Morbid Angel
Kingdoms Disdained
1. Piles Of Little Arms
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
They've come to bring us gift
They've come to make us whole
They've come to give us God
Their gift of Heaven
They've come to make us civil
Their gifts as ransom
Their God comes with a cost
We must give up all
For prayers in a foreign tongue
To a foreign throne
Erase our traditions
Erase our way of being
Erase our elder's teachings
Erase, replace these ways
Generations of wisdom
In exchange for ransom
Your God comes with a cost
A cost to us all
Prayers in a foreign tongue to
A God unknown
From demons, you will never see
Prayers that will save your soul
Blessed are the children
We have come to save them all
We came to cure disease that
Has never made you ill
We came to make you clean,
To protect you from yourself
They've come to bring us hope
They've come to save our souls
They've come to make us holy
They've come to give us Heaven
They've come to make us civil
Just like them
Their God comes with a cost
And we must give up
All of our traditions
Erase our way of being
Erase our elder's teachings
Erase, replace these ways
Generations of wisdom
They have taken away
Our culture has been erased
Bring every child they blessed
With the needle's mark
Chop off every little arm
Let the children bleed
2. D.E.A.D.
[Department of Eradication And Disposal]
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
Shards of broken machinery
Gears dislodged and flailing
Flesh gives steel no challenge
Bones cannot withstand
Blades will smash resistance
Chains will drive the hunting of the flesh
Slick through the skin straight to the soul
Leaving no breathing man alive
Kill them all
Knock down their walls, flatten their homes
Leaving no place for the humans to hide
Kill them all
Burn every bridge
Scorch every crop in case one survives
Kill them all
Burn every one
Grind their bones to dust
Mere flesh cannot withstand us
We have come to wipe this planet clean
To end your consumption
Mere flesh cannot withstand me
I've come to wipe this planet clean
To clean to burn to grind
Blades will smash resistance
Chains will drive the hunting of the flesh
3. Garden Of Disdain
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
No God will claim this garden
Too sickening to the eyes to see this
Long ignored my words of warning
From the world I built, erased
So it shall know no peace in my time
In absence of my voice for guidance
In the absence of my hand and whip
Grew the absence of the knowing
Unknowing
Grew the absence and grew the festering
A boiling abscess that
Was sure to burst with failure
From a distance I have observed
Minding my slaves like children
Absorbing your petty struggles
Disgusted by your petty lives
I have witnessed your sleight of hand
I was betrayed by you many times
I have craved to bring forth my vengeance
I have yearned to dismantle this
World of unfathomed treasures
This garden disgraced by man
Your ways despised by beasts and gods alike
All gods agree your ways must end
They have waited long to see this
You claim to not need my guidance
Yet you reach for my hand and plead
Obsessed with your futile struggles
You are mistaken to think I feel
From a distance I have observed
Minding my slaves like children
Absorbing your petty strife
Disgusted by your petty life
All gods have left this garden
These gods have left in shame
Dismissed and long forgotten
This world of useless being
This endless festering
4. The Righteous Voice
[Music: Azagthoth, Fuller, lyrics: Tucker]
Kingdoms infamous for taking as they please
To appease a voice of righteousness
Infidels and heretics, enemies of our light
Shall be dealt with in the name of God
It is the rite of our kind to silence any tongue
That would try to oppose the king of our land
Bring us their heads as trophies of our victories
Praise us and align as soldiers of a destiny
Foretold by ancient prophets
Bring us new lands, these people too will praise us
Praise our God or meet your own
It matters not to us, we have glory either way
Bow down before our king
Fear is your new faith, fear is your new doctrine
Be docile until we say, be ready with your life
If the king needs you to die
Bring us their head as trophies of our victories
Praise us and align as soldiers of a destiny
Foretold by ancient prophets
Bring us new lands, these people too will praise us
The followers of ancient ways shall be taught to follow us
Or be beaten to their fate
The kingdom does not accept any praise of other lands
It will be treated as an act of war
You exist because we allow it, so kneel to show your God
It is us that you fear
Prepare to learn the ways of this new kingdom
Prepare to swear your soul and life to keep it
Prepare to give yourself to do our bidding
Prepare to sacrifice for our desire
5. Architect And Iconoclast
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
With swipe of hand release disease
Exonerate their thoughts of gods
At odds with what they see
With slam of fist to flesh of earth
Discharge your breath of
Molten poison, scorch their lungs
I am all prophecies fulfilled
Yet you refuse too see this
You mock my name, have you forgotten?
I am the truths that were lost, taught
As myths and buried in earth
The soil won't hide the warning signs
My art, to bring demise
My skill, it is necessity
My will, exists through time
It's my rite, to rid this world of life
My presence means demise
I relinquish kings of power
My course to disassemble life
To embellish while you cower
I am proof that all denied, was scripted
For all to know this
Thus all who closed their eyes
Will pray now to have witnessed this
With abandon, they have tarnished
In ignorance they devour
Consumed by the lust of owning all
Their slavery, their bliss
They are repulsed by the gifts we have given
They cannot hold them in their hands
These fools have felt unsettled
Shall stay and watch it as it burns
I am the architect
It is my design to betroth this earth
You called my name
Have you forgotten?
I am the builder of all loss
I am the keeper at all cost
The soil, the air, are my creations
And I shall watch them burn
I am the architect
I am the un existence
You know my name!
You have not forgotten!
I am creator of this world
I am the keeper of the soil
The soil won't hide
The warning signs
I am all prophecies fulfilled
Yet you refuse to see this
You mock my name
I have not forgotten!
I am the truths that were lost,
Taught as myths and buried in earth
The soil, the air, are my creations
6. Paradigms Warped
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
To amend any treasons of the truth
Or of the soul
We the gods of all things share witness
So be it the law
That any being beneath our skies shall
Know our mercy when it is earned
And shall know the wrath of the gods
When it is deserved
Now we decide
These feeble yet volatile human beings have menaced
Beyond what is acceptable
Their yearning to self consume in misery
Has made them every bit expendable
Their reasoning brings questions of their
Understanding, their truth is anything
But logical and I suspect that the facts
Will show beyond a doubt, the evidence is clear to see
I share your hatred and I share in your disgust
I second the motion, beyond a doubt, they are expendable to us
Release all demons of the underworld, release the wrath of all our kin
Release the demons beneath the soil, let this cleansing now begin
Now come our fury upon this world
Now come to bring upon them endless night
Resolve this land of these succubi
These humans, this burden
7. The Pillars Crumbling
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
Hypocritical guidance has confused the masses
Veiling the instinctive nature of a higher cause
Accumulation and consumption
Evaluated by your possessions
Unabated cleansing of a deeper being
Dissociative dissent, liberation through ignorance
Disseminate devolution, dissipation of disruption
Isolation and dejection, disenchanted exhilaration
Discomposed reverence, subservient
Constant denial of truth
Constant distrust
Constant obedience
This has spawned a new type of human
Who live in fear and addiction
Lead them
Guide them to extinction
8. For No Master
[Music: Tucker, Fuller, lyrics: Tucker]
Gone is the will, gone is the time, the ways of the righteous
Again we will never see them
Gone is the strength, gone is the courage, to deny these treasures
Gone is the way of every king
To no kings have we prayed
To no kings do we bow down
To no prayers do we yield our cleansing
Your gods rejoice in your end
Hear us sing
Of man in eulogy
Mocking the gods and their heresy
In glory of how it soon will be
Mourning no gods, for they will know defeat
Gone is their pride, gone is their hate, gone is every witness
Gone is the need to decide
Gone is all life, gone is the tumor that is human being
Gone is the need for their gods
With no gods do we feast
From no gods do we cower
No prayer will yield our cleansing
This fate no god would change
9. Declaring New Law (Secret Hell)
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
Bring before me anyone who opposes my name
Bring before me any voice that speaks in disdain of me
Bring before me any force that would challenge my will
Bring before me every vessel that is filled with doubt
Erase them from my kingdom
We have no way to feed them
Burn down every home that keeps them safe at night
Rape them as you wish their daughters
Feed the wolves their mothers, erase them
Make sure that every father sees his son die, before he bleeds
Erase them and let the kingdom see it
Erase them
Take the gold and burn the rest
Torture any fool that does not submit
Erase them
Have them swear devotion, then cut out their tongue
Torture any fool that does not submit
Make them believe in this
10. From The Hand Of Kings
[Music: Tucker, Fuller, lyrics: Tucker]
Empires and nations fall, caesars were men not gods
Idols change as needed through time
Generals are irrelevant without war
Kings mean nothing without fools
To master
To feed their manic ego
To win their lusted plights
To follow with no caution
To follow to demise
Mad men are praised and worshiped
Enslavers victimize
Torture, always their answer
To teach incessant hatred
The hand of God became filled with riches for only kings
The hand of kings became the will of men enslaved
11. The Fall Of Idols
[Music: Azagthoth, lyrics: Tucker]
Our darkest days have come
Barbaric rules, self-serving
Abandoned hope of gods
Dismissed and long forgotten
Our fate cannot be seen
Prophetic fools have failed us
Their visions long dispelled
They've fallen, like all idols
We demand a victor's feast
We demand that all shall know thee
We demand your end be praised
Destroy all statues standing
Built before you reign
Tear them down in your name
Disregard all existence
All kings before your time
They shall all be erased
You claim to desire peace
But if the truth be seen
You know us as your enemy
The ones that praise your grace
The fools that claim your glory
Will watch the pillars fall
And see your kingdom burn
You called us impure heathens
You mocked our culture's ways
You forced disbelief upon us
By way of sword and blade
You ruled with hand of fury
You pillaged and you raped
None shall sing your praise
They claimed you as their savior
Embraced your heinous ways
You proved yourself a failure
You swore to be the shelter
To shield is from the storm
Yet, you brought this reign upon us
A shattered ego fallen
Dismissed and soon forgotten
Your name will be erased
We always were your enemy
And if the truth be seen
We brought your end of days
Praise no man as savior
