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

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

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

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

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
