I raise you from these depths Hear my song abhorrent sing Consecrate his grave in black tongue Come forth now I call you With palms toward the sky From the hidden void you come
3.
His Blood My Summons stand steady as the Earth Those who thought death gripped my soul I've cursed the soil from which you've grown Incredulous apostasy of the righteous hand I've spake your name for eons passed Praise be given and taketh away If you will not appear with given name Then let my blackened tongue spirit you to say I've risen to hand you the secrets from the grave Galdr of the runic passage inscribed on your Bones Scripted avarice for hidden knowledge you hold You erudite fucker With these words I lay my curse Wisdom cruel of serpentine eyes Gilded tomb of your kingdom of lies Beneath all footpaths of Christian Man The venomous sonnets woven into your power and plan Vengeance is nigh as is an inevitable fate With these words I bind thou to the Hell you propagate
4.
From the ever changing skies To the ancient mountain peaks The mists that hover as a shroud Hidden in the annals of gateways Words of wisdom words of deceit Pages sacred now long gone Forbidden scripture and sigils sworn To give the power of the land of shadow Carving them into the hands and the marrow Myth and legends of the blackest magic The entrance to formidable fates Ancestors circle around to speak the curse Unto thee the throne is yours to take Trace these lines in blood upon the skin By moonlight, thorn and bones from your kin To you I ask passage to the gaping void Where the potent lineage is already mine I do not belong amongst mortal men Except my sacrifice To the depths I ride Accept the words I read My tongue sworn to the last breath seized Runes carved for the abyss Death travels fast through the black mist
5.
You chant well my son You will not survive ( Send him to the Gods) Gone is the Light Gone is the Sun Where Old Gods Ride I raise my voice (Send him below) They will fear me As I rise All will bend the knee or die The hiss of my sword through black skies I will push the venom of mythic snakes Unto the world through virulent veins Clandestine rite spoke through plumes of smoke Taken from the nails driven through prophets throats I've gained the power over darkness and thine Take your scrolls and place your name near mine I, Master I,Master Bells are tolling in the belfry Mists rise in an ethereal masquerade Concealing forms that cascade from beyond the grave Clutching my chest as a dagger twists my fate Above the stars extinguish in a great cacophony Hatred hardened my being and soul Power a corrupt ambition on its own To dwell on the short comings poisoned my memory and throne I will leave this place in ashes as a scorched Earth will bow down Never again will I regain the ebullience of my youth A specter, a cursed guise lost in a sea of darkness and fools Animosity the weapon of revenge for dishonor A choice forever to haunt my heart A wretched spirit deformed and cold Diligence to persuade the unseen Unjust applause for the deaths I caused Seeking dominion over the world wound bleeds I take these secrets to my grave I reclaim this northern realm as mine Beholden the words of wrath They will fall on all of mankind
6.
Costly came the knowledge I so long desired From shore to shore I spoke only of power Dark was the star under which I was born A fate accepted with gallows in mind Yet still to an unspoken oath I swore I would follow the footsteps of the pariah Haunting the grounds once holy and true I would kneel to a King yet not one of God Renounced it all for the disgraced fallen Truth in wisdom from the abandoned child Turned to face an undeniable fate Sermons given beneath reddened skies aflame As from the quaking ground you raised I've come to free you King of the abyss With song and praise you will rise Forked tongue sprung forth with smoke and flame Born of vehement fury A murderous intent Their gazes turned from me In fear and secrets kept Upturned hands I turned toward the sky And screamed your name "Gottskalk! Rise!" A sickness of snakes Fanged beasts implore your reign A cosmic throne of decadence Promise me in death I'll reap the same
