Lyrics

In an age when the earth was born
Deep in the black maw of eternity's void
I commanded them - abysmal creatures
My minions, to prepare our rise
Neither beasts nor human beings
Wandered the earth when I came from below
From the inside of the mountain, the fiery grounds
Hell itself and earthen element

So there was movement underneath
I reside on my throne and behold:
Stone after stone shaped to become
The construction of my invincible fortress
"Behold my imperial rise - godfather in heaven..
I will create fear in all thou give life
Far beyond thy realm all shall die..."

And new ages came
Human creatures were born
Swarming the earth like insects
Resembling thorns in my eyes

"I'll send a messenger to them
That they turn their faces away
From their father in heaven
But weak as they are
Blind on knees for their god
They refused my honest offer..."

"So thou hast to be punished
With the worst of punishment
The earth shall turn against thee!"

The ground shakes
My fortress prepare to war
I crown myself with horns
And give the sign for attack!

Myriads die, my time has arrived, thy awe to me: satan!
Myriads die, my time has arrived, thy blood to me: satan!

And I ascend the earthen throne with fire by my side
My reign will be as cruel as torture, in darkness thou shall writhe
In every earthquake and great flood, in every death taking place
I am the one behind, the whole earth I enslave
I am the fallen emperor, I rejoice in hurting god
When eclipses devour the source of light my time has come to rise (and scourge
The whole)
Silence followed by the great storm, sweeping all life away
I am the fallen one from heaven, revenge is mine to those who pray
Weaklings, insects, lambs of god, to the slaughter thou shall be forced
The lands drown in thy blood, and thy spirits taken into fire
Now, when the new millennium began in the great eradication
The truth about hell is revealed and manifests in my arrival

Myriads die, my time has arrived, thy awe to me: satan!
Myriads die, my time has arrived, thy blood to me: satan!
