Dimmu Borgir – Gateways Lyrics 11 years ago
I agree with the line "Realize you are your own sole creator" and not with "the source of all creation" or whatever crap that was. The whole song is based on the belief of Egotheism, which is the deification of oneself and or the belief that all life is formed from a collective energy (a "God" if you will). Instead of a divine being creating each life, that particular life chose to break away from the energy thus "creating" itself and by lesser terms making itself it's own creator and "God". As the song also mentions Egotheism also means that having also created yourself willingly, you have predetermined your life and existence before you were "born" (this is what is commonly referred to as Destiny). Hope this helps enlighten those curious about the meanings of this song. But all in all a very good song.
