My thoughts fed on the dark vice.
I wished retribution for those from the human breed.
From this vengeful flame there is no escape,
They'll have to answer for their deeds.
There's no purity in their eyes,
Their very existence is a disguise.
Who gave the sun to this swinish scum?
Who gave them light of thought and tongue?
It was a fatal flaw to give to this tender earth
Those created in His image on the last day.
It was a mistake to name them,
Sinful Adam and whore Eve, the devil's prey.
I'll put the solemn palm on that earth.
I'll feel tenderness and love.
The doom will never break us.
Here lives the sin; we'll be above.
There's no depravity anymore.
There's no ignorance anymore.
There's no soullessness anymore.
There's no misery anymore.
I'll swear allegiance to Him,
Creator of all realms and lands.
I'll appeal to father
To put the sceptre into my hands.
Bless me, dear father,
Give me your strength and might.
Through dusk I'm carrying your crown
Illuminated with celestial light.
And then the prayers were heard,
And then the sign was seen.
My flesh was blessed with the blood.
Sentinel will be sent to the earth.
I'll put the solemn palm on that earth.
I'll feel tenderness and love.
Here lives the sin;
We'll be above.

The Hermon's Sin
10:05

Ah, I'm seeing this blessed land,
Which put itself on the demon's horn.
Its air is scalding and dense,
This world is anger and scorn.
And this thirst led to unknown.
The blood curdled with foretaste.
The human vice has thousand faces,
The human sin is a waste.
Turned into flesh, my foot set on land.
My brothers descend on Hermon.
In the darkness, whose taste is sweet,
A charming voice moves me on.
Tricephalous serpent, the primeval source,
Begetting the mercury, sulfur, and salt.
Temptation is strong when the spirit is weak.
We'll give in temptation and betray our vows.
Ah Great One, I'm seeing a mist
Rising and spreading on earth.
This breast tempts me
To defile the gift of birth.
Scream of our souls
Made us make our choice.
From god's slaves we turned
Into masters of lust.
Henceforth, those loyal to demiurge
Are weak and accursed.
Perdition awaits them all!
We tasted those sweet lips,
We put ourselves to those breasts.
We guarded, but our will was weak.
We served, but whom and why?
Her breath interrupted the silence.
The essence despised and rejected.
Was I mortal like she was?
Who was I?
A thunder was coming,
Moaning in fear was the earth.
The Nephilim were spewing out,
Bringing pain and curse.
The pride is infinite,
The world grows in progress.
I'll teach them writing and poetry,
With light filling my throat.
We tasted those sweet lips,
We put ourselves to those breasts.
We guarded, but our will was weak.
We served, but whom and why?

"Look at that," the Father said
The sin that swallowed earth like flame
Now I have to cleanse the darkness
Michael is my name
This strife in brother's mind
Brings death and perdition
My temple, the eternal haven
Has sank into oblivion
We came as kings here
Bringing the gift of life
We brought shame on demiurge
He won't leave us alone
My children, Nephilim, go ahead
Bring the primeval Chaos in your hands
Thou shalt be bold in the times of disgrace
Thou shalt be evil in the face of damnation
We came as kings here
Bringing the gift of life
We brought shame on demiurge
He won't leave us alone
The doom, joyful and impending
Brings perturbation and disaster
For prophets on the paths of truth
Silence was the answer
How far is vengeance from the place
That we once called our home?
At dawn of the new day
Will the sun still bless me?
I'm ready to create the law over and over again
For my brothers calling it flattery
Turning heads over and over again
Because his vengeance is awaiting
An insurgent, a restless soul
Stepped aside disjoining the world
Nourished on Chaos is his power
To hold the cosmos and beyond
So rise up, brothers, go ahead
This battle with Michael is our fate
Rise, Nephilim, the sons of sword
Let the blessing make you bold

I'm judged and fallen in disgrace
My sin is my judge
I'm staring at the blank face
Of executioner holding the scourge
I'll stand the test that befell me
No empathy, I procreate vengeance
They're willing to crucify, close, and hide me
For I haven't repented of what I'd done
But no regret, only laugh inside me
What pleasures does demiurge keep me for?
Those who dared defile His name in their pride
No mercy for those who rose against His glory
No mercy from the Eclipse master
They put me into chains
They hid my eyes
But I don't need to see
Now I know this world
This land is strange for Him, beyond His control
I've changed them, the human race is a part of me
They hear my call
They praise me
Let Him drown this world
This land is saturated with my blood
The symbiosis is real
Now everything lives in my light
They put me into chains
They hid my eyes
They confined me in the place
That's called Hell
…But at heart they know
My blood is here…
