I Eannatum of Lagash Lord of Sumer and Akkad Son of Akhurgal Descended from the seed of Ningursu Subjugator of foreign lands Made war upon Umma Sanctioned by the gods I Eannatum Like a fierce storm wind I unleashed the tempest I stretched forth my clenched fist With spear and blades of copper Advanced with chariot and phalanx Like a fierce storm wind I unleashed the tempest I Eannatum Lion of Lagash I had been given strength by Enlil To lay slaughter upon the soldiers of Umma Though struck by arrow through the eye I smote the Ummites slaying them by the thousands When they fled the bloodied battlefield We cut them down We trampled the helpless beneath our feet We crushed their skulls We fed their corpses to the vultures We cut them down We fed their corpses to the vultures Unleash the tempest! I Eannatum Lion of Lagash Born of the seed of Ninngursu And fed at the breast of Ninhursaga Like a fierce storm wind I unleashed the tempest I did pile into heaps the corpses of the sons of Umma And did rejoice in the suffering of my enemies As vultures flew overhead I Eannatum of Lagash Like a fierce storm wind I unleashed the tempest Like a fierce storm wind

We live in a desert of darkness and despair But there is a promised land waiting for us Of enlightenment Unobtainable As long as there are any left who hold us back The black earth must be purged It must be wiped clean That the elite among us May enter the golden age Ruthlessly and unrelenting Slaughter subjugate and enslave Wage a war of savage conquest Unify the two lands He who endures Mandates our divine right The golden age belongs to the elite We who are willing to cleanse the black earth Unite the two lands under our dominion Horus hath made war upon the usurper set They who emergeth from the swamp He bindeth their heads with rope He stampeth his foot upon the impotent He smiteth the defeated with his mace He smasheth the heads of the fallen There is a promised land waiting for us Of enlightenment We've got to cleanse the black earth The black earth must be purged It must be wiped clean That the elite among us Can bring about the golden age Purify! Two lands! Bring about the golden age Purged! Wiped clean! Bring about the golden age

Striking from beyond the tomb Arisen from dust We cast forth our seed Across endless oceans of time Wielding divine weapons Of interstellar destruction We utter the words of power Unspoken in uncounted millennia Overlords of the black earth Possessors of the inextinguishable flame At the darkened gates Spirits of fire crossover Virile and unrelenting To thrust forward across the dark abyss The imperishable black flame Risen and renewed as Ra Emergent from the netherworld Undying We shall not perish nor be denied We are a deathless curse Unleashed again upon this world Overlords of the black earth Possessors of the imperishable flame Spirits of fire

The unknowable That which lies beyond the sight of humankind A promise of the transmigration of souls A chance to live again Reincarnate Incarnate We have always feared The immutable cycles of birth and death The dead never return to tell us If we indeed live again Lok-Nar! Yet sometimes the dead return Appearing to us in dreams But they never speak Of what they have seen All die The dead do not return Lok-Nar! It is a mercy That we are ignorant of the horrors that await us all All die The dead do not return In truth We know not if our priests lie to us We ourselves cannot read the texts The words of truth are closed to us The cults of Ra and Osiris are in opposition Contradiction and confusion is what they sell us All die the dead do not return

The true gods of the desert are dark and bloody Remember my words as they lurk unseen Shunning the light of Ra Before you die you'll know the real gods They of unchecked power Insidious, who drink of our souls yet remain unseen Emboldened by dusk Shunning the light of Ra Shunning the light of Ra We remain unaware For they are ever murmuring Lulling our minds With insistent whispers Which we do not hear We do not see As they slither amongst us Taking from us that which do not understand The true gods of the desert Who hail from forgotten worlds Across inhuman gulfs Of the vast infinite depths of blackness Who were born on frozen planets encircling cold black suns Brooding beyond the light Beyond the light of any stars Before you die you'll come realize The mind shattering truth Of the unnameable ones to whose reality grants no earthly likeness Whose blackness moves from shadow to shadow Shifting shape and form in the absence of light Emboldened by dusk Shunning the light of Ra

It is written Amenti is a place of stupor and decay Devoid of light Wherein is collected every creature Gods and men great and small Escaped by neither the young nor the old It is written There was a time when there was no death When the God Temu alone existed Death became necessary to continue his existence After breath had left his body It is written The fertile lands of the living Are merely the antechamber to the netherworld The earth only a temporary dwelling place The true home is the underworld which awaits us It is written The god with the face of a dog The eyes of a man Who feedeth on the dead Who watches at the lake of fire He who waits to devour the newly arrived dead The god which swalloweth hearts And voideth filth Who remains unseen The true home is the underworld which awaits us The true home is the underworld which awaits us all
