Firstborn

Choking
On Mistakes of the past
Suffocating
Lungs collapse

Children suffer for the
Sins of their fathers
Their souls
Condemned to Anubis

The aftermath
Of extravagant life
Lived by the wealthy
No end in sight

Their mistakes will bring
Death by the thousands
Not eternal life

The firstborn son
Carries weight on his shoulders
Crippled by the sins of the Father

Ritualistic
Sacrifice
Will not bring you
To the afterlife

Pray to your gods to
Absolve your conscience
Judgement is nigh

Your tomb will stand as your family crumbles
The alter of wasted riches

Ritualistic
Sacrifice
Will not bring you
To the afterlife

Pray to your gods to
absolve your conscience
Judgement arrives

The weight
Of your heart
Will condemn your soul

Your children
Will suffer
In the afterlife
Eternal

The weight of your heart
Will condemn your soul
Placed on the scales
Only gods will know

The life you have lived
On earth will be judged
By the child you bore
To a dying world

The weight of your heart
Will condemn your soul
Placed on the scales
Only gods will know

The life you have lived
On earth will be judged
By the child you bore
To a dying world

The aftermath
Of extravagant life
Lived by the wealthy
No end in sight

Their mistakes will bring
Death by the thousands
Not eternal life
