lyrics

I search the Eye for my brother's fate,
Vengeance driven, I cannot wait,
Through black seas I dare to dive,
My wrath ablaze, he won’t survive.

Eldritch evils I resist,
The hate in my heart still persists.
For my sons and Father's light
I'll make him pay, no matter the price.

I used to stand as a believer,
Damned by my faith, a marked deceiver,
My fall from grace, my legion's fate,
Has led me to this bitter state.

The Raven Lord hunts for my life,
I am ready for the coming strife,
No longer bound by the false god's lies,
Come, dear brother, let fates collide.

My talons seek your traitorous heart.
Your justice is nothing but lies from the start.
Lies? My heart bleeds for all the lives we lost.
Yet your heart is still a slave to a rotting corpse.

I shall end you at any cost!

Sparks now fly as fate weaves its dance.
A destined end, I refuse to give chance,
Brothers clash and bloodied hands,
Against fate, I shall make my stand.

The gods have blessed me, brother mine,
Their gifts have changed me, made me divine,
Potential unsealed, I am now more than thee,
For I am unchained eternally.

The sea of souls changed me too, you see,
The slaughter you schemed, a turning point to be,
Now our souls are as dark as night,
Not even vengeance can make things right.

Though you wield powers anew,
None can match the darkness in me brewed.
Justice for your crimes overdue,
Death is your fate, for all that you do.

You are blinded by all the lies you preach,
The cost of truth, its prize still in reach,
Justice will be done though our future's grim.
The truth is all, dear brother, my only hymn.

Our fates entwined; our hearts grow dim.

Betrayer!

Skies asunder, dark made flame
The raven caws nigh
Bloodened rain

Idolator! Worthless cur!
Why do we fight? What made you turn?
No! Save your breath!
I'll see you burn!

I would've called you brother during brighter days.
But your treachery must end in death's embrace.

Why must the truth demand such a high sacrifice.
Committed still, I fight and pay the price.

My claws strike with an unforgiving fury!
Your misguided wrath, by my faith and zeal, I've parried!
The heavens themselves bleed from your betrayal so great!
Yet I shall not die here for I've denied my fate!

Truth is my shield!
My zeal, my sword to fight!
I will not fall to fate
But rise with all my might!

Across the stars
For aeons evermore!
I'll hunt you down, betrayer!
And settle the score!

On our last encore, one will live no more!
