A Rite of Passage

I see the end ahead, of the road that I've followed,
For so long I dream awake, waiting,
Now I'm ready to die.
Against the tidal waves of days coming by and always looking back to see them all falling behind.
As I suffered every day at their hands,
Preparing for my fortune that always awaited.
Is this really the life that I'm supposed to live,
Beaten, battered, lead to the slaughter.
Tearing down from the inside out,
Take me now I plead my vows.
Take me into your arms my tyrant of below,
Release your pain unto my soul.
They told me I was nothing,
Destined to fail, forever a burden.
Never to amount to anything,
An empty shell of a human being.
Destined to fucking fail.
I see the end ahead, of the road that I've followed,
For so long I dream awake, waiting,
Now I'm ready to die.
With my last breath I read my vows,
Take me now I've served under your crown,
My king.
I thank you for this gift,
Now I fade within the shadows.
Counting down the days as I fulfilled your bidding, That I vow,
Of torture and suffering, make them pay for that they claim.
I see the end ahead, of the road that I've followed,
For so long I dream awake, waiting,
Now I'm ready to die.
With my last breath I read my vows,
Take me now I've served under your crown,
I thank you for this gift,
My king.
This my rite of passage,
Take me now I'm ready to die.

Only by Blood

And from death I shall be cleansed of the pain that came with life.
Until I wake again I remain in exile of my own hell,
Until I rise again, I'll disappear into the depths.
The darkness surrounding me making it's way within,
Without remorse I open my heart.
Willingly letting the black sink into my soul.
I can feel it crawling under my skin,
Transforming, shaping a new form of myself.
I slowly become one with the dark,
No longer a light to shine through the night,
No longer sense a feeling of happiness,
Nor sense a feeling of anything.
I didn't let myself die for nothing.
Turning to the dark arts,
I make this pact in the shadows,
Flesh and spirit, sacrificial,
Torment and affliction dwells.
Bringing in the cold,
As I read what's forbidden.
Ancient hyms of a banished soul,
And with this, a dark fate is forged.
A mere ritual to become closer to path of hatred,
To be fueled of the rage that's been caged within my ribs,
Released unto the earth for them to truly see,
Feel the pain caused of their sins.
I'm now a product of the suffering they caused,
They will be the results of their consequences,
They beg to me for forgiveness,
Bow to your fucking tyrants.
It's only a matter of time before I return,
My name will be screamed at the top of their lungs.
And with your offering of blood, I will return to conquer all.

As the prophecy foretold,
I have returned to my new kingdom,
Bow down before me,
Pledge your allegiance to my throne.
The darkness is inside me making me stronger as I absorb the energy of life that surrounds me.
Leaving death in my tracks, nothing to preserve life,
Turning the brightest light into the bleakest dark.
While I was once a martyr, I am now your tyrant.
Bury the corpses of the inhabitants,
This is a promise that all who oppose me perish umongst their witnessing of my ruling.
Suffer until death.
Everything burns, so everything shall turn to ash.
Burn it all, with the waves of inferno,
Let the embers fall, raze it all to the ground.
Fear me, worship me,
Either choice you make, will lead to your wreckoning.
Fear me, worship me.
From the shadows I have risen, of a malevolent being,
Claiming the throne of the new hell, I shall reign forever.
With every fallen individual,
Their souls shall continue to feed my power.
The stench of death I will leave behind,
Will forever linger on the roads,
On this kingdom of evil, my citadel of bones.
Plagued, are the helpless,
Suffer, will the innocent.
Fear me, worship me,
Either choice you make, will lead to your wreckoning.
Fear me, worship me.
Bow down before your king,
Pledge yourself to the bringer of your agony.

Death metal/deathcore hybridization done correct! All the atmospheric passages and samples feel right in place, with great sound. Instrumentation doesn't lack as well, but the vocals could've been a little less upfront. 8.5/10

When done right, this kind of extreme death metal makes me smile and enjoy life. This does! Is it it's intention? I don't know. Either way, life is grand!

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.
