The Foreshadowing Furnace

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
