The Eye of Ra

(the prophet)

Hear me hear me
People of the sand
Let me tell you
Of the one who wears the mask
One of many deceivers
Centuries of godlike tyrants
Your offerings are made to
Temples full of hoax and lies.

Listen people
Time to arise!
I'm gonna tell you
It is time to break the chains
Of superstitious slavery
Your king's just greed and violence
A vision in deep desert
A golden light to blind your eyes.

Don't prey the jester don't call him god
Don't build his glory with your own blood.

(the dictator)

[Chorus:]
Who's the fool under my sun?
Who's the preacher? Who's the one?
They're my servants they're my sons
They need my guide to sail in time
In eternal night i am their only light.

(the messiah)

Unbeliever! Damn this one!
Don't tell gods how to choose a son!
Men be faithful save your souls
There's no sky to ask for peace
When god is peace and god has been denied.

(the prophet)

Don't prey the jester don't call him god
Don't build his glory with your own blood.

(the dictator the messiah)

What will enlighten the deepest dark
When you will blind the eye of ra?

[Chorus]

Children of the nile
Born in a dry land
By the will of god
From the tears he shed.

Sons of the divine
Dust we're in his hand
Don't provoke his wrath
Praise him do not stand.

(the dictator the messiah)

Face me sinner challenge god
Prove my power spill my blood!
Let me see how brave you are!
Anubi's waiting place your heart
Contemplate me and be prepared to die.

(the prophet)

Don't you fear him
Look at his face!
Is this blood here
Flowing out of his veins?
Time to choose new divinity
Save from decay your future
Stand up and pray no longer
'cause the time has come to rise!

(the dictator the messiah)

What will enlighten the deepest dark
When you will blind the eye of ra?

[Chorus]

Children of the nile
Born in a dry land
Could it be that god
Never saw this sand?

Sons of the divine?
Slaves of a false myth?
Just behind that mask
The truth is at hand.

(the sailor)

Listen to the prophet the words he said
Leave onto the dunes the chains of faith
Rise against the power see his face
Tear down the walls and build a new age.

(the dictator the messiah)

Don't believe the liar
Don't you waste this reign
The fool is simply leading you in centuries of pain.

(the prophet)

Follow me follow your destiny
Fulfill the fate be the right race.

[Chorus]

Not a god
Only flesh and blood
Not a god
Only flesh and blood
Not a god
Only flesh and blood.

(the prophet)

Since that fire many centuries are gone
Humankind keeps on turning on the wheel of time
They're about to reach the sky but they
They don't even know how to fly.
