Controversial one-man Black Metal band (well, controversial-ish… some people seem to get upset about it!) VERKRAG has released a brand new video. The video is for a track called “Doomsday Prophets” and can be watched below. Please note that this is a demo version of the song.
The final version will appear on the next VERKRAG album coming 2012 and that in principle will be called “Anti-God”. The music was written by Anton van Niekerk and the lyrics are by Anton van Niekerk and A.H. Miller. The lyrics can be viewed below (I especially like the final two lines):
With piercing eyes you roam your turf
Seeking sinners, seeking dirt
“Repent or die!” your high pitched scream
your condescending eyes they gleam“You will be judged, you filthy scum,
before our god you all will come”
You doomsday prophet, you evil saint
what gives you the right to name my fate?Your form is godly but you deny the power
You stand for justice and yet you cower
You crawl in the dark like a rat on heat
Seeking to destroy, seeking to defeatWho is this god you talk about
The God of truth? The God of light?
“Go in love”, He summonsed you
Where is that love, you malicious few?Why is it then your holy gold
Reflects the soul of one not whole?
You’ve missed your calling, you’ve gone astray
Your very own you turn awayMindless beings – Unevolved creatures
Superstitious primitive half ape
Blindly following and believing
Existence governed by fairytale lawsThis prosecuted prophet you blindly follow
Believing him god yet he’s dead
Rotting for more than 2 millennia
Remove the blindfold use your headScreaming on street corners like whores
I watch you as you walk and prance
For your hypocrisy all can clearly see”
Leeches latched to open soresRepent or burn in the fires of hell
you say to those who don’t obey
Pretty little dressed up porcelain dolls…
Nothing but empty shells“You will be judged, you filthy scum,
before our god you all will come”
You doomsday prophet, you evil saint
What gives you the right to name my fate?Your form is godly but you deny the power
You stand for justice and yet you cower
You crawl in the dark like a rat on heat
Dismember and feast on innocent meatWho is this god you talk about
The God of truth? The God of light?
“Go in love”, He summonsed you
Man made god misunderstood JewChurch rule dominate like days of old
Threatening eternal damnation of souls
What is the purpose to all of this?
Why do we even have to exist?Left man drenched in guilty blood
Victoriously i will rise as my own godReligion is a lie
Look for the god inside yourself
