Mortification - Black Snake lyrics

[Words and Music by Michael Bloodgood]

[Originally recorded by Bloodgood]

Down, down, down below the grave

Heaven has turned away

Dust, dust, dust will be his feed

A lethal blow to end his days

Lies, lies, lies are all he speaks

Contamination of your mind

Dark, dark, darkness fills your eyes

Delusion tries to make you blind

He's like a beast that lies in hiding

A mercenary of deceit

I hear the tolling of the death bell

I see his ultimate defeat

He is the black snake of rebellion

He is the slayer of the young

He is the Hell-borne of the angels

His destiny will be the flames

Death, death, death is all around

But you can surely break away

Blood, blood, blood has paid the price

The Prince of Peace will show the way

He who is in me is greater

Than he who is in the world

He who is in me is greater

Than he who is in the world
