Sparks fly and fire licks my wings Tied to this wood--I was born for burning I rebelled against the flock Declined to submit to slavery As a token from my legions of the chosen few I reveal the secrets to the world's most famous forgery As flames devour my skin Flesh melting--peeling off My days as a northbound entity Are outnumbered and have come to an end I will never be laid to rest But be free from oppression Those of my kin--the black flame Those of my sin--hail my name Those of us that have been given eyes to see Will never be laid to rest but be free From oppression In this hour I finally separate Carnal knowledge from divine will In this hour I finally separate Myself from your tyranny Still our enemies will keep hiding In the shadows with betrayal against reason But with my reprisal I shall endure And uncover the magnitude of this treason I will arise from perdition And let my presence known I will author a new era And have my Beast shown My stigma is of damnation I am from beyond your God
