The Son of the Sun Songtext

von Therion

Warsaw!

In ancient days of Khem,
A pharaoh was praising
The sun above Amon,
Osiris, mother Isis, and Thoth.

The gods would punish the hybris of Pharaoh.
He wrapped himself in false sunshine.
He was the founding father of the only god,
But he provoked a fit of rage.

Son of the sun, it was his name.
Son of the sun, the sun will burn your wings!
Son of the sun, beware of Aton!
Son of the sun, your god will let you down!

The sphinx burst into tears,
And pyramids are shaking.
The precipice is close,
And Pharaoh is losing his faith.

Visions of madness led the pharaoh astray,
The portents were too ominous.
Until this day, his curse is still the plague of man.
We must defeat the only god!

Son of the sun, it was his name.
Son of the sun, the sun will burn your wings!
Son of the sun, beware of Aton!
Son of the sun, your god will let you down!

Apep will rise!
Apep will come!

Son of the sun, it was his name.
Son of the sun, the sun will burn your wings!
Son of the sun, beware of Aton!
Son of the sun, your god will let you down!
