plundering the villages
festering chaos
butchering my enemies
purging in the name of war
watch as my skin
it is turning white
adorned with the ashes of my family that i failed to safe
all because of ares’ betrayal
arriving at the shrine
temple of athena
butchering the innocent
bloodlust
ares
destroy my enemies
and take
my soul
watch as my skin
it is turning white
adorned with the ashes of my family that i failed to safe
all because of ares' betrayal
the oracle had warned of setting foot inside Athena’s temple
but blind with rage i did not think to heed her warning
i slaughtered every living thing that crossed my sight
just to realize that I had killed my wife and child
watch as my skin
it is turning white
adorned with the ashes of my family that i failed to safe
all because of ares’ betrayal
bloodlust
ares
destroy my enemies
and take
my soul
now call me the ghost
ghost of sparta
now call me the ghost

Pegasus

|

|
Part the veil, tear through the clouds revealing the island of creation
(only to be ) reached on wings
the fabric of time, controlled by those who decide your fate
Infinite flame, gracing his blackened wings
brought ever closer to the sisters of fate
Gaia send forth this steed
return to the ancient, the titan god of storm
behold typhon the titan in the mountain
he snares our wings, entrapped within a fist of stone
behold kratos, the spartan of the mountain,
he's freed our wings, entrapped within a fist of stone
pegasus, son of poseidon
fly to the island of creation
carrying the spartan
ascending to the heavens
taking flight with blackened strides,
approaching riders are in sight
hulking bodies of a lion, with ghastly razor claws,
sharpened beaks, large in size, come to tear our flesh from hide
resisting all opposition, bringing the wrath of a spartan god
the dark rider now approaches, the general of the winged beast fleet
entangled within the razor claws of the enemy, it brings end
fallen to the unseen grave, surely a scene to mark the end
curse the spartan this did not,now the dark rider slew to (slew to) slew to rot
pegasus, son of poseidon
fly to the island of creation
carrying the spartan
ascending to the heavens

Icarus
05:42

go back, go back warrior
there is no passage here
turn back, turn back warrior
you will not make it here
icarus the son of daedalus
daedalus created the wings that
icarus wears on his back in an
attempt to fly towards the sun but the
heat’s too much igniting the feathers
in the end the wax did not hold out
icarus descending in free fall
straight into the depths that are hades
and now this brave young man is plummeting below the earth
to be indefinitely trapped inside the underworld
i try to fly into the sky
when i reach the sun i will be done
icarus was over ambitious
ending up in the underworld
where torment and insanity greet him
decades spent with working on new wings
finally succeeding in his quest
managing to escape from this hell that
held him down for far too long now
on to the sisters of fate
you will die white warrior
this fate is mine alone
the sisters of fate will grant me an audience
i try to fly into the sky
when i reach the sun i will be done

Challenge Of Poseidon
04:08
|
|||
|
sacrificed soldier granting entry
deep within pandoras walls
cries of mercy fall on deaf ears
as a demigod brings forth death
fuel for this ordeal, is their demise
(a) divine gift, keeps me alive
diving past, dead warriors who’ve failed the task
but this trial has just begun
we are not without mercy
Blessed with our gifts if you're worthy
tortures to endure tested by strength, to retrieve the trident and venture forth
unexplored halls lie deep inside, forever serving tombs to those within
we are not without mercy
Blessed with our gifts if you're worthy
never see the light of day
Lightning in my grasp
Lightning to smite my enemies
Challengers before me
torn, limb from limb
Hidden blades,crushing walls,
none but the worthy shall survive
Forward to gain his might,
challenge of the ocean god
fuel for this ordeal, is their demise
the flooded passage, I did survive
enchanted sand, a gift from the olympians
to oppose death as i reach my goal
we are not without mercy
stray on the rings of pandora

Desert Of Lost Souls

|
wandering through this desert of lost souls
seeking my retribution
guided by mischievous sirens
i search for a titan
wander alone
this desert of lost souls
on the back of mighty chronos i will find resolution
to kill ares I need the box of pandora
wander alone
this desert of lost souls
alone
lost souls

born, a messenger, son of zeus
a servant of mount olympus, a guide to the underworld
altering your perceptions of all reality
a messenger of hades, with speed he will see you dead
fear his spear
the end is drawing ever near
i was born, a messenger, son of zues
a willing servant to the gods
a guide to the underworld
the messenger of death
fear his spear
the end is drawing ever near
now you're time has finally come,
peeling back your innocence
bringing you before his masters concieved for your arrogance.
now you're time has finally come,
to peel back your innocence
bringing you before his masters concieved for your arrogance.
seek your revenge
waste his, breathe away, waste his breathe away,
for destruction hes caused, with his immortality
gods of the battlefield
grant me strength, to crush the will of my enemy
superhuman endurance, and immortallity
power conjuring elements at thee
superhuman speed, but you can't escape
try as you might, but you can't be saved
in my grasp
tormented by my blades
weaponless, you beg for your life
death will not be spared this time, oh
with severed limbs, you waste away

Prometheus

Risen, to live another day
only to be fed upon by the great white bird of prey
nchained to the hand of great typhon
tormented for centuries, can this ever be undone
behold the fires of olympus
for flame brought to man, now bare the mark of shame
you will be (devoured as you wake)
betraying the gods, just a bitter mistake
you can't catch a rest as you bleed out night and day,
the hunger of the eagle, insatiable, here to stay
ghost of sparta hear my plea
cast into the fire is my only way
placed, in infinite chain, held before the finger of the great titan
typhon of the mountain, a prisoner in his clutch
lost all track of time, does it even matter when you've died a thousand times?
oh to wither away, for all eternity,
"please end me"
cast into the fire is the only way
"cannot fade away, to the gods I am a slave"
forever cursed by the kindness iv'e spared on man
end this mysery
tormented for centuries!
is there solace in my wake?
to the draw the last breathe that i will take
burnt
in fire
erase this curse from tearing flesh!
my desire
ghost of sparta set me free
oh
set me free
set me free
Risen, to live another day
only to be fed upon by the great white bird of prey
enchained to the hand of great typhon
tormented for centuries, can this ever be undone
behold the fires of olympus
for flame brought to man, now bare the mark of shame

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.

You know when a song's chorus or hook just really hits the spot, right in the pocket? This album is 45 minutes of that. 🤘

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis.
