The Void 04:16
There’s nothing left of what I knew in life, nor in death The stars turn around us, in an eternal dream Their sister, beginner of life, no longer exists Derelicts in the void, There’s no hope for the nine Every deity from Olympus and the Netherworld Start to show a new destination, or be vanished Forever The cries of the ones who grieve about what´s lost Try with all their will to find a way to plot Against Chaos, and it´s brutal sentence Silence and suspense are absolute But far from thinking of surrendering to such fate We are finding a way, a way to plot I don´t know (if) it´s been days or millenniums Charon is watching over us from long ago The stars turn around us, in an eternal dream Their sister, beginner of life, no longer exists Derelicts in the void, There’s no hope for the nine Everyone who has a voice Joins in one last prayer That all the gods ignore All but one

Chronos 04:58
Every star, dark and luminous Start their dance and combine in one mist A majestic being without defined shape or colour Morphs into a colossal snake With three heads: bull, man and lion Begins to answer the prayers Of those who didn´t hold any hope Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment Have been made against the will of your sons I´ll use my power over time and matter to revenge our sister, oh father Titans, all together, with their creations Light and darkness, day and night, approve rebellion They begin to answer the prayers Of those who didn´t hold any hope Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment Have been made against the will of your sons I will send every new being To a precise moment in mankind history They will direct a new destiny In the heart of humankind Without any memory of their time in death With the purpose of letting ´em show their goodness And this way save their homes and themselves Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment Have been made against the will of your sons And are a betrayal to the pact Made with man and Earth To serve the whisper of a new promise Memories are sacrificed Firey sparks and waves of flames and ice Movement becomes perpetual
3.
Rebirth 04:39
There’s a distance between time And matter that creates a body There’s an unavoidable universe Of eyes watching us Of shivers running down our spines From a cold wind The heat of two bodies together Two souls joining in darkness Within us, a tree exists Infinite times, a tree that covers All we are and were Codified by the snake Within us, a tree exists, All we are and were The snake which (rings) have our virtues written As well as our sins Within us, a tree exists The being that Gea posthumous designed Holds within the tree that will be hugged by two coiled snakes That will add and take from each other, constant dance and struggle In a perfect joint between good and evil Between knowledge’s light and mystery’s darkness Earth, Water, Wind, Fire and Ether Fire and Ether creates the recipient That holds a spirit that once was two Fire and ether, that once was two Fire! Chronos weaved a plan and we are its tools In the spiral of time every seed is planted They are the fountains that will give our ancestors a reason to live They will come to their time, as rain after a long summer The ones who will be hated or loved But not one of them will be safe from misinterpretation As mankind always use words of power To feed their egos

I was born in a world condemned to destruction What other end could our race meet? Since our first breath we’re slaves of needs that were imposed to us Needs that create frustration Happiness, such a strange concept Depending on who and when From the cradle to the grave What makes you happy could become Ashes in your mouth and stabs to your heart Happiness, such a strange concept Depending on who and when When needs were not owners Of my time nor my energy So is the pressure coming from our families Their religions, their lifestyles and moral codes Imposed on us by inertia (no wrong intended) But leaving you with a new feeling Guilt From the cradle to the grave Sin and disappointment are the most powerful chains Created by the gods
5.
There comes a day when you gain consciousness All that guilt, burden in your back, to limit you Isolated from said life To give themselves to the lives designed By the mind architects It is then when you look around And start doubting everything you were taught How can the world be Standing on such rotten foundations Eight billion pathetic beings In a constant race against Themselves and their mortal fate Isolated from said life... For the wealthy and powerful to step Upon the already oppressed Their right, the law of life Filling people with repressed anger Unleashing selfishness as a doctrine And hate for the odd ones Isolated from said life... Millions of hungry tears Dying in the darkness Of anonymity A desert of sterile spirits I hated the world since I met it
6.
Seasons went one after another As people go by through our lives Leaving a fragile trail In our personality until time It can’t be explained to reason how we feel That we all come from the same beginning Our brain, easily mined by the program of our environment What’s mentally force-fed to us I searched for the way to open A window to the world beyond the world Spiritual Awakening “Since ancient times, there are rites loaded with mysticism and alchemy, that enable you to be transported to a threshold of the world beyond the world.” I saw two beings equally human I was conscious of their paths and tales I was conscious of the ones I had been The ones I would be I saw two beings with opposite lives That blended inside my chest A warm feeling ran through my spine Senses started to show what’s real I shall destroy it, if I cannot change it The energy that forms us in its divine combination Withholds an infinite memory of everything we were The energy that forms us in its divine combination The instructions manual of my duty in this world (in my case) I shall destroy it, if I cannot change it I saw two beings equally human I was conscious of their paths and tales The instructions manual I shall destroy it, if I cannot change it I shall destroy it

The Nine 05:33
They were always a mystery And their words were plagued with riddles Hidden behind a speech That tried to reconcile mankind with its essence They appeared in front of me Knowing their effort had been in vain Despite having had a chance The mind and heart of humans were infected (With the virus of deceit) There was no time for forgiveness (Nor to save our society) Doomed to collapse, there couldn´t be anymore Eye-opening sermons Many of them were murdered By those who they were trying to save Their message of love to each other And to mother earth collided with their egoism And built the foundations of hate Against the different And the banning of free will The mind and heart of humans were infected (With the virus of deceit) There was no time for forgiveness (Nor to save our society) Doomed to collapse, there couldn´t be anymore Eye-opening sermons The ones who destroyed their message took advantage of Their power to use it (as a) mind controlling tool The mind and heart of humans are infected There is no time to save the society The time to purge this virus has come There can´t be anymore eye-opening sermons With the express desire and consent of time The whole universe´s tongues chant joining their voices to mine “Personification of darkness and chaos, who fills all the nooks and holes of the world.”

Erebo, Nemesis, covered seas and mountains in minutes Humankind, broke down, started killing each other Thinking the attack was being made by their own enemies Wars destroyed as many lives as plagues and famine They didn´t get to see the world after the cataclysm Even many of those who stood by the light of the flame My days (are) coming to an end (in this body) I managed to save many treasures (not of gold) But of knowledge, of our past as a race The poison that filled the air, water and earth Although transparent, will take long to disappear Will go on as the wind and rain cover every place Cleansing with vengeful devastation the prints of the past times x2 Armies rape and kill their kin Survival doesn´t depend on them Others in the depths of the hills live Not knowing all the sadness that floods our lives Machines haven´t worked for long now (and quite possibly) All the letters and numbers inside of them (will be lost forever) The flame written in paper and stone (my legacy) Will last, is what we were, what we are, What we will be Erebo Nemesis Cover me
