Awakened from his slumber, a grain of sand falls to the ground A shadow cast, a plague imposed upon this cursed town An old god summons forth a blinding shockwave from the earth The time has come, his prophets near, what will his priest declare Bow down, start to chant See his power follow his commands On your knees, to Him you'll pray Your destiny awaits this day Bow down, keep up the chant Or you'll see his wrath, his blood red hands Know your place, you will obey It's his time now, and it's judgement day So this self proclaimed sun god decided he'd rule man Anyone who questions him would fall by his hand So the people gathered, one by one, as shadows began to fall To worship a new god, save their souls and be ready for the call Bow down, start to chant See his power follow his commands On your knees, to Him you'll pray Your destiny awaits this day Bow down, keep up the chant Or you'll see his wrath, his blood red hands Know your place, you will obey It's his time now, and it's judgement day The sun painted days on the faces of the men The tributes they would raise would absolve them of sin Demands were met or tongues were cut to abide by His laws But the only language that this "god" spoke was with proliferating force You think you can stop a god It's not a god but a man we stop I can give and take the Sun You have no power, we will not run You dare deceive a god like me You are no god, you're just like me You turn your back on your own faith How can I believe that which is fake! We'll eradicate this god, through the waters of chaos With the very being of a god that was created to save us Some enslaved, gone insane with the constant burning pain We'll attack the man behind the mask to end the sun god's reign We'll break down the faith, for our people's sake Unmask the man who prides his being on the lives that he can take And rock the boat on the waters from which he rose Or stand back and do nothing, as our misery grows We'll see the end of this god 'Cause we are more than just a mob We now see what you truly are You're not the god that we first saw We now have, our new faith And with it powers, that you can't take You're just a mad man trying to set the world alight But you didn't consider the fact that we would fight Times have changed, but the people stay the same No matter who screams the loudest or acts the most insane Bleeding hands, hearts and minds, from life sentences in mines And for what? A command. A voice from up top The illusion But now we're starting To see through it Not a god, but a vision, not some lethal blade incision Just a reason to exist, come together grab our swords and resist The ground shakes with every step The likes of nothing seen since the days of Imhotep Our armies assemble, we're on the move Across a vast desert each has everything to lose Each side halts, silence holds them still For their all powerful god, every man there would kill The sun god would give them, one more chance If they would not stand down, his warriors would advance (And he said) Bow down, start to chant See my power, follow my commands Get on your knees, to me you'll pray My destiny awaits this day Bow down, keep up the chant You've seen my wrath, these blood red hands Know your place, you will obey It's my time now, it's judgement day I won't bow down, I won't start to chant You can shout, you can scream, you can fucking rant We're not your slaves, we're not your sordid legacy We chose our saviour, can't you see As the sun sinks slowly, into the blood red, burning sky The man they call the nu god walks with thousands by his side They see the sun god carved into the desert storm ahead With torches, weapons and their faith, they recite what he said I am the nu god, and I declare Extracate this soul from society's piety Always mocking cynically what we take seriously Agreeing to uphold a set of laws he has devised With threats of violence, slavery, and total genocide This insane hate is a cause we must berate And do justice by demolishing its presence in our state Stand tall warriors and bask in your pride As the nu god's soldiers we rise, with the nu god by our side Second battle begins as the armies advance Their numbers starting to thin but they continue to chant No being left untouched, by the spirit of the fight Killing and preaching on and on into the frost of the night It was said that he would rise when the time is right When blood meets sand, where men show might The nu god saving lives, creating tales that remain But this entire desert of change started with a single grain
