2. Bent Spines 2:53

Ascending via

Human ladder

To a distant

Peak-less top

Golden touch

Hole in the heart

Mouth-gagged moral

Greed drives onwards

Open palm, clenched fist

Soothing bribes, death blows

Methods shift

Back and forth

Victims change

Winners stay

Clearing path

Stomping life

Bleed-dry all

And gauge our eyes

"High-steam-roller"

Soundproof windows

Muted screams

Damped reality

Open palm, clenched fist

Soothing bribes, death blows

Methods shift

Back and forth

Victims change

Winners stay

Augmentation of blood money

Heightens leeches to the sky

Grasping sunshine of all men

And claiming as their own

As their own

Only their own

Their own

These giants feel so safe

With their heads reach-less

Rest assure their necks are safe

We'll determinedly break their legs

Break their legs

Break their legs

Break their legs

3. Occupatism 4:36

Charlatan's offer to edify

Susceptible minds gladly accept

Dazed by the rich rhetoric

They warm under his clutching wing

Quenching from a poisoned well

That past vipers have spewed out

Cryptic letters subjectively change

Can the truth be fluctuating?

Deepening a flat line

Sisyphus role-playing

Leeching carousel

Vacuity

Questions breed more questions

Extending blur over haze

"The golden dawn" brings nighttime

A snake choking on its tail

4. Vocalizer 2:46

Pouring down his concept

Showering with fire masses

Arsoning accepting hearts

For goals aimed by his need

Vocalizing without a thought

Of the triggers in the rows

Unraveling to motion

Consequences without a roll-back

Vocalizer

Amp-ed dominating

Playing his song

For you to subdue

Levitating himself high

And the herd is lifting him more

Fragile man being molded

Into an image of a god

Commands that you embrace

Award him with a smile

That he puts on as he...

Washes his blood-stained hands

Vocalizer

Amp-ed dominating

Playing his song

For you to subdue

"Jump, shout, stay"

"Jump, shout, stay"

"Jump, shout, stay"

"Do as I say"

"Jump, shout, stay"

"Jump, shout, stay"

"Jump, shout, stay"

Blindly obey

5. Collateral Implosion 4:53

Lord, I wanna thank You

For this sight that You gave me

To be able to perceive

The beauty of Your design

Lord, please forgive me for my...

Debasing of a soul into flesh

On which I fasten my eyes

And foul my heart with

Lord, I wanna thank You

For this hearing that You gave me

To be able to delight

In harmonies of Your design

Lord, please forgive me for the...

Dulcet whispers of wickedness

Towards which I lean my ear

And foul my heart with

Lord, I wanna thank You

For this taste that You gave me

To be able to ingest

The savors of Your design

Lord, please forgive me for the...

Poison rhetoric arrows

That my tongue spews out

And fouls my heart with

Lord, I wanna thank You

For this mind that You gave me

To be able to comprehend

Complexity of Your design

Lord, please forgive me for the...

Odious conceptions

That bloat pride which my brain

Adopts and fouls my heart with

Lord, I wanna thank You

For these feelings that You gave me

To be able to assimilate

The deluge of Your love

Lord, please forgive me for the

Arrhythmic sentiment that bitters

That my heart pumps

In

And...

Blinds me

For You

Deafens me

For You

Mutes me

For You

Petrifies me

For Your embrace

6. This World... 2:45

Lifeline falling sand

With a frozen direction

Crack-less glass wall

Inhaling secondary air

All comes to pass

Chewed and drained by the mouth of time

But cast no stone

Its purpose is crucial

This world is hanging

By a thread

By a thread...

Around its neck

Instrument of truth

Peeling away the gloss

Core stands striped

Power depletes fast

Once no mask

Covers vanity

Yearning for flesh and skin

Veneer falls off carrion reeks

Chasing dreams of silver and gold

Awake and perceive the polished rust

Pile up knowledge

Tome skyscrapers

Futile effort put

Cardinal argument - death

7. Motive, Pivot, Time And Blunder 1:25

My vocal outburst

A surge of compassion

Aims to perforate the flesh

A hole for the seed of life

...The Word of God

Raising questions of eternal

Conclusion doors to forever

Will you clasp the rot

Or permanence of bliss

...Heaven or hell

Here is where you choose

Now is when you choose

Only with a pulse

Can you decide

Exploits fail the purpose

A key that doesn't fit

Into the doors of salvation

Only a pleasing epitaph

...Brief echo of existence

Word of God...

Heaven or hell...

Accept Christ...

Or burn forever

8. Paving Dream 2:25

Carried by His grace

I let the Spirit take me

To planes of true purpose

And desire

Uncorrupted and...

Unsoiled by my flesh

Satsifactory

To the furthest extent

I dream

And instigate

I dream

And instigate

Possessing a tongue of fire

A dividing sword of light

The truth that amputates

Rotting dead from the eternal

O my Lord

Please withhold my flesh

Give me Thy net and shape me

Into the fisherman of men

I dream

And instigate

Let me bear fruit

In Your name

Because solemnly

I desire to...

Flood the earth

With Your name

And love that is You

And only You

9. Satan's Marrow 2:23

Enshrining of the deceiver

The eyeless hollows make

Seeking for completion

They fill the void with vapor

Mutual benefit illusion

The restless itch of sin

Poisonous blood infusion

Malignant friend's gift

Flaunting with their chokers

Clinging to card-tower empire

Visions of promised claims

Crafted by the lie itself

Satan lies

Satan lies

Satan lies

He just lies

Satan lies

Satan lies

That's all he does

Slither In Flames (EP, July 8, 2018, Independent) (Digital)

1. What Loss? 4:51

An infidel to your false religion, you behead me

What effect will this have, will it damn or save thee?

Facing the machete, Holy Spirit give me courage to slay the fear

Wretched fearful flesh is all I am here

Help me God to be Christ-like and obedient in death

Testify of Christ, saving grace with my final breath

In witnessing hearts let the name Jesus Christ stir

Turn to Christ and repent 'cause life passes by in one quick blur

The loss of this life and all I have apart from Christ to be counted as dung

Word more truthful have not been spoken or sung

Let my testimony pour forth from me just as the blood soon shall

True to the Lord on cannot fail

Tell of Christ's glory before my limbs no longer fail

In Christ, to die is to gain, not loss

Sin and the old serpent defeated upon the cross

All efforts of the false religion Islam are worthless and done in vain

Turn to Christ and have eternal life with no more death or pain

Anthems Of Nocturnal Praise (EP)

May 5, 2021, Coleiosis Records (Digital)

As the top artwork suggests, it was originally released as a single (What Loss? Bone Savage Edition).  All other tracks were added later on, along with the altering of the artwork.

1. What Loss? (Bone Savage Edition) 6:57

An infidel to your false religion, you behead me

What effect will this have, will it damn or save thee?

Facing the machete, Holy Spirit give me courage to slay the fear

Wretched fearful flesh is all I am here

Help me God to be Christ-like and obedient in death

Testify of Christ, saving grace with my final breath

In witnessing hearts let the name Jesus Christ stir

Turn to Christ and repent 'cause life passes by in one quick blur

The loss of this life and all I have apart from Christ to be counted as dung

Word more truthful have not been spoken or sung

Let my testimony pour forth from me just as the blood soon shall

True to the Lord on cannot fail

Tell of Christ's glory before my limbs no longer fail

In Christ, to die is to gain, not loss

Sin and the old serpent defeated upon the cross

All efforts of the false religion Islam are worthless and done in vain

Turn to Christ and have eternal life with no more death or pain

2. Glory For Our King 3:06

Without him this world's just a giant mess

Every knee will bow, every tongue shall confess

Allelu-Alleluia

Jesus is worthy of all praise

He's the light of our darkest days

Allelu-Alleluia

He is the Lord of Lords, and King of Kings

The Lion of Judah has come, and it's redemption and peace he brings

3. Slither In Flames 6:25

There is no such thing as satanic might

Facing Almighty God the devil is not able to put up much of a fight

Victory over God something the wicked shall never see

Light floods in, darkness shall no longer be

All done in vain that which the evil do

Their dreams of reigning shall never come true

A created being wages a vain, evil, and untenable war against the righteous and holy Lamb

Light burns away the darkness exposing ever diabolical scam

He parades perverse images before the eyes of men to stoke ever evil desire

Killing, destroying, pausing pain in vain, soon the old serpent shall taste the fire

Victorious we are written in the Lamb's book of names

Defeated and left to slither in flames

Victorious we are written in the Lamb's book of names

Defeated and left to slither in flames

1. The Common Descent 1:25

2. Nothing To Live For 2:01

If my misery could be weighed and my troubles be put on sales

They would outweigh all the sands of the sea

That is why I spoke impulsively, for the Almighty has struck me down

O that I might have my request, that God would grant my desire

I wish He would crush me, I wish He would reach out His hand

And kill me at least I can take comfort in this

3. Sins Of Man 3:12

Man was born in sin

We will die in sin

We can only beg

For forgiveness

Repent of your sins

To pay my debt

Surely means death

For my sins are many

I cannot find solace

My spirit is restless

My heart's heavy with dread

Will I see the gates of Heaven

4. Evilution 1:49

I felt his presence once when I was a child

Faith is not easily sustained

They are not as they seem, I've been losing faith

And finding knowledge, searching for answers

Finding lies and deception on both sides

Mixed answers, does evolution disprove God?

I can't believe the world is only 600 years old

All the facts and evidence, can't hide your lies

5. The Great Blasphemer 2:32

Then I saw a beast rising up from the sea

It had 7 heads and 10 horns

With 10 crowns on its horns, and written on each hand

Were names that blasphemed God

I saw that on the heads of the beast

Seemed wounded beyond recovery but the fatal wound was healed

Then the beast was allowed to speak

Great blasphemies against God

And the beast was allowed to wage war on the holy people and to conquer them

All the people on this world worshiped the beast

They are the ones whose names were not written

In the Book of Life, the book that belongs to the Lamb who was slaughtered

6. Fire Unafaned Will Consume Him 2:21

7. Path In Darkness 2:01

How long will you torment me, it is true

I have gone astray

My error remains my concern alone

Then I know that God has wronged me

And drawn His net around me

He has shrouded my path in darkness

He has stripped me of my honor

And removed His crown from my head

His anger burns against me

He counts me among His enemies

I am nothing but skin and bones

I have escaped the skin of my teeth

Will you ever get enough of my flesh

8. Pray For Nothing 1:49

I am ashamed to be Christian, your judgement and hatred

Misguided murals, this undeserved sense of self-superiority

I can see through you, I know who you are

My sins are my own, not for you to judge

You pray for waiz, I pray for nothing

If God wills it, I will have it

If you will it, you ask God for it

You're burning the foran

Teaching violence and hatred

Only vengeance is God's

9. The Great Prostitute 1:46

I will show you the judgement

That is going to come

On the great prostitute

Who rules over many waters

The kings of the world

Have committed adultery

Have been drunk by the wine

Of her immorality

A mysterious name

Written on her head

Babylon

The great mother

I could see she was drunk

Drunk with the blood

Of God's holy people

10. Flying Spaghetti Monster 1:51

Is it so crazy to believe in God

Or believe rocks collided and made all this

The world is definitely billions of years old

That doesn't mean God doesn't exist

We all have this narrow-minded opinion of God

Our God is the right God

If you don't believe you go to hell

11. God Pounds His Nails 2:01

It was once written

God's will be done

Whether it was justified

Or unmerciful

Forgive me Father

For I have sinned

Endless suffering

From within

Millions of lives

Millions to God

Everything must die

Death is certain

Life is not

12. Maggots And Scabs 2:16

Is not all of human life struggle

Our lives are like that of a slave

My body is covered with maggots and scabs

My skin breaks open, oozing with pus

My days end without hope

Never again will I feel happiness

I would rather by strangled

Rather die than suffer like this

I hate my life, and don't want to go on living

If I have sinned, what have I done to you

O watcher of all humanity

Why not just forgive my sin

And take away this guilt

For soon I will lie down, in the dust and die

13. Lambs To The Slaughter 2:39

I will bring them down

Like lambs to the slaughter

Like rams and goats

To be sacrificed

Violence will erupt in the land

As the leaders fight against each other

For the time is surely coming

When I will punish the great city

And all her idols

Her whole land will be disgraced

And her dead will lie in the streets

Nyctalopia (EP, August 17, 2020, Independent) (Digital)

1. Hell 1:04

2. Gutted Body 1:57

Spiritually blind

Gutted out

Just a hollowed shell

Wondering in the dark

Numbing your pain

Torturing your soul

You're just ready for your end

Flames

Consuming me

Damned

For all of eternity

3. Searching 2:08

Searching for reasons

Trying to understand

The one question

I kept asking myself is why

Trying to understand why

Why You allowed so much pain upon this earth

If You're all-powerful why not correct the problems

Instead of letting them play out

Fear has held me back

Afraid to trust you

Because you are something

That my feeble mind cannot understand

It's time for me to let go and trust you the Creator of all

For Your reasons are far above mine

It's time for Satan and his lies to leave my head

Satan you are dead to me! Christ is Lord!

Satan you are dead to me! Christ is Lord!

4. Lost Souls 2:51

Oh God they can't hear Your voice

They don't know Your love

Sinking in sorrow

Drowning in despair

As the world feeds them lies

Sinking in sorrow

Drowning in despair

As the world feeds them lies

Lost souls with no guide die

As the churches sit in the comfort of silence

Oh Lord please have mercy on them

Oh Lord please have mercy on them

Send me to a soul who's searching

Rise up you warriors of Christ

And wake up a world that's asleep

Point those lost souls to Christ that peace may overcome them

5. FEAR 3:52

Eyes widened

Heart racing

I cannot move

Fear takes control

Isolation rips my soul

Hiding from people

Numbing my emotions

Suicidal thoughts

I'm not in control

I can no longer live life like this

There's got to be more to life than this

Oh God come and set me free

Set me free

Say to those with fearful hearts, "Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you." (Isaiah 35:4)

Slamming Bells (single, December 25, 2020, Independent) (Digital)

One of the first songs recorded, now with updated sound.

1. Slamming Bells 1:20

Flesh Slayer (album, February 1, 2021, Independent) (Digital)

1. Flesh Slayer 2:27

Behold a mortal creature

Entrapped in a mass of flesh

A soul struggling to escape

As the flesh spreads its disease

In Christ a new creation

As this soul awakens the flesh around me attacks in the shape of my mortal self

They come with blood-filled eyes set to kill

My blade runs through one's cadaver

Another I disembowel

I stand strong with no fear

Slay the flesh that prays upon you

Strike fast, show no mercy

Get eviscerated by the flesh slayer

Reinforcement of demons empower the flesh with pricing lies

Their screams deafen the air as my blade slices through

I struggle to regain composure as they start to overpower

They come with blood-filled eyes set to kill

I can't win this war alone but with the power of Christ I will

Slay your flesh and feed your soul!

Slay your flesh

Feed your soul!

2. Ritual Of Filth 2:16

A man alone

Satan whispering lies

She claws at the mind

Eyes locked in a trance

Conscience ignored

Flesh craving flesh

To fill a fleshy desires

Now the ritual has begun

Perversion in the form of maggots crawling through the eyes

Brain slowly rots, turned into a putrid mass

Emotions raped

Evil shreds the heart

I followed the flesh's command

But my soul is still empty

Looking for a way out

Oh God please help me

I will decapitate this malignant demon

Destroy the temptations around me

Look to God for strength

For He is greater than who is in the world

3. Man's Wicked Heart 2:40

Who are you?

Who are you to tell me what to do?

I don't want to hear your voice

Evil thoughts

A killing tongue

Words to cut you down

Perverted eyes

And foul desires

Sought out to fulfill

This wicked generation

Living life with no God

This wicked generation

Living life straight to death

A heart stone cold

Constant refusal of God

Living in sin

Too blind to see God's grace

Your time has come

You stand before the throne

Awaiting your judgement

A book is open full of names but yours He cannot find

You have denied God and He has denied you

You weep bitterly as you realize the lie you've been living

As you sink deeper into a pit of flames for the rest of eternity

I rest in torment

For all eternity

I rest in torment

For all eternity

4. Fallen Nation 2:52

Degraded society

Narcissistic culture

Deranged children

Fed filth from the media

They tell you how to live

What to like and how to talk

Taught life is to please themselves

These lies will lead to death

Mass destruction

Media-driven hatred

Violence rule the streets

Killing for power

Controlled by fear

Politicians corrupting the system

Genetically-modified food

Legal drugs

Sexual-driven culture

Children left to raise themselves

Changing our God-given genders

Same-sex marriage

Corrupt politicians

We removed God and put our trust in a man

Brain-dead lost sheep

Blindly led down the path of hell

We'd rather live a feel-good life

And turn our backs on our creator

Do you think he'll just let you live?

Man is such a foolish creature

Inventing new types of evils

Discarding all morality

Making themselves god

Desensitized to their madness

They sit in darkness, blind, they can't see the light

And the cure's right in front of them

Brain-dead lost sheep

Blindly led down the path of hell

We'd rather live a feel-good life

And turn our backs on our creator

Do you think he'll just let you live?

Here is the wrath of God

Torn into pieces by your arrogance

Repent!!

Repent!!

5. Torn Fetus 2:16

Pain

Agony within the womb

Narcissistic mother

My life not worth hers

A "choice" presented to her

Slaughter her kid or let it live

Not willing to sacrifice her lifestyle

Poisoned

Impelled

And ripped apart

A life born straight to death

A child torn apart and thrown away

Massacre finally stops

The operation is complete

A scene of horror

The terrifying reality sets in

You just killed your kid

Poisoned

Impelled

And ripped apart

The choice she made

Now a regretted decision

She's now a murderer

Forever to live with the guilt and pain

She falls to her knees and cries aloud "What have I done..."

Children are a gift from God

Who are you to take their life?

6. Repulsive Cycle 2:32

Sleeping inside of me is a creature of habit

An abomination that attacks my soul

It consumes the light and feeds on darkness

Taking possession of this maimed body

Starving for light as my soul sinks deeper into a pit of darkness

Delusion and doubt are reality

Telling myself life's not worth living

Oh God!

Come wake me up

Before it's too late!

Consuming lies

Repulsive cycle

Now depressed

Repulsive cycle

Darkened mind

Repulsive cycle

Blackened heart

Repulsive cycle

I'm a worthless sack of flesh

A fallen creation who failed his master

In the midst of this surrounding darkness

I ask my creator "Was I worth your Son to die?"

Was I worth your Son to die...

7. Gutted Body 1:57

Spiritually blind

Gutted out

Just a hollowed shell

Wondering in the dark

Numbing your pain

Torturing your soul

You're just ready for your end

Flames

Consuming me

Damned

For all of eternity

8. Searching 2:08

That my feeble mind cannot understand

It's time for me to let go and trust you the Creator of all

For Your reasons are far above mine

It's time for Satan and his lies to leave my head

Satan you are dead to me! Christ is Lord!

Satan you are dead to me! Christ is Lord!

9. FEAR 3:43

Eyes widened

Heart racing

I cannot move

Fear takes control

Isolation rips my soul

Hiding from people

Numbing my emotions

Suicidal thoughts

I'm not in control

I can no longer live life like this

There's got to be more to life than this

Oh God come and set me free

Set me free

Say to those with fearful hearts, "Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you." (Isaiah 35:4)

10. The Mind 2:30

11. The Killer In Me (Abated Mass Of Flesh cover) 2:32

How do You see me through Your eyes

Are You ashamed of me

They say You suffered on the cross

And paid my penalty

Circumstances, second chances

I live my life on repeat

If You're the God that they say You are

Can Your hand reach me

In a time of my emptiness

Through the faults of my wickedness

For the lack of my gratefulness

Can You make it stop

I saw You suffer on the cross that night

As I laughed and mocked the sight

I saw the flesh ripped from Your back

I joined the masses with a heart so black

Was the weeping and the grieving

Intended for me

I am a killer of the innocent

A growing plague, a pestilence

I am the thorn that chokes the seed

The spiteful crown that made You bleed

When the ground consumes this waste

Remember me in the holy place

I saw You suffer on the cross that night

As I laughed and mocked the sight

I saw the flesh ripped from Your back

I joined the masses with a heart so black

6. Nyctalopia - Suffered For Sin 2:16

Wickedness

Pure evil

The cancer grows

Spreading throughout the body

As sin consumes the mind

Hatred towards the holy one

Skin peeling away

Spikes driven into his limbs

Pinned to a tree

Hematidrosis

He takes his final breath

"Father why have you forsaken me?"

Taken from the cross

Placed into the tomb

Three days later

The stone rolled away

The grave is now empty

Death is defeated

Christ is risen

Death is defeated

Christ is risen

7. Nyctalopia - Vicious Disembodiment 2:07

As the dagger plunges deeper

Compelled by the power of the holy one

Demonic entities shudder in terror

Screams fill the air

As they are ripped apart

Limb by limb

Thrown into the pit

The ones who betrayed their creator

Tormented for eternity

Judgment has fallen

8. Nyctalopia - Lost Souls 2:41

Oh God they can't hear your voice

They don't know your love

Sinking in sorrow

Drowning in despair

As the world feeds them lies

Sinking in sorrow

Drowning in despair

As the world feeds them lies

Lost souls with no guide DIE!!!

As the churches sit in the comfort of silence

Oh Lord please have mercy on them

Oh Lord please have mercy on them

Send me to a soul who's searching

Rise up you warriors of Christ

And wake up a world that's asleep

Point those lost souls to Christ that peace my overcome them
