Through the infernal portal Past the final circle Beyond forbidden dimensions A magnificent treasure awaits I alone have deciphered The beautiful secret The hidden mystery of The key to untold atrocity An ancient weapon Forged in cosmic birth Channeling the radiant essence Of the primordial Fire Embarking upon Thought impossible journey The trials of Baphomet Ruination for naive fools Yet pure is my resolve Erudite cosmic wisdom Pitch black obsidian soul At the gate I stand fearless Preparing the ritual Awaiting the trial In total silence Eldritch current Consumes the chamber In agonizing pain Enveloped in fire What have I done? My mind unleashed From the weak human shell Awareness of thought and being United - at last As I descend into the majestic landscape Pillars of fire and blood Stretch to the infinite horizon A labyrinth beyond comprehension Where time stands still Have long I've navigated these passages Impossible to tell Love, compassion and empathy fade Like a dream of my life before death As I seize my destiny I turn to those who stand in my path A spiritual weapon Forged in cosmic birth My disembodied hand Grips it with triumphant rage Victorious I rise The heavens are cleaved Ragged, infected wounds Bleeding and helpless Transcendent carnage Boundless wrath Conquering realms even higher I have yet only begun

Reality mangled by trans-dimensional vortex Astral projection into deep space and time The inner sanctum unveiled to me Embraced by the eternal cosmic night I navigate corridors unseen Beyond your comprehension Beyond your feeble imagination The sacred symbol Hidden from light Embedded in the cosmic fabric Penteract manifold of power Omnipresent, Omnitemporal Hyper-dimensional structure Emblem of dark dominion Fear and awe grip my soul As a wormhole swirls beneath me Fractal dimensions ebb and flow Unfolding upon themselves Portals to murky dark realms Euphoric delight swells within me Realizing the infinite potential Outside of time I explore this maze The symbol is not mine But it works through me I take my place Not in the heavens But higher, among the stars Mighty hordes at my command Ravage each realm before me The beautiful endless dark ocean of space Fills my soul with ice cold serenity As the starlight dwindles The pitch black void Is calling me... Aeons from now The ages of stars has passed Entire galaxies ravaged The hordes driven by my will To every corner of existence Skies black as the cosmic night The symbol is all there is And all there ever will be

The desires of men Weak and feeble flesh Defile the spirit With pursuit of mortal power Wealth of a dozen empires Flesh of a thousand whores Might of a million armies For which men would sell their souls Far I have traveled Into the darkest depths Untold atrocities I commit Under dim candlelight I strive to piece together Riddles in ancient tongues Tales of wisdom across time Concepts long forgotten Tomes of forbidden knowledge Hidden from the light Buried under aeons of dust Though my body is weary My mind never rests The darkness has taken me Together at last Nebulous black forms Haunt my sleep Voices that once frightened me Now bring me comfort Guides on my journey To the road less traveled Unlocking the secret To attain equality with God Silence is golden They open that which is closed The lost word keeps the secret Fate is not the same for all In Vain I am enriched by death The disciple surpasses the master Virtue lies defeated From darkness comes light One by one The riddles are revealed The shapes that haunt my dreams Emerge from the moving shadows With horror I realize their faces are mine Eyes flickering with fire spoke inside my mind “Come Mortal. The time is soon at hand. Claim your true destiny and bring balance to the plan. Sacrifice your flesh to us and pass through the crimson gate. When your thoughts are unleashed the carnage will be great!” With a silent word it is done A dark chill spreads Through every living being A harbinger of despair All is lost Eternal victory of darkness
