Lead Me to the Threshold
04:02
|

Sickened is the follower, a brainless perished cell
Turned into a conqueror and a murderer as well
Threatened are the atheists who are living their own lives
Keelhauled by their masters, throat cut by their knives
I, have no god to fear
And I, claim all that’s severe
And I, need no gun to wield
Because I’ll have your lies revealed
Damned is the sodomist, hell bound eternally
To prove that their god exist, they’re hanged for all to see
Cursed is the follower and thrown before the dogs
Barking for their masters, blinded by the fog
I, have no god to fear
And I, claim all that’s severe
And I, need no gun to wield
Because I’ll have your lies revealed
I’ll lead you to the threshold, enter my domain
I’ll lead you to this vessel, one made of bodies slain
I, have no god to fear
And I, claim all that’s severe
And I, need no gun to wield
Because I’ll have your lies revealed
I’ll lead you to the threshold, enter my domain
I’ll lead you to this vessel, one made of bodies slain
I’ll lead you to the threshold, enter my domain
I’ll lead you to this vessel, one made of bodies slain
I’ll lead you to the threshold, enter my domain
I’ll lead you to this vessel, one made of bodies slain

Atlas
04:44
|
|||
He has walked the path of the conqueror
He has crushed the dreams of many
But he came to realize that the path of a savior satisfied equally
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
For the very first time in his life he gained someone’s trust and gave some back in return
I’ll give my life for you, lay all your pain upon me
For I am nothing but a mule, I’ll carry your burdens
I’ll give my life for you, lay all your pain upon me
For I am nothing but a mule, my name is Atlas
Atlas stands, carries the world, carries your pain on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, carries your pain forever
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
But he was betrayed by the very man he thought he was a friend
He gave his life for you, laid all your pain upon him
For he was nothing but a mule, carries the world forever
He gave his life for you, laid all your pain upon him
For he was nothing but a mule
Atlas stands, carries the world, carries your pain on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, carries your pain forever
Atlas burns, carried the world, carried your lies on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, hear him scream forever:
A curse for all the “friends” that let me down
A curse for all the “friends” that let me drown
A curse for all the men that let me down
A curse for all the men that let me drown
Let me down!
Atlas!
At last!
He has walked the path of the conqueror, he has crushed the dreams of many
But he came to realize that the path of a savior satisfied equally
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
But he was betrayed by the very man he thought he was a friend

Revelation
04:53
|

Infected minds through indoctrination accept forthcoming lies
Undo yourself of consternation release yourself from the swarm
Fear has taught you “accept divinity”, a sole supreme monarch
Who’ll disciplines opinions and promises eternal life
They don’t want you to think
Don’t want you to know of the truth
Under the filthy cloak of religion a great story forsooth
Mind the man behind the curtains for their part to play
Construction of a new kingdom come
The new world order is on its way
They will have control of all the media that you’ll absorb
Indoctrination of all that is left from your subconscious mind
It’s God’s kingdom come
The end of the world as we know it now
From false prophecies or dead histories
And the signs right in front of your eyes
Will we be so blind, will we stand and fight or at least die trying
Will you have our back, like we’ll have yours too, stand up and die fighting
War!
Accept the indisputable, disregard all that you know, accept the only provable truth.
Stop wasting all your life by praying to the prime lies, it’s time to set yourself free
Uh!
Deny them now!
It’s right in front of your eyes! It’s right in front of your eyes!
Have you ever seen so many liars in your life?

Rebirth

Why do the fearless fear the fuming winds of blackened seas
Why do the brave die alone, by my hands?
Why are the courageous, defeated by us cowards how, can anyone, explain this living hell
Open your eyes and see that there is more to life than suffering
Why am I all alone, rejecting god, spreading the truth
Why are all these slaves not freed, by my hands?
Why are there deserters among our race, among our kin
can anyone, ex-plain insanity
Open your eyes and see that there is more to life than misery
Let go of the lies and see the truth unveiled before you
Chaos. Arise. Rebirth.
Turmoil. Ascend. Return.
Why do the fearless fear, the fuming winds of blackened seas
Why do the strong disappear in the dark?
In the dark
Where we cannot see your lies
In the dark
Where we can fear the beast
Another lie exposed
Another chance to slit
Another masters throat
Until the world is free

Burn down the shrine
Forget about divine protection
Tear off the cross
Punishment for hunting me down
Drink the blood lie wine
A falsely promised eternity
Deny the maker’s hand
His lie will lead you into nothingness
I am blasphemy - forsaken his castle
I am profanity - I curse his name
I am sacrilege - to take back what’s mine
A lie, the answer
To everything you want to believe
This God you love but still must fear
Thou shall not lie
Abandon now your golden castle
And take down that crown
Nothing else but weak equality
Accept my words for true
His lie will lead you into nothingness
God wants! God Commands! God Proclaims!
God wants! God Commands!
I've made the stars align in the shadow of the sun to send a sign to your God, a pagan god, you've been worshipping all along
I am blasphemy - forsaken his castle
I am profanity - I curse his name
I am sacrilege - to take back what’s mine
A lie, the answer
Burn down the shrine
Forget about divine protection
Tear off the cross
My revenge for holding me back
Drink the blood lie wine
A falsely promised eternity
Cut off the maker’s hand
Punishment for hunting me down
Hunting me down

Underneath the golden sky
Inferno breaths upon thy necks
Last wish denied for those who’ve died
Accept thy faith, thou won’t come back
You’re like the desert sand
I tried to close my hand but I failed
Tried to sweep it all together mold a new you
Gone, taken by the wind to a place I was denied from.
Heaven, or was it hell, it’s all the same because the lie it stays the same
All I know is that I need you and want to find you once again and never let you go
Why did I agree to let you go
You are the one, the only one so shame on me, can I take it back? My soul feels so black!
I tried, tried to break me
I tried, tried to break me
Failed, failed to break me
But did achieve, to take you from me
I need someone to believe in me
I found someone that believed in me
I deny all who believe in me
Too many voices inside of me
But all and all life goes on so I must get my shit together become stronger than I've ever been before
So fuck you, I hate you, hate you for your absence, no come back to me I made a mistake to leave you behind
thinking 'bout your life, about the things you’ve lost
I need you to come back to me, need you to come back to me
Stay for good this time, stay for good this time
NOW
Underneath the golden sky
Inferno breaths upon thy necks
Last wish denied for those who’ve died
Accept thy faith, thou won’t come back
Lost it all
I failed, failed to break me
Forgotten past
Without a future
Empty life
Empty future

I came to punish all of those who wander in the half moon sky and I’ll
Set them free to meet the beast by severing their head from neck
I came to hunt the savior slayers preaching lies and sodomy I’ll
Raise the cross and nail them to it dry them out crows feast their flesh
I’ll take, away, your pride, to set you free
Away from your pride
For god and country wearing crosses blood stained cloaks and metal armor
Heaven sent to slay your brothers to free them from the devil’s grasp
My brothers counting 6666 raping torturing to set you strait
I’ll divide and conquer the love for Christ won’t set you free
Take this cross from me and I will wonder where I am
For god and country wearing crosses blood stained cloaks and metal armor
Heaven sent to slay your brothers to free them from the devil’s grasp
My brothers counting 6666 raping torturing to set you strait
I’ll divide and conquer the love for Christ won’t set you free
Legion! Martyrs!
I’ll take, away, your pride, to set you free
Away from your pride
I came to punish all of those who wander in the half moon sky and I’ll
Set them free to meet the beast by severing their head from neck
I came to hunt the savior slayers preaching lies and sodomy I’ll
Raise the cross and nail them to it dry them out crows feast their flesh
Take this cross from me and I will wonder where I am

Leviticus
04:12
|

Your lord has plans for us all and it is death, fear and pain
When thin air became your god it took away your freedom
Ignorance is the key to slavery and propaganda a way to control
When defiance is no longer an option, I can offer you mine
You’ve got to wake the fuck up and forget all that you know
You’ve got to open your eyes and see
Down below the truth is refreshing and the pain and the hate are real
Anger a fuel for those who were burned, marked for the rest of their lives
Defeat and glory I know them both well but do you know the difference
Say your prayers as much as you want but the truth reveals that you will not be heard
You’ve got to wake the fuck up and forget all that you know
You’ve got to open your eyes and see
Serve, offer your life
Reject all you know, take it all in, be blessed by the lord
Believe what we say, confess all your sins,
resist the temptation, get a reward
Unless you repent, be born again,
Swear to the father, do as you’re told
You’ll burn in hell, suffer by fire
In chains eternal, grieving forever
Be blessed by the lord
Drink of his blood, eat his flesh.
Drink the goat’s blood, we’ll divide among three
A cup for the priest and one is for me
Always be pure, death to the sinner
Don’t make atonement never forgiven
Deny, the urge to think
Bow to the statue, be scared of the cross
You fail in life, forever benighted
Because you! Don’t accept Christ
Every night I close my eyes, nightmares of an empty future
I’m an empty shell, I’m a lonely soul. On my knees wasting it all
I’ve got to wake the fuck up and change all I am
I have to become a better version of myself
Pull out the goddamn knife and change your fucking life

The Awakening
04:43
|
|||
I descent of times when lords sat upon their golden thrones
Crawl by my will
And serve until the gallows
Torn shall be the hands
Blistering for eternity
You begged for mercy, upon my feet
You have no pride, so prepare to meet
Your maker’s judgment, or perhaps the beast
Who will take you down, for your final treat
I shall be the eyes
Who sees through your lies
I shall be the hand
Who punishes upon demand
Slaves one day stood fast
Without fear nor paralyzed
Strength in their arms
Turning the tides fighting for their lives
You asked for mercy but shall not receive
An act of kindness now your life shall leave
This traitors grave has its own reward
Die without your pride, die without your sword
Upon this earthly plain we shall live as kings
This is our revenge, its the awakening
You, known as a fraud
Creating hell in the name of god
You call yourself a savior
But the free are calling you a failure
Truth through the eyes of the free
Just brought you down to one knee
Ignorance shall be gone
When we’re god-free from dusk till dawn
