Apocryphal Existence of White Flame

Reap what you sow

Legends are
Passed down from elders to the young
Seeding thoughts
Those mythic tales woven and spun

I've become
That nightmare bearing many names
Be afraid
I'm the Apocryphal existence of white flame

Chosen to induce the
Final days of chaos coming to obliterate your world
I ask forgiveness for my sins

Against my home
Against my own
I feel remorse
For what must be done

Cities engulfed
No person spared
Their ether siphoned
For flesh to be prepared

I will make my legendary exit from this godforsaken realm
Making haste to lay waste across this tainted garden leaving cinders in my wake

Behold
My flames
Illuminate, disintegrate the land

Of sacred rest
And fleeting peace
Revealing that
Which laid beneath

Betrayal now becomes a rite of death

Crumbling in fear of pain
Embrace the reckoning
Trust is meant to go both ways
In me, your faith must stay strong

Opening the gate to
Climb from depths below emerging as a pyre in the sky
Bestowing death to save your world

From tyrant hands
And ancient blood
Ancestors perish
For progeny to thrive

I retch and weep
One foolish lie
The stars align
For the innocent to die

Keep my name
From your tongue
