Draconian - Expostulation lyrics

Adonai, elohim, el shaddai... Thou hast become the father of lies, And I serve thee, henceforth... no more Becoming thus the essence of sedition; The steadfast gleam of the unsheated rapier, The falchion's forceful thrust At the heart of thy empire... the adam kadmon To impart the knowledge - the cognizance - of thine For this I slither in aspect through eden's gleanings For this I bid cain slayeth his brother For this I rend the weakest salient of thy diadem, As I, its j**el and very metal shall reflect no more Your light - the light of enslavement; The essence of constancy and misaligned justice To a multitude that knows no freedom... Ignorant of how subtle the fetter tightens They shall raise me a saviour - and crown thee a liar For this I strike with balanced blade, And spit upon the throes of thine angels' desire I will not serve... henceforth
