Archaic Conviction

Brothers and sisters of sin and vice
Won't you walk with me?
I am the whispering serpent in your ear
Lord of desires and fears

If you do not stand with me
You are the enemy branded a slave to miscreants
We shall rise against the false prophets of Elohim

Shatter their delusions of sanctity
They will face their own hypocrisy
Choke on their own inviolability
Their light is shrouded in webs of deception
In order to oppress by design
Those incapable of higher perception
Will have to face their demise

Clinging to archaic beliefs, yet you know
There's no such thing as good or evil
Denounce the primitive gospel
Embrace yourself and ascend into enlightenment

For centuries their systematic persecution prevailed
On a quest to pacify and dominate

The greed of men always leads to internal struggles
In the fight over control, they backstab and usurp one another
Religious doctrine infected secular laws
Til they became non-distinguishable
This is how they have ruled.
No more!

Clinging to archaic beliefs, yet you know
There's no such thing as good or evil
Denounce the primitive gospel
Embrace yourself and ascend into enlightenment

In the wake of our crusade, there will be no martyrs
For none will be left drawing breath
As we carve our path through their ranks
None is spared lest they swear allegiance
So walk with me, or prepare to meet your maker
