beloved country he’ll be
And always
Miss everything that he had to leave behind
And hope someday
He’ll be able to go back to home again

In the desert he was almost dead
He thought it was the end
But that was not to be his fate
The Bedouins passed his way

Their leader knew his name and fame
Amongst them he would stay
And soon he proved his worth to all
A great one among them

As he is older he wins a fight
Killing the giant it makes him a legend now

He remembers how he had to leave his home
And go into hiding
Far from his beloved country he’s been
But always
Miss everything that he had to leave behind
And finally now
He’s able to go back to Egypt again


6. HORUS & SETH

Long after Osiris’ death
There was to be a trial
The Enead had to chose king
Who will wear the crown?

Seth and Horus would contend
For many years on end
Uncle and son were their claims
Who is the rightful heir?

The gods can't chose
Who will be leading them

They needed to ask advice
To help them make a choice
They wrote a letter to the one
Who would make a choice?

She has at last replied
Horus was the one
Seth was angry and wanted war
He will fight for the throne

Universal forces
Powers will collide
Darkness and light will meet up
In their never ending dance

One is the storm and chaos
The other rightness and life
Forces will now measure
Between what is wrong and right

Who will be the one to win?
Who will be the one to rule?
Who is going to hear our prayers?
Who will guide us in this earth?

Isis wants her son
To be in the throne
So she will go on again
And attempt to speak to Seth

But her plan can't prevent
The battles that will lay ahead
The gods have yet to meet again

I’ll never leave you alone
I’m the riot, the uncontrolled force
Your rival in this everlasting bitter row
We’ll never stop

Horus is the winner of this epic fight
With the crown upon his head he rules above us all

May this be the start of a brand new age
And his light shine down on us and will never
leave again


7. THE SHIPWRECKED SAILOR

Listen to me h3ty, as I speak
Finally we’ve reached home
Our crew is safe, the prow rope thrown
Our hearts are grateful

Hold your tongue
I don’t want to hear your voice

Smsw recounts, free from big talks
We reached the end of the world
And now we’re back, you may reply
Your words can save you from your fall

Once upon a time I was a sailor trapped in a storm
Lost in time, the boat sank, guided by the sea
To a sacred land

Listen to me h3ty, as I speak
I went to a mysterious sea
A gale came up, no one remained
I embraced the shadows

Smsw recounts, free from big talks
I spent three days completely alone
I made an offering to the gods
I heard the thunder

Fear not, fear not, young man!
Do not turn pale for you have come to me
Once it happens that you have left this place
you will never see this island again


8. RUSTY NAIL

Sing and dance for my cold heart
I will drink another jug
I am weeping all alone tonight
With these wines and rums behind

I only wanted to fulfill his wishes
In order to be a good priest
I have gone across the spookiest regions
I will do everything he needs

Birds go down to Egypt a second time
And I just can’t help screwing it up

Give me some advice
Mark the thread with your brush
I won’t listen to any fucking word that you say
I’m a Rusty Nail!

Is not like I’ve run away
With a ship of other men
My old crew stole the things I had
I’ve almost end up with the sharks

Everyone wants to punch me in the face
For simply being myself
They don’t understand I’m a human messenger
I’ll get the wood for Amon-Re

A fight between two enemies
Which once were unified
The bee is trying to take down
The sedge under our eyes

Weak like never before
Lions forge ahead
He made thunder in the sky
When he gave life to Seth

I would never say
Our power is a dirty lie
We take refuge in our idyllic ancient ways
Like a Rusty Nail!


9. WALTZ OF THE THREE FATES

(Instrumental)


10. THE DOOMED PRINCE

Long time ago
There was a king
He wished for a son
So he begged the gods

Seven ladies appear at birth
Foretelling the fate of the boy
“He’ll grow up strong but will be killed
by crocodile, snake or a dog”

I’m committed to fate
You just can’t escape death
Overcoming the dusk
I will act with hope in my heart

As the road gets harder
And light begins to fade
I won’t forget my horizon
I’ll defeat my dreads

He grew in a palace
Away from mankind
His father was scared
But son was prepared

Embracing his destiny, he found a new friend
which could be a fatal colleague
Asking permission, he looks for his mission
To travel and learn far away

He heard about a chief’s daughter
Confined in an unreachable tower
She would be given in marriage
To the one who could surpass this barrier

They thought his chances were now over
Disguised as a fugitive with an evil mother
He climbed to her window
Marrying the princess, chief felt soured

Our prince stayed together
with his faithful pet
His wife will strike down
a snake under his bed

Two fortunes eluded but one’s not concluded
It’s hidden inside of the lake
He’s getting closer to reptile’s exposure
Will we hear about him again?
