Kneel 03:48
Kneel down, and beg! Your reign is over You have been removed, Be gone, lest you wish Slaughter Slaughter Heard you bleed, Saw you scream, Watched you drown in the stream If you resist, I will destroy you Better desist Accept me as your master The drops of blood, you drain from me I'll repay a million fold and fill a sea No mercy for the enemy, Pledge to me all your loyalty And if you think your soldiers, will still follow your orders. You'll see that every day More and more will betray. You didn't heed, Merciful warnings And now you've killed the seed I will grant no mourning Your time is through I will bury you Your dreams will not come true But you already knew I will bury you I will bury you I will bury you I will bury you

Ass Viking 05:06
The morbid thoughts of the living Weighed down by the consequence But what if the gods were giving Free reign over all? For the chosen Justice blooms be you willing Waiting for your consent But how do gods feel while killing? Vindication falls For the chosen The power flowing through bloodied hands Intoxicating The hour of reckoning at hand Time is fading The will, be made, flesh torn, with blades the weight of 10 000 corpses only lightens you Once ill, now well, forlorn, for hell The gate opens if you force it to a heightened view Am I ready to die knowing I've failed? Can i face the lie? I was never the one never chosen Am I ready to die knowing I've failed? Can I face the lie? I was never the one Never chosen Still standing Legs buried Sky landing Arms carried Justice blooms be you willing Waiting for your consent But how do gods feel while killing? Vindication falls We haven't forgotten what you owe A debt greater than your feeble soul Time to return what you stole Time to return what you stole Time to return what you stole Time to return what you stole

Must congregate Rally them all Acknowledge fate Soon we shall fall The sky will darken As the locusts gather here To devour And as they descend Raising the dust Know it's here Final hour With the light of fear The fog becomes clear The sublime and maligned bear all that exists The nature of plagues Pacifist enraged Impending, amending lore heard from the crypts The sky will darken As the locusts gather here To devour And as they descend Raising the dust Know it's here Final hour Water deserts ground Fire then rains down But the flames cannot change Their place as servants The season's harvest Of molten remains The hollowed carcasses Bloom in abundance Must congregate Acknowledge fate Rally them all Soon we shall fall The locusts The locusts Will devour Like seeds the dead have all been sown The living all have flown A pall obscures the day The pests have had their way

Waken Unstoppable since my birth Unleash my strength on the Earth All will submit If the dogs refuse to fight, They will feel their own bite Taking Control of the starving beasts Fed a cannibalic feast See their teeth grit If the dogs refuse to fight, They will feel their own bite Feigning The will of the one divine Hiding the true serpentine Swallowing whole There cannot be another force like me Fear my offspring Gazing Upon the hounds bleeding dry They won't be the last to die Ignore the toll There cannot be another force like me Fear my offspring They will annihilate us
