Spirit Of Amarok

An ancestral instinct for hunting
Prevailing over compassion
A natural law governing life
Since the dawn of time
Looking for game to feed the tribe
Struck by unbearable hunger
The simple life of the hunter-gatherer
The most noble of all quests
A natural instinct of survival
Prevailing over compassion
The gifts of nature, we must accept
Our mother, the Earth, we must respect
Looking for game to feed the tribe
Struck by unbearable hunger
The simple life of the hunter-gatherer
The most noble of all quests
The hunter now bends his bow
His fingers clutching his last arrow
The predator or the prey, only one will survive
May the spirit of Amarok guide my projectile

Goesôpsiag, beautiful valley of death
You’ve swallowed so many souls and spat them out in Hell
A legacy of sorrow, an endless trail of tears
The coyotes’ lair has long been abandoned
As the years pass you by, rivers are still flowing
Taking away all of your dreams
Goesôpsiag, beautiful valley of pain
It hurts like a bad wound inflicted by a dull blade
Cast into a bottomless pit of torment
Emotions eroded like the stones in the river bed
Dreams are torn, ambitions turn into nothingness
Dig your own grave and put yourself to rest
All hope is now gone
Emptiness is all that is left
As the rivers flow to the sea
Sanity is slipping away

Doctrine Of Domination
04:02
|
|||
|
Purveyors of evil doctrine
Culture stealers
Enforcing your evil faith
Upon once peaceful tribes
You were not asked to do this
Why don't you leave us alone
We don't need your Savior
We don't want your God
Enforcers of holy lies
Culture destroyers
A spiritual dictatorship
Force-fed to our tribes
You were not asked to do this
Why don't you leave us alone
We don't need your Savior
We don't want your God
Your imaginary God
Pure evil invention
The man-made Book of Lies
A tool to serve your interests
The Sacred Whore and the Holy Cuckold
Gave birth to a bastard child
Said to have saved the world
By being bled like a hog

At War With The Spirits
05:01
|
|||
|
Strangers coming from afar
Bringing us disease and death
Soon they will meet their fate
May the spirits be with us
Brave warriors have no fear
At war with the spirits
Our young fighters don't fear their troops
We must protect our women and children
Their pillaging must be stopped
May the spirits be with us
Brave warriors have no fear
At war with the spirits
The rumbling from the horses' hooves
Is now drowned out by our war chants
The air reeks of gunpowder
And soon we will take their scalps
As the armies clash
Into a deafening chaos
Steel cuts through the flesh
Blood now taints the soil
Strangers coming from afar
To steal our game, to steal our land
Soon they will pay the price
May the spirits be with us
Brave warriors have no fear
At war with the spirits

Self-Defeat
04:30
|
|||
|
Human scum infesting Mother Earth
The filth of nature we have become
A deadly override of the ecosystems
A superior race that don't know its place
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
Human parasite sucking Mother Earth
Too much junk being manufactured
Too much land being drained dry
Planet earth is suffocating
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
The only animal to destroy its habitat
Greed and stupidity, no regard for life
Attempted matricide, fall from grace
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
Programmed obsolescence, too much waste
Overpopulation, overconsumption
Global warming, water polluting
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
Human plague infecting Mother Earth
Filthy, ignorant, condescending
Oblivious to the fact that we're a part of nature
Too much self-importance will cause our demise
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
The only animal to destroy its habitat
Greed and stupidity, no regard for life
Attempted matricide, fall from grace
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased
Programmed obsolescence, too much waste
Overpopulation, overconsumption
Global warming, water polluting
Kings of self-defeat, we will be erased

Eulogy For Mankind
09:14
|
|||
|
Ravens feasting on the corpses
Of what once was humanity
Nature is taking back what belongs to her
The master race is getting replaced
The foul stench of death fills the air
But soon the flowers will bloom again
No more plastic waste to poison the oceans
No more toxic smoke to choke the sky
The reign of man
Short but destructive
The cancer of this planet
Life can now resume
Without the relentless raping
A world free to grow

Awaken the God within
A rogue spirit set free
To purify shallow souls
With a heavy hammer and a strong arm
Roaming the icy desert
With a boiling, vengeful heart
Blizzard, like a thousand needles
Tattooing your eyes
Craving human flesh
A hunger never satisfied
All those carcasses left behind
Never to be found
Scoured and exhausted
Enter a whole new realm
Governed by vengeful hatred
For eternity
Hiding in the winterfog, no one is out of reach
Take all and leave none, your realm's a no man's land
Reigning on the permafrost, brutal terror unleashed
Take all and leave none, your realm's a no man's land
