I am the reaper
The one who crawls through the crimson mud
The worms in the rotten flesh of God
A thorn in the eye of Yahweh
You'll see my face in the locust swarm
That plagues the wheat
In the storm you will hear my jubilation
For the acts of Cain
When the tares flood the fields
When the raven devours the dove
The immaculate whore will open her throat
And a manna of blood will quench our thirst
Cursed is the fruit of your womb
Now and at the hour of your death
I am the reaper
The one who crawls through the crimson mud
The worms in the rotten flesh of God
A thorn in the eye of Yahweh
It was your children
Who raped the angels
It was your daughters
Who fucked with their father
And it was your disciple
Who denied you as a father
We shed our flesh
On the pyre of Tophet
The valley of Hinnom awaits
Hosanna Gehenna!
