lyrics

In my journey through the village
I witnessed the degradation of human potential
In a perennial surrender
Underneath the meridian sun
Shadows remain, coerced
A people-driven deep
Vague remnants of their former selves
Lay within those rotting shells
Veiled are the thoroughfares
Convoluted
As petals emanate the choir arose

A day to revel will soon become
A fitting end of flames
To the fields of opium
And for the lost bloodlines
That have forgone
In their honor
We beset upon
The fire lotus pantheon

The procession of the virtuous one
An effigy of servitude
Those gowns, roseate

A day to revel will soon become
A fitting end of flames
To the fields of opium
And for the lost bloodlines
That have forgone
In their honor
We beset upon
The fire lotus

(solo)

Pantheon

Through the terrains calm breath
Though in the allure a mastery is formed
That substance a cowardice grasp
Reformation
A chronological revolt is at hand

A day to revel will soon become
A fitting end of flames
To the fields of opium
And for the lost bloodlines
That have forgone
In their honor
We beset upon
The fire lotus pantheon

Redemption of our people
Our time for dominion
Redemption of our people
Our time for dominion is now
