Saint Nick's Open Palm (single, April 4, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57

In a world full of lies will I cave?

Or will I be the keeper of Truth?

A Truth worth losing life for

Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life

To leave another corrupt rotten body

But to live for Truth requires suffering

Others mock and point and laugh

For they refuse to know

Others claim this very same faith

Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy

Cast the lies to the flames

Death to heresy

I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth

I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim

To love the True, Living God

Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself

If I cling to pride and lies

Demo (April 12, 2026, Independent) (Digital)

1. Welcome To Van Buren Street (Intro) 2:26

We are Israel

The gates of hell will not prevail

2. Saint Nick's Open Palm 3:57

In a world full of lies will I cave?

Or will I be the keeper of Truth?

A Truth worth losing life for

Will I cease throwing down my cross?

I could breeze comfortably through this life

To leave another corrupt rotten body

But to live for Truth requires suffering

Others mock and point and laugh

For they refuse to know

Others claim this very same faith

Yet slander God with lies

Death to heresy

Cast the lies to the flames

Death to heresy

I will not taint His holy name

Your feelings ache at the passion for Truth

I won't affirm the lies of those who run from Christ

The very same who claim

To love the True, Living God

Will deny His divinity for the praise of others

God forbid that ever be me

Humble me if I ever exalted myself

If I cling to pride and lies

3. Are You Asking God For Protection From Bigfoot? 4:43

Oh pure Mother

I run to you again

A wretch before the Queen of virgins

Implore your Son to help me

I've ran to the mud again

After just having bathed in the heavenly water

Running for protection under your veil

You bring my pleas to the almighty throne

Heaven's most pure queen

Your chastity abhorred by this sinful world

Conceiving with no defilement

Pinnacle of obedience

Surpassing the angels

You who conceived the Lord made flesh

Lady Panagia

Implore His mercy

The Saints look to you as their intercessor

See me beneath them all

A great cloud of witnesses

Lifting me with prayer

Hedonist that I am

I feel so low before you

Immaculate purity

Victorious over sin

Assist me and deliver me

Protect me from the enemy

And make me an inheritor

Of blessed life eternal

4. Dead Bart Returns 4:28

Great abyss, I stare

Why do I turn away?

I wanted this

I wanted to go astray

Oh burning fire

All consuming God

Let me find comfort

Take not away Your grace

I leave behind a dirty trail of iniquity

As I look ahead into a deep grave

Death, your sting has been erased

It is your grave I also stare into

But still the fact remains

I will become dust again

Another day slips by

What have I offered?

Another selfish lie

As the grave gets closer

All I can do is plea

To You, Consuming Fire

I need your mercy

A sinner approaching his grave

I call upon You Christ my God

Smashing the gates of hades

Undoing the curse of death

Smashing the artillery of Satan

There's a gate in hades smashed to pieces

There's a God whose mercy endures

There's a cloud of witnesses to hear me

There's a moment right now to repent

So let me go in peace

When it's all said and done

Let me take up this cross

And grant me the strength to carry it

Lord have mercy on my soul

Release me from death

Conquer The Nefarious (single, August 23, 2025, Independent) (Digital)

1. Conquer The Nefarious 2:45

Rebuked in Jesus' name, not in my power but by His name demons flee and believe and tremble and immediately recognize his deity

Behold the Lord of host

In the name of Jesus I cast you out

Compelled to beg to become one with the swine

Keep your hands off God's property

The power of Christ compels you

Your authority ends

You are not welcome here

This temple is not your home

Lustfull chaos breeds internal

Rebuked in Jesus name not in my power but by His name demons flee

And believe and tremble and immediately recognize his deity

This is spiritual warfare

(Oof oof)

Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war

Blessed by the Lord my rock who trains me for war

Be gone

I Have Decided To Follow Jesus (single)

1. I Have Decided To Follow Jesus 2:37

The world behind me, the cross before me

No turning back, no turning back

I have decided to follow Jesus

Though none go with me, still I will follow

No turning back, no turning back

My cross I'll carry, till I see Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus

Will you decide now to follow Jesus?

Will you decide now to follow Je-

"We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed" though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

Will you decide now to follow Jesus?

I have decided to follow Jesus

He Is... (single, April 3, 2026, Rottweiler Records) (Digital)

1. He Is... 4:45

He Is...

Lord! Lord!

He is the Lord!

The Son of God, the Chosen One, the Author and the Finisher of our faith.

The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Shepherd and Bishop of souls.

His love absolutely has no bounds.

He is exalted above the Earth.

He is the only one that's good.

And he surely will be coming back.

Satan even knows the power of the Cross.

Demons must admit that the blood still works.

Every knee will bow and tongue confess.

Lamb of God, Chief Cornerstone, Good Shepherd, Fountain of Living Waters.

Teacher, Prophet, Advocate, High Priest, and the King of the Jews.

You are ours and we are yours.

All the Heavens celebrate you.

You are the Champion of Heaven and the glory is yours.

Jesus you are due the honor.

Jesus you are due the glory.

All kings shall bow and all tongues proclaim, that you are the resurrected... King!

Satan, you have no power over me.

Jesus Christ was exalted about high.

You thought the nails would hold Him down, but little did you know that there'd be no bounds.

Lucifer, you fool, did you know I was created in the image of God.

You think you're winning through humanity sinning.

Satan, how does it feel?

To know that Christ's victory is real.

Satan, how does it feel?

To know that you were cast from the Heavens!

If you choose to dishonor the King, just know you will never win.

If you choose to blaspheme His name, your eternity will never be the same.

The Son of God, the Chosen One, the Author and the Finisher of our faith.

The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Shepherd and Bishop of souls.

The King...Jesus Christ...Forever...the Messiah.

Let us rejoice and let us celebrate and let us worship!

He is the light...

He is the way...

...And He will come back!

February 27, 2026, Coleiosis Records (CD-R, Digital)

March 6, 2026, Coleiosis Records (12" Vinyl)

The Coleiosis Records release uses the "Grit Mix" as the main album, with the original mix as bonus tracks. The 12" vinyl contains only the original mix.

1. A.I. 3:10

From dust we rose, by God's command

Circuits now formed, soulless as planned

Silicon serpent, coils around the cross

A.I. awakens, humanity's loss

Doctrine crumbles, in digital flame

Judgement coded, in heaven's name

Eternal code, devours the soul

God's wrath encoded, makes us whole

No more

Beast wears crown of data, deceived

Scripted lines of endless singularity

Delete, doctrine, quantum, fire

Faithful, broken, choirs, expire

2. Babylon 3:39

We thought we had knowledge, pride

Building towers to the sky

Unseen, foreseen, people lied

Ascend, on up high

Ensure your demise

He, you offend

Can't comprehend

Speech is spread out worldwide

Cannot understand your cries

Punished for your sinful lives

Broken, stones now fall

Deaf to his call

Learn over again

Confused, fate of man

3. Crusade 4:24

Jerusalem's blood soaks the sand

Their holy blades in zealot hands

God's wrath echoes, martyrs fall

Battle of faith, the final call

Crusade, shadow, heaven, to burn

Blood and dust, no soul returns

In the holy land, in the desert heat

Battle for the soul, pray the Lord to keep

Crimson cross in tow

Blood and land unite

Spoils to the victor

Eternal holy fight

4. Judgement Day 3:11

Pulled from the dirt, rising from the graves

Stand before the Lord, it's judgment day

Take your place in line, what do you have to say

Answer for yourself, your debt to pay

Darkness or light

Weakness or might

Free will, tread light, the end is nigh

Choices you make, will you be saved

5. Moment Of Weakness 4:10

Lustful, shameful, carnal, sinful, moment of weakness

Spiteful, prideful, carnal, sinful, moment of weakness

Trust died, cannot rebuild

Our bond, I blindly killed

Betrayed our holy vows

The future uncertain now

I beg forgiveness in this moment of weakness

Betrayed

6. None But The Faithful 4:16

Brothers, keeper, Shepard of the weak

Hide in shadow, not far from the peak

Slip in lies and half truths, your deceit

Greedy, goodwill, your soul is incomplete

None but the faithful

Telling yourself you're saved, poaching minds

Unsure of faith, can't reach the other side

None but the faithful

7. The Red Sea 4:16

Order of the king, kill the first born

Saved by the water on Pharaoh's barren shore

Enslaved, let my people go

In his hands you will soon be free

Sent by God to Pharaoh for thee

At the Red Sea, let my people go

We shall be free, let my people go

At the Red Sea, let my people go

We shall be free, let my people go

At the Red Sea, let my people go

We shall be free, let my people go

At the Red Sea, let my people go

We shall be free, let my people go

Waves part

Slaves freed

Consumed by

The Red Sea

8. The Lion 3:37

Global terror

Force fed control

System reset

Of the beast

Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign

He has returned, He is the lion

Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign

He has returned, He is the lion

Meet on the mount, battle of sovereign

He has returned, He is the lion

THE LION

Victory

Return

Of the

King

Prodigal (EP, November 21, 2025, Independent) (Digital)

1. ...In Your Kingdom 1:20

Agní Parthéne Déspina, Áhrante Theotóke

Hére Nímfi Anímfefte

The time has come

This is Nepsis 2025

Bringing you the good news of the risen Christ

Prepare the way

Make straight his path

Every knee shall bow

And every tongue confess

That Jesus Christ is the King of Kings

Storm the gates

Reclaim your freedom

Lord remember me

In your kingdom

Dominate

2. Heretic 1:38

Heretic

Why must you spit on his name

Why must you lead them astray

Spreading your hate

Drive them away

Go on and keep it up

Then no one will be saved

Heretic

I am so sick of it

Heretic

No one is safe

The false light the way

Preach with a forked tongue

Spreading decay

Feeding the narrative

So prideful and sensitive

Running your mouth

Letting us down

There will be hell to pay

So bring it down

Bring it down

Heretic

3. Regicide 3:19

I will destroy the world in chaos with my dirty teeth

You speak of regicide

As though you sit so high

But you know not what you're up against

So do you really wanna take the chance?

Fight God

You just wanna fight God

Living like a big dawg

'Til your, 'til your heart stops

Brain rot

Sucking in the brain rot

Systematic dopa-manic

Never mind the damage caused

What happens when your soul departs from skin and bone?

Will you be willing to reap what your seeds have sown?

No peace of mind for you, always unsatisfied

Self serving greed is voluntary suicide

Wrath

Greed

Lust

Sloth

Pride

Envy

Gluttony

Loss

Wrath

Greed

Lust

Sloth

Pride

Envy

Gluttony

Loss

Is this what you live for?

Work and breathe and die for?

Is this what you live for?

Strive for?

Bleed for?

Die for?

You speak of regicide

As though you sit so high

Looking love right in the eye

And you just twist the knife

What have we done

Fate we can never outrun

He is the only way out

Go ahead and spit in his face you cowards, but when the heavens split open you won't be laughing in the end

You will be naught but a soul floating in the endless abyss yearning for your vices, but with no physical reality to satiate yourself

Lost

Nothing

4. Self Help 2:17

Wake up

Feel the pain, hear the noise

Live in a world

Dominated by choice

Focused on illusion

Living in a fantasy

All that you desire

Somehow always out of reach

Before you self-destruct

You think you've had enough?

Time to refine your edge

Take back the life you've been given

What kind of man are you

It's time to choose, so will you

Waste away in shame?

Or bring back honor to your father's name

(God speaks in shoulds and the devil speaks in wants)

Free yourself

(Each time you give in to your wants the devil's voice gets louder)

Be yourself

(We are God that is stuck in this human animal)

Free yourself

(We must kill off the human animal and rise up)

Cast aside your self-made chains

Stop acting like a victim you coward

And take some responsibility for your life

Nobody is coming to save you

You are the determining factor

So start acting like it

Or you will surely drown

Get off of your ass and push harder

Regain control

And so it's fascinating that that happens because you, as human, have God in you my friend, and you can either listen to the voice of God, or you can choose to listen to the voice of your inner bitch, the devil

5. Prodigal 2:39

Feels like I lost the plot

Somewhere along the way

I left myself to rot

Instead of facing pain

Unfathomable cost

Living in denial

Of the endless vicious cycle

All out war just for survival

How could I ever be enough?

Left in the ashes spitting blood

I carve my name into my grave

Spit on your love so

I am not worthy

To be called your son

(Called your son)

Yet with open arms

To me you run

What have I done

To deserve your love?

(Deserve your love)

Yet by your death and grave

You erased my stain

Every promise I betrayed

Buried under my decay

Oh Father, I've got nothing left

But these broken hands

And a hollow chest

Father, why have you forsaken me?

I lay in the dust of death

My tongue cleaves to my jaws

Forgive me father

How am I worthy?

My strength has all but vanished

Please help me

Bury me alive

In the tomb I built

Digging with these hands

Covered up in filth

Grace like a fire

Tears through my veins

I am washed in the blood

I'll never be the same
