1.	Khonsu: The Traveler From Thebes 03:54	lyrics	buy track
Wind ruffles his strand And covers memories with ancient sand Strand’s blowing off the flesh from our hands Our legacy will fade; a moment of despair There’s nothing that can make the pathfinder go out of his straight way Those who fall behind disperse in perpetuity. There is no coming back The silent wayfarer never let us lose track Will you make any break before the very end? We offer sacrifice to make you stop and rest We beg for mercy upon our graying dry heads For any minute given over what you’ve granted Tonight the sun will rise on the western bank of Nile To let the Moon highlight the way There is no chance to overtake the time Nowhere to run from him, the traveler from Thebes Mortals change their gods, kingdoms, and faces His eyes are motionless with no expression The indifferent curator of the motions Never does he change pace Parchments and manuscripts will start decaying The sand will refract the tales told and legends He comes to heal the wounds or to infect them Keeping us feeling the pain Lives are flowing out as grains, slipping from his hands Falling down into dimples of his sandals’ treads The Scourge of Thebes takes our youth away Every bone will start turning frail Tonight the sun will rise on the western bank of Nile To let the Moon highlight the way There is no chance to overtake the time Nowhere to run from him, the traveler from Thebes We are not the first who will turn into dust The end is not tonight Tonight Tonight the sun will rise on the western bank of Nile To let the Moon highlight the way Tonight we’ll built the temple of him The only thing to stand eternally
2.	Set: The Shark in the Womb 05:01	lyrics	buy track
Unaware flesh for a shark to feed Shark to feed Lord of All was born Taken into nurture, in forehead child was kissed by Geb In unfortunate time Black abomination broke through their mother’s side With gaze he ignites the court of sycophants No one cares for pariahs and exiles Jealousy feeds this abscess Storm upon your head, Osiris Servants, open up the lid Casket of gold someone will have to claim The guests of the feast have tried to lay inside For the firstborn it was meant The brother eaten by the shark The conspirators boarded up the casket trapping him inside And muffled screams won’t help elude the horrible demise No way out Middle brother claimed his crumpled atef crown Trapped god drowned Will there ever be a fool to challenge the animal of sha He’s ruling over kneeling lamb And Nephthys has desired to deliver child He spares no one who can bring him down All sons are given to Set’s wrath King of seamen carved a column Installed in his Palace Sarcophagus found in Byblos Was overgrown with bark Don’t cry And suck a thumb, Prince of Phoenicia She tears her love out from deathbed To bring it back to Egypt Hidden body is soaked in her sorrow But restless parties are in Nile Delta searching Dreadful Set has found the body of his sibling With a khopesh he chopped it in fourteen pieces King of seamen carved a column Installed in his Palace Sarcophagus found in Byblos Was overgrown with bark Don’t cry And suck a thumb, Prince of Phoenicia She tears her love out from deathbed To bring it back to Egypt Shreds scattered across, sought by kites and falcons They are flying over Red Land of Sahara All pieces collected And brought to the Jackal The kingdom’s on fire Disorder and riots Lone shark came from belly Is eternally hungry
3.	Thoth: The Silent Witness 04:41	lyrics	buy track
Imbibe the wisdom of the moon The ibis-headed scribe delivers us the truth Deceiving Thoth in vain He is the keeper of the memory Maat’s quills He prefers over sharpened spears With the quill He will scribe the laws To guide souls To the afterlife To the light Through the cycles of life, death, rebirth Thoth is sealing our fate on his scrolls Witness on the trial of gods Will expose your every vice and act Of the people’s pleas he is a messenger He puts our hearts against the feathers on the scale He reconciles wrathful gods and men Brings all fights to the ends Those who have rejected Ibis’ bless Who spread the word of heresy And who fall prey to Set’s deceit Are damned Their souls are tormented by the demons they’ve unleashed They are condemned to eternal agony Without light of the divine In the dark they all swarm Their simple minds Lost in the chasm of their own design Oh Thoth, the scribe of truth and law Observes without judgment as we mortals rise and fall For him the wars and love are mere commotions on the Earth below The silent witness and the keeper of the lore Knowledge is magic for those dwell in dark Science and wisdom in primal fear they try to ban Minions of Set are deifying themselves Charming army of fools to stand on four in their herd Forgotten in sands They will decay Accept the faith And you will prevail Oh Thoth, the scribe of truth and law Observes without judgment as we mortals rise and fall For him the wars and love are mere commotions on the Earth below The silent witness and the keeper of the lore
4.	Amon-Ra: The Battle for Tomorrow 04:00	lyrics	buy track
Another night to survive Another serpent devoured the sun One has to wait patiently For stern sentinel. The fight lasts eternally Bring back the sun Bring back the dawn Ra, restless and bold Spawned under the distant horizon Was here before To stand for the realm fighting off the Rebellion led by snake Bloody tumors’ blighting skin of agonizing Geb The serpent’s chewing on the holy tree of Netjer-Wadjet Hathor defends the roots Sebau-fiend, the demon king, absorbs the hatred leaking from her eyes O, the poison in vomit The fiery cat’s protected by Scorpion Scales have an odor of charcoal A slaughtering dagger to penetrate them with Let the fangs bite through the skin and closer be its head Fight the beast with its venom spreading in your veins Fear not death but void consuming universe and save the coming day He sails on board his Solar Rook Crushing through the waves of Nut When a serpent gorges on light he’s there for the Battle of Today And when the darkness falls on lands Then towards East they turn their eyes To meet a new dawn To see Bennu reborn Innumerable souls are trapped in the dark caves Awaiting solar jury whom they greet and praise By every hour at the gates Immortal Apep is to be slain Every night The Pantheon has to unite As a sacrifice The shattered Sun will have to die He sails on board his Solar Rook Crushing through the waves of Nut When a serpent gorges on light he’s there for the Battle of Today And when the darkness falls on lands Then towards East they turn their eyes To meet a new dawn To see Bennu reborn Night after night The Pantheon has to unite As a sacrifice The shattered Sun will have to die
5.	Maat: The Feather Against the Heart 03:03	lyrics	buy track
We shall begin Another seeking soul With organs in canopic jars Just about in time Raise your head and kneel Begin the trial God among the men Your sarcophagus’ full of scarabs Buried in the tomb With all wretched servants They followed you. Can’t see the end of a human chain You even brought a camel caravan Your rook is lurching on the shoal They worshiped you but have you doomed them all? Demuatef will make a count of all the viands and vines you have consumed All the words to be evaluated but it is hard to speak with lungs removed Were you succumbed by your royal pride? Were the wars you started worth of broken lives? Impatient Ammut starts drool when (she craves) The heart is placed on Maat’s scale (awaiting for the feast) All the vices into deben (cause tilt) Will the feather overweight? Do you remember negative confessions? Fields of Reeds will welcome you once received the ancestors recognition (Speak) All the temples, sacrifices (Offerings of mortals) Gold and pelts are for nothing (Was it our true desire?) I sentence What will it be? Duat? Which plate will bear your destiny? So shall I let you inside our realm? Open up the gates Impatient Ammut starts drool when (she craves) The heart is placed on Maat’s scale (awaiting for the feast) All the vices into deben (cause tilt) Will the feather overweight?
6.	Horus: The Never Changing War 04:19	lyrics	buy track
Run in the darkness of night, Isis Hide in the swamps and let reeds howl with their rustle scattered There's a village. Move! Knock on doors, cry for a shelter loud Seven scorpions will pave a way away from Set Shall not expect a virtue. Not everyone will let you in Tefen will punish them by stinging sons in beds Horus has stopped breathing, his lungs are black – the gift from Set Thoth gave fluid to the grieving mother, the essence of Ra’s life himself Years have passed and dying boy has grown strong and bold It’s time to bring revenge upon the head Of the kinslayer of the gods For seven days they had been feeding sand with their blood A fleeting glance and eyes struck with a disease For seven days. Until Set fell Ropes keep Set’s arms tight. A touch of sandal to the forehead The father is avenged Sha versus hawk. The eyes and the limbs are torn, constellations to be born Pantheon will shatter in pieces in this war And now here we are fighting for the Golden Throne disposing father’s bones The war, whatever it is, will never change It didn’t stop the contention. Who will rule these lands? Let the trial determine who’s the best And we will fight on the island Where no woman can be ferried to Isis tricked everyone Turned into an old hag full of lies A parable to take Set at his spoken words Your own lips have condemned you The cattle thief shall be beaten The cursed golden ring got The ferryman skinned Vindictive Set will not accept We’ll hold our breaths turned into two hippopotamuses On the shore Set torn out Horus eyes Two boats race down Nile (the final trial) Immediately the boat of stone has sunk to the bottom Wrath and fangs Aim for Horus’ eyes His throw of spear Ends this skirmish Sha versus hawk. The eyes and the limbs are torn, constellations to be born Pantheon will shatter in pieces in this war And now here we are fighting for the Golden Throne disposing father’s bones The war, whatever it is, will never change Mercy for Set Isis demands (Got her head off) But Thoth revived her and brought reconciliation Father is avenged. The throne inherited Set to be buried in sand chained, ashamed, and damned
7.	Osiris: Your Death is Just a Beginning 04:28	lyrics	buy track
It’s crowded in your tomb. The mason’s carving scenes on walls All golden challises you ate exotic viands from Are stored among the clothes, the amulets of gods The was you hold you keep along the hedjet on your scalp You have never looked as gorgeous as today With your skin have turned blue and your eyes have turned gray Have they started extraction? Have they started to open your mouth? Is your body ready for embalmment? What a joy for me. Your death is just a beginning I want to accede. There’s nothing left with a meaning My master’s gone, but he’s alone on the other Side of the verge where Geb and Nut are colliding My breath is bonded to your lungs How can I leave you and break the ties? Of my servitude eternal Even after death Your voice is heard across the land Can’t you see my willingness to stay? (by your side) All the sphinxes have turned their eyes away (Lowered down their heads in grief) Now there lies the god we praised at nights Not gonna leave you, my pharaoh (you won’t be alone) Don’t shed a tear for me I’m part of a funeral procession I’m thrilled to enter the Chamber of ibu en waab The priest’s envious face have Turned into the face of jackal’s Wrapped in white I’m patient (lie) As they start to bury me alive It gets harder to breathe My lungs are burning inside. I wish I could scream Wake me after death My body’s nothing more but mold Can’t you see my willingness to stay? (by your side) All the sphinxes have turned their eyes away (Lowered down their heads in grief) Now there lies the god we praised at nights Not gonna leave you, my pharaoh (you won’t be alone) Your death was just a beginning What is meant to be alive? Stuck in the corporeal Sailing to the fields. To the fields of reeds Nothing to be scared of and even the waves of Nile It is impossible for you to fail the trial Osiris will welcome you in his kingdom Among ancestors’ rooks we will have yours anchored
8.	Isis: Caught in the Knot 03:37	lyrics	buy track
Not enough Not enough offerings for her in Phillae Nothing satisfies her hunger for the domination There is something hidden in his heart Behind the name. The existence of the realm itself Tell her the real name Not the one she heard before or she will Sculpt for him a snake Dripping from his tongue it will be waiting for him by the road Never he misses a walk Oh how exposed he is to her Caught in the knot Caught in Isis’ knot How dreadful his roar after the bite In convulsions lies the greatest of all gods He never felt fear but it’s in his white eyes Too late to call Sekhmet for help Grimace has twisted his tongue and mouth Unbearable to see The Mighty One in agony Does he deserve to be called her king? Powerless, let her help with this disease All she needs is his name He was calling himself all known names Among which were Atum and Khepri Isis did not let her be deceived She is the only one who can save him The more he’s lying The more painful is suffering Liar. Give it up She will not be tricked by Morning Sun She will find the name of power in his heart She will extract it right from his chest From his chest Having his name in her possession she will conquer all the realm In convulsions lies the greatest of all gods He never felt fear but it’s in his white eyes Too late to call Sekhmet for help Grimace has twisted his tongue and mouth
9.	Anubis: Can’t Escape the Hound 04:55	lyrics	buy track
Guard forever, the sentinel of the wrapped in white Guard forever, the sentinel of the wrapped in white (organs stored in jars) Your embalmment is what keeps us all dead but we feel so alive No one can crawl in swamps unnoticed by his hounds Remains of minions will fertilize Awoken honor made their master use disguise But the jackal is not tricked by him Canine nose can feel the scent of own kind The long forgotten son feel no hesitation Battle in the reeds has drawn Thoth’s attention Together they bounded the beast It broke free and retreated to desert But the jackals hounds cling on its flesh Buried under the mount With fire breathing serpents on guard The sacrament of cleansing fills the tomb The seven spirits forged in fire will you serve Seven stars to guide in the afterlife No miscreant will dare to ruin rites of embalmment But insidious god never sleeps And he desires to intervene He breaks again from his confinement From beyond the dunes comes closer the howl Try to catch a fleeing panther Feline shall look around and seek for the hound When he is caught brand him with iron Show all the enemies the skin turned inside out Hear marching acolytes of Set They seek to avenge their god Anubis with one swing cut off their heads Transformed the land into shesait Try to catch a fleeing panther Feline shall look around and seek for the hound When he is caught brand him with iron Show all the enemies the skin turned inside out Guard forever, the sentinel of the wrapped in white (organs stored in jars) Your embalmment is what keeps us all dead but we feel so alive The eternal fight Osiris is to decide So much work to embalm them all Judgment is not up to the hound Try to catch a fleeing panther Feline shall look around and seek for the hound When he is caught brand him with iron Show all the enemies the skin turned inside out
10.	Tefnut: The Greatest Drought 04:42	lyrics	buy track
Thrive, the pastures along the Nile, the land of Ta-kemet Another day was saved by Bennu Welcomed by the early rays Time to harvest wheat and barley But something has changed in the air There’s no breeze coming from drying Nile There’s no clouds in the sky Cracks appear on bowls Not a drop caught. How to feed the crops? They have been waiting for Akhet There was no inundation Eternity in Shemu Until they succumb to famine The horses lay in sand The pulled out nets are empty The wheat have merged with earth and fruits became just solid rocks The children ribs are exposed The skulls are cleansed by ants The dilapidated and run aground vessels Hungry teeth pierce flesh of fallen citizens of Thebes Viscous as a persimmon every piece fills eyes with tears Life has left these lands today Tefnut won’t hear them pray She’s done enduring evaporation Ra, her incandescent father Is not there to shine for her brighter Full of hatred she made her way out To the lands afar to the south Break! Away from the temples where they praise illusion Let waterfall running through rocks to take you away (Leaving behind the barren wastelands) Every fall and broken bone justify the moisture that was taken with you So the Greatest Drought you left behind (Taking the life) She left a mess, the goddess with a lion head But she is tired running to Nubian plains She’s resting under a canopy of tree Disturbed by Thoth disguised in baboon’s skin Don’t rend defenseless little monkey friend You’ll bring on your head Our father’s retribution I know what pain you do feel But we need you back there You will be welcomed back The Sun will host a feast For Tefnut wise and strong The greatest goddess among us all We do admit mistakes For all the lies and negligence But think of the folk. Let them all survive The dooming drought you have left behind Break! Away from the temples where they praise illusion The sun behind has gotten buried by your watery silhouette They’ll never forget, how they were all saved by your selfless decision The pastures of crops have turned into gold and stock started breed Every soul now praises the glory of the Mother Lion finding her way back home From the Greatest Drought you left behind
11.	Hathor: Drunken With Blood 04:21	lyrics	buy track
Infinity before the gods have ascended the skies They led the flock from the throne on the Earth With lotus in their hands, they granted wealth to their creations Asking for their praise and undisputed devotion Demanding their bent knees they made the cattle fertile, rivers spilled Never brought them famine The ones who walk the sand eventually will be cursed to deteriorate The Great Sun started fading Lapis lazuli instead of hair, silver for bones Slowing down with his every move all his body soon started to turn gold All the peasants saw him from their nomes How can decrepit rule the kingdoms? We’d better take care of ourselves We’ll start revolt He summoned Divine Council To decide the defectors fate So that he was advised to send a vicious lion To bring upon them the vengeance of Hathor Slashed and beaten rest their bodies in sand Down to the shores flows the blood The more does she prey, the more does she want, the bitter eye of Ra Even God cannot stop her wrath. She broke free of chains. The massacre of vile Het-Nesut Was the starting point, until the waters turned in crimson Observing the carnage, The Sun got imbued with compassion She was deaf to him, drunken by rage Slashed and beaten rest their bodies in sand Down to the shores flows the blood The more does she prey, the more does she want, the bitter eye of Ra Even God cannot stop her wrath Stop it! You have it taken too far Drink it! The sedative for your wrath Rest now! I am merciful God Ra’s eye shall return to the sky Ra’s eye! Ra’s eye! Ra’s eye! The Sun’s eye shall return to the sky!
12.	Imhotep: The Falcon of Gold 03:34	lyrics	buy track
You hear me out From my belly’s bursting your abomination Another spell For repelling the crocodiles that come to steal The heart of this This Osiris Imhotep true of voice In the god’s land words spoken by This Imhotep the greatest of healers to Take care of this Osiris True of voice When the Great One fell On his blackened bleeding spoiled side But his Ennead Has pulled him together again Imhotep True of voice, who speak the spells repelling those who wants to steal the heart Then the ba has come With his father reborn when he saved the night While he saves the deity great From crocodiles, insects and snakes As for me I know their names And by that I know they live I am the one who saves his father From their bites and poison that fills the veins Get back! Gorger of the sun Get back! Vermin, hear me out Your abomination is inside of me As falcon I have flown Spreading my wings that are made of malachite When my heart was brought to me From the farthest eastern mountains I came when those who are in their Desperation kneeled to serpents They gave me praise when I appeared As a perfect falcon of gold And now I have faith that I am your god And I am the one who saves us from dark Light reflects on gold. Light is what you need Now hear Falcon’s cry, hear Falcon’s cry Get back! Gorger of the sun Get back! Vermin, hear me out Your abomination is inside of me

Unbelieveable how these guys grew so big so quick, you think? Think further I say and bang my head off to their crushingly heavy brand of symphonic deathcore. And they deliver this live as well and hopefully are going to wreck metal venues near you soon - and ruin your neck oc. They earned everything they got. mourner
