Servants of the Serpentine Lyrics

Wounded I rested, bloodied deep in my eternal sleep

Unconscious, defeated, restless, I could not speak

Suddenly I heard the words, breathe, and live my son

Wipe the blood of your hands, your task is not done

New rites shall replace the old, a prophecy once foretold

Gather men, priest, and kings

Servants, Servants of the serpentine

The time is here, a new age nears

Up in the heavens where the gods roam and rule

Quetzalcoatl changed the way we pay our sacred dues

Some are angered, this is the life we lead to choose

These beliefs are the new practice we will now use

Sacrifice beast, the life we plant and breed

The blood and flesh of men I do not need

Honor my words and there will be no more deceit

On the altars our forefathers we shall meet

The crowd raged on, angry, screamed like men do in the battle ground

Serving the ancestral pact, a ritual bonded in fire and blood

Lost, confused, distraught the eyes of warriors still proud

Looking at me with hate, rage, cursing me out loud

I searched within my mind, I'm questioning this plan

I stand above head up high I'm the servant

Serpent, Serpentine son

Furious and distraught they yelled Tezcatlipoca will have your heart and head

I serve the serpent god whose chosen me until the day I rest my death

Ce Acatl I have chosen you, death will be your tribute your sacrifice

If they oppose, show no remorse, take this city, take them into a fire

into a fire!

The eyes of warriors still proud

Looking at me with rage, hate, cursing me out loud

I searched within my mind, I'm questioning this plan

I stand in front, head up high I'm the servant

Serpent, Serpentine son

Venom through my veins

I am the serpent, my eyes inflamed

A servant, I am the serpentine son

Servants, Servants of the serpentine
