Throughout the centuries behind us
The lies remain the same
Conquest, greed and slaughter
All in the godhead's name
Self-righteous dispositions
Leading to eternal hate
Genocide and oppression
Spewing forth from heaven's gate
Arise break the chains of this existence
Let the divinity within you offer up resistance
Proverbial ruins now behind us
Detritus of what we could have been
Ideologies of stupidity
Have enslaved us all within
Usurper of the human spirit
Telling us only to obey
Subservient disciples now praying
Ignorant unto the grave
Arise break the chains of this existence
Let the divinity within you offer up resistance
Legions of Satan, demonic forces
Come when I call you to me
Burn down this kingdom with unholy force
Open the door set us free
War on the angels and war on the gods
Until no earthly slave yet remains
The will to our power will burn down your falsehood
Leaving your altars in flames
Selling you heaven and eternity
To plunder the world around you
Great cult of ignorance, made up of sheep
Squandering all that is true
Denying the body and pleasures of flesh
Eviscerating our humanity
Telling us who we should love and should hate
Too long we have been on our knees
Defy any teaching that proclaims
That divinity is outside of you
You are the god that you've been waiting for
Now raise your axe cleave every false lie in two
The eye of Satan opens the path
To the journey of enlightenment
Behold the double edged sword of the mind
A weapon against those who deceive
Iconoclastic hell bent fury
Burning holy symbols to the ground
Be true to your own self
Unleash the beast within
My anger broke graves open
And rolled old shattered law tables
Into deep chasms
My words came as a broom to the cross spiders
And as a scouring wind to old sepulchres
I stood rejoicing where old gods lay buried
Soaring over ashes on wings made of spite
A birds eye view watching society die
Decay reigns in the seat of power
Breaking down civilization hour by hour
The end is upon us
A choice we must make
To overthrow capital
Or die in its wake
Faithless and hopeless we perceive the madness
A futureless horizon brings nothing but sadness
Onward time marches without any mercy
Like a broken down dam, putrid and dirty
The end is upon us
A choice we must make
To overthrow capital
Or die in its wake
Sulking in despair and woe
Cities decay as we go
Justice a dream laid to waste
Aspirations laugh in our face
Crumbling realities converge
Hear now their funeral dirge
Rise, stand up tall and revolt
Raise your voice and be heard
Show the mother fuckers
That the time is now to take back our lives
Go forth, find strength in each other's power
Our enemies are winning by the hour
Show the mother fuckers
We have nothing to lose but our fucking chains
Fight back, let them feel our attack
Now there's no turning back
Show the mother fuckers
They can't kill our world and get away with it
Now's the time
Feel the rage within
Your mind
Seething hate for them
The pain
Clawing at your eyes
To see
Stupidity now reign
And now
Palaces will burn
Flames rise
To the heavens above
I curse
The leaders of this land
To Hel
Feel it coming now
's the time
Feel the rage within
Your mind
Seething hate for them
The pain
Clawing at your eyes
To see
Stupidity now reign
Workers of the world unite
Like Ravens
We soar above
The broken memories
Of our shattered pasts
Into
A magickal form
Calling on fire
Earth air and water
The power
That created the stars
And gave birth to the heavens
Is ours if we choose it
Raise up
The hammer of justice
Smash the usurpers
Take back our power
My eyes are open
And I can see
The filth that greed has left
All around me
My mouth is open
And I will speak
Attacks of heartless terror
At my enemies
