I'll ascend
As the sun into the night
I'll appear
On a pale horse alight
Skyward, I climb alone
Yet bound forever to this earth
Quench my unholy thirst
To will is to dissent
I'll ascend
As the sun into the night
I'll appear
On a pale horse alight
Go forth and conquer
In thy own name, for thy own flesh
Forsake shame, forsake guilt
Do what thou wilt
Onwards, driven by doubt
Carving my beastly ways
Never will I submit
To will is to disobey
Hail empower thyself
Strive forever to more
Make heel the universe
So the last will bе the first
Onwards, driven yet calm
Carving malеvolent ways
Never will I submit
To will is to disobey
Go forth and conquer
In thy own name, for thy own flesh
Forsake shame, forsake guilt
Do what thou wilt
Go forth and conquer
Forsake shame
Forsake thy fucking guilt
For love is the law
Love under will

I’ve never done anything similar to this before. It has a groove that I believe can really do a lot of damage live. It sounds almost rock-ish, but we turn it into our black metal, and it’s fucking sharp and dangerous. There’s a conquering riff with almost a power-metal vibe. I’m not afraid...
