When in a time heaven was not named The earth beneath shrouded in obscurity The primeval dark, who sired them, And chaos, the mother of them both Darkness ruled a godless hollow sea Roaring pandemonium devoid divinity Waters raging endless cold abyss A time before time – a godless eternity When in a time heaven was not named The earth beneath shrouded in obscurity The primeval dark, who sired them, And chaos, the mother of them both When of the gods none had been called into being And none bore a name, no destinies were ordained Then were created the gods in the midst of heaven Down the sky born came down to lay claim When in a time heaven was not named The earth beneath shrouded in obscurity The primeval dark, who sired them, And chaos, the mother of them both

Lords assemble uniting in conspiracy Blood was drawn to seal the nine Master deciever devising a supremacy Stars align to serve the crime Serpent wings, dragon tounge Watch her stir, watch her grow Summoner of demon breed Antagonist great black worm Serpent wings, dragon tounge Watch her stir, watch her grow Mother queen master grand Protagonist ruler of our kind The challenge was accepted A battle to the death The gates thrown wide open Great terrors finally revealed Mother of time Mother of mine The chosen fought with fury The battle raged for days Beating black wings of horror She had finally arrived Mother of time Mother of mine The abyss stared in wonder Thunder cracked the sky Exalted king in blood Dark queen split in half The abyss stared in wonder Lightning filled the void Enraptured king in blood As our mother died

... People of the sun, behold! ... The snake dragon has come, behold! Fire blazes from his mouth as he speaks Shaper of universe, herald of destiny His word shall ever be the law eternal Liege lord of seven winds, ruler in victory ... Enthroned ... Enthroned He conquered endless armies, slew the night queen He was granted kingship, killed all her offspring Storming golden chariot, four poisoned steeds Chief among the gods, architect of man Fire blazes from his mouth as he speaks Shaper of universe, herald of destiny His word shall ever be the law eternal Liege lord of seven winds, ruler in victory ... Enthroned ... Enthroned ... Pepole of the sun -Enthroned ... the snake dragon has come -Enthroned
5.	Blood of Creation 04:35	lyrics	buy track
In the ancient garden of gods Behold the goddess of the sea God of wisdom and darkest abyss And the creation to be Grand watcher of eternal land Face the god of the deep With an arrow of his mighty wind Put a god to eternal sleep To bear the labour a god was put to death Mixed with darkest clay a master put to death In the ancient garden of gods Behold the goddess of the sea God of wisdom and darkest abyss A creation to be The flesh and the soul Blood kinship bound In the image of the gods A creation most profound
6.	The Chains of Gold 03:28	lyrics	buy track
When the gods like men bore the work -The mortal strain I shall create with a life -A hybrid race On whom the toil of the gods -Will be laid Though created as one - Divided into two I shall spin, I shall weave, I shall mold the links I will invoke, I will incite, I shall mold the links Conditioned into service - Born into chains of gold Bred to be led - Born into chains of gold Created to be controlled - Born into chains of gold Trained to be managed - Born into chains of gold Let us ease your burden my lord Take away your pain We will obey the authority Without fail Born to appease the imperial Subservient Under benevolent rule Yours to command Conditioned into service Bred to be led Created to be controlled Bred to be led Those seductive chains of gold Freedom is the sacrifice Those seductive chains of gold Your soul is the price

Four centuries we tended In bliss and blind devotion But now our spirits crave Freedom and independence To live is- to serve, This is our decree To live is- to serve, Fate of humanity To live is- to serve, This is our decree To live is- to serve, Fate of humanity We long for liberation Release the burning shackles Deliverance from suppression Unlock the blazing chains To live is- to serve, This is our decree To live is- to serve, Fate of humanity And so, we storm the walls Free from servitude For liberty and justice Free to live and die Escape the slavery For liberty and justice Grave is the price we have to pay For our disobedience Extinction end game The fury of the gods To live is- to serve, This is the decree To live is- to serve, Fate of humanity To live is- to serve, This is our decree To live is- to serve, Fate of humanity
8.	Betrayal 04:12	lyrics	buy track
Betrayal... At last, my eyes have opened Your rebellion will fail Witness your utter damnation The blood- it must be shed So, the tears shall fall Let the procession commence Through a haze of dreams A light so bright The destroyer comes It cannot be stopped Hear the children scream As judgement comes for you Betrayal... We have tasted the blood of the holy No salvation is on the altar We must never trust the flesh of God A vision of chaos and darkness No salvation in the mirror We must not trust the flesh of man Betrayal... And with my eyes wide open I condemn you to hell All achieved is lost The betrayal- it must be avenged So, the tears shall fall Let the procession commence Through a haze of dreams A light so bright The destroyer comes It cannot be stopped Hear the children scream As judgement comes for you Betrayal...
9.	The Inception of Impurity 07:00	lyrics	buy track
Enter aftermath, the cataclysm has passed Everything in ruin, the meek remained From the sea he rose, showed us life once more Thought us how to be, serpent lord of old Wisest of the wise, keeper of the flame Blasphemer to some, he would be cast down Tainted was his name, first among them all Whispers into screams, love turned into hate With promises betrayed, prophets sold the lie Worms of the world, enslaved us once again Obey the trinity, undying loyalty Own nothing but the fear of God until it claims your soul (Revelation quote) Crawling through the mud, worthless hollow husks Feeding the profound, useless empty shells Reeling in the grime, from nothing into less Sworn to the hive, soulless fucking filth Humanity erodes, deceitful faith decays Worshippers of gold, liars of the cloth Tainted was his name, first among them all Whispers into screams, love turned into hate With promises betrayed, prophets sold the lie Worms of the world, enslaved us once again Obey the trinity, undying loyalty Own nothing but the fear of God until it claims your soul
