Son Of The Sun Lyrics

Artist: Therion
Album: Lemuria / Sirius B

In ancient days of Khem
A Pharaon was praising
The sun above Amon
Osiris, Mother Isis and Thoth

The gods would punish the hybris of Pharao
He wrapped himself in false sunshine
He was the founding father of the only God
But he provoked a fit of rage

Refrain
Son of the Sun, it was his name
Son of the Sun, the sun will burn your wings
Son of the Sun, beware of Aton
Son of the Sun, your God will let you down

The Sphinx burst into tears
And pyramids are shaking
The precipice is close
When Pharao is losing his faith

Visions of madness led the Pharaon astray
The portents were too ominous
Until this day his curse is still the plague of man
We must defeat the only God

Refrain

Apep will rise
Apep will come

Refrain

this song is clearly about the pharaon Aken-aton father of Tuth-ankh-amon... it is about the el Amarna period when they became monotheists and thus abandoning the ancient traditions... clearly the writer of lyrics sees monotheists as "the plague of man"...

Daniel winter,Anna Hayes ,sacahria zitchin , beteen others were clear inspirations for this lyrics or at least the information they share ... All therion albums are based on planetary multidimensional history ,the planet cycles our connection with extraterrestrial civilizations , the awaking of human kind to metaphysical realities ..CHristofer or who ever writes the lyrics seems to know a lot into this subjects...therion amazing!
