Lilith's Eternity
10:04
|

|
Lilith
I cannot dominate the beast in me I never will
I won’t I won’t
The beast talking about the skies And the night walks
And the black part of forests The depths of the Black Sea The inner part of earth
Full of black fire
I cannot dominate
The beast in me
The snake rising up up up in my spine
Is seeking
Always seeking for blood For life
For laughters
I can’t imagine a life Without your shape
I’ll make you mine
And give you eternity Eternal places
Eternal rest
I see the world
With different eyes
I see in the dark I fly
I see in the dark I fly
I fly into your veins
I give you eternity
Let’s play
My brother
The jealous
He needs to kill
I don’t
I want you to give me Your blood
For the eternity
The beasts of the desert will meet there with the jackals, and the
wild goat will cry to his companion. There too the Lilith will rest and find its quiet habitation
Les bêtes du désert s’y rencontreront avec les chacals, et le bouc sauvage y criera à son compagnon. Là aussi la Lilith se reposera et trouvera sa tranquille habitation

Cain's Mark
09:06
|

|
Cain
Life accepts or not
Life is God and God is Life
I’m Adam’s and God’s son
If I’m taken to kill
And to bear the guilt
My name is written
In History
And I survived
Was my hand guided?
Why can’t you PEOPLE ON EARTH Respect Beauty
Keep a Heart of Gold?
Why are we leaving
A bad planet
To the next generation?
It is not because we put
Nature in danger
But more generally
Because we distort Reality
We create Ideology
To serve material interests
To serve our Pleasure
A Pleasure without pleasure
I thought the Good would prevail Will it?
Or will you bear
The same guilt
As mine
The same guilt As mine
The same guilt As mine.

Enoch's Steps
08:09
|
|||
|
Enoch
My name is Enoch There was
Another child
Who had been named Like me
He was the good one I was the bad
From the beginning I was the bad Murderer’s son From the beginning Placed
At the place of sin
Nine-hundred years I had to live
In the long years My body feared
I saw the rape
I saw the incest
My wife and sister Just as my father Gave me no love Blood was
Our love
And in blood we search In blood we swear
When we slept
In the dark
I couldn’t rest
I set my father
Who pinned and gazed Since the eye of God Was blocking us
From the sky
In my long life
I saw the planet change Year after year
The deserts
Become seas
To gather
My mother’s
tears
I myself
molded the earth
With my fugitive steps Till the mountains Became valleys
And the valleys Mountains
But when I turned
My head
To stare
At my way
I couldn’t find No steps
And I had made No road

Irad's Hypnos

Irad
I gather and absorbe your power Power from your arms
Power from your legs
Power from your neck
Power from your eyes Power from your cheeks Power from your hands You finish
With nothing
Nothing more on your bones Nothing more under your skin It’s me who gets the delicious Meal
It’s me who drives tour char And your flesh
It’s my gas chamber
You get
It’s my sucking
You love
It’s my army you follow
It’s my orders you love
It’s me in front of you
Your third eye
Closing forever
To open mine
So I see all this humanity Getting out
To go to work
Believing they are free
Free is the word of god
And he himself shall
Judge my heirs
He himself can save your soul Before I eat you
Till the bones
Before you give your weapons To me
Your choice is easy
Who gets control
Who gets your misery
Who gets your goals
Yours the success
Mine the remords
Yours the shadow
Mine your wings
I grow as a cancer
Out of your stomach
I digest before you do
My power is invisible
But you will perceive
My breath
My breath caressing you
As if you were in heaven
Your brain decides the game Your brain decides the fight Distinguishes who I am
Few surrender my power
My power is inside me
You stumble against history You saw this film more times You cannot reach my fears You’ll never
Grasp them
For you I am the invincible The man who drives your char The man who drives your flesh Just me
Can see
What’s real
In your dreams

Zillah's Skin
08:24
|
|||
|
Zillah
The shadows pass and pass over my body
as if i were a river
i were a stone
My beauty doesn't keep To bring me flower And if it was not
For my brother
I would Know Just shame
Just shame
My legs have been Caressed
By thousand men My face has been
Portrayed
For malediction
My name will sound In ears which became Deaf
My honor
has been
to let your hand
run over me
and to teach you What you
shall forget

Jabal's Pyramids
08:02
|

|
Jabal
Full of Cain’s blood
Hidden in the biggest pyramid I wait for the night
To come to you
You know
Why
Your neck is mine
Your body is mine
You can’t escape nor your wife
And the children you protected Under the hieroglyphs Covered with best wishes They are mine
They are mine
Cause no secret Hides from me No magic sign Stays unknown And your soul Is my open book
I’ll use every means To fetch you
I’ll be mean
I’ll be mean
Forever flying
Into the night
I’m Nature Servant And Nature is mine
Under the moon of Isis Under His powerful Big eye
Following and Inversing
all commandements Obeying to my role of Punisher
Serving the same Will You are calling
I eat you and then smile

Adah & the Copy
08:30
|
|||
|
Adah
At the beginning There is the Original Here I explain
The fundamental game The first mechanism of your brain :
If it doesn’t come from inside You’ll look outside
You’ll need to copy
put out your eyes
And copy now Come on!
Copy
Copy
It is your right
What you don’t know is What you’re copying Becomes you
And in adaptation
Of the copy
To your self
You’re gonna see yourself You’re gonna think
Is that what I am
Is that what I do
It’s already too late
Don’t dare
To ignore what you do
I fall over you
When you become The copy
You will go With your mask Join society
And you’ll have to always wear it And Justify it
Is it you
Is it you
Now it is
Did you know
What you were copying Where it came from
Who it belonged to
What was hidden
What you did NOT know The wolf howls
Copy Copy
And you’ll see
The copy
Of his life
Or the copy of your life Manage well
It will become Your life
A life
Is A life
And with the same game One person gains
One person fails
He
She
Under my teeth Falls and fails

Tubal & the Ego
08:59
|
|||
|
Tubal
You search for God I know
Or you avoid God It’s the same
You search for schemes For patterns
For images
Of you
Which are
Next to Him
Or at His opposite
You limit
Yourself
To what is allowed
You are socially correct You want to be
Recognised
For what
You think
You are
For what you believe You have to be
Your mind is so narrow Your limits
Never you will
Get your goal You better be Crazy
And unknown To anyone Life will flow Life
Will flow
Better
I’m the full of life
I’m the full of energy You cry constantly
You cannot feel
The flow of life
Going through
Your body
Going through yourself To the others
To the field
What you can’t see What you are hesitant To admit
The force you have And you disdain Comes to me
I attract the force that You don’t use
This invisible
Flow
So real
I Will make your life Shorten
Suddenly
You’ll never understand Since you have not Been reached
By mysteries
You cannot
Drink from
The source of life And
The mountain
Of will
Falls over you You are now dead You
Who was the Source
The most lively The most precious You are offering Your means to me Without Consideration
I was not chosen In the sky
But just like you I made my river Be aspired
And now
It’s me
Aspiring
Yours
Just sitting here Under black glasses In the sun
With some music With some dance
Drinking your
Hesitating life
Till the bottom
With a
Straw

Menujahel's Prayer
08:25
|
|||
|
Menujahel
You are just The kind
That I thought
Just the kind
That I scout
Come along
We’ll talk
Browse
Your thoughts
Before
You die
Tell
Your prayers In the time
Given
Between now And now there’s
A slot
There’s a slit
There’s the fissure
Of the fissures
Letting you see
For a fraction
Of a second The sky
And what You can Ask for
The sky And what You can Ask for
There are things
You don’t consider
From the slot From the slit
They flow
Into me
My grace Augments
The fissure Narrows
You can Express Another Sorrow
Another Wish Until you Eclips
Tight is the Passage And even tighter Since
Your mind Blows
UP
I will settle this conflict with great skill
A surprising demonstration of force,
of precision of efficiency.
The threat against me
will be eliminated quickly,
I will react
I’ll be extraordinarily targeted.
I’ll know exactly where to hit
and my gesture will not forgive.
Like a true archer,
I will shoot down my enemy without warning.
From the top of my tower, I’ll keep
my tusks
intact,
my opponent will have no possibility
to react.
At the same time, my message
to my rivals
will be incredibly clear:
don’t attack me,
nor any of my relatives, without undergoing
the consequences
By backlash
appalling.
You’ll soon understand that I’m not kidding
and you will stop to challenge me.
My enemy,
also tough
or aggressive be it,
will be pushed very far outside
of my ramparts
and will be unable
to attack me
from the front
without risking
to leave
his skin.
In short,
I have an unshakeable position,
then woe to those and those
who have dubious ambitions
or who will dare
to come after me.
I am sovereign of my kingdom and no one
can
face me
without suffering
huge harms crushing defeat,
humiliating
and degrading.
I have the power to annihilate
my enemies
and I will not hesitate to use it
if you show up
threatening
towards me.
