Aten-Ra Lyrics
(rise Akhetaten)
I made this monument by his hand
a drifting sun in a foreign land
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
Angel of the One
his face has been denied
from all the inscriptions
but not from the sky
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
Who is God?
His name defies belief
for no One less wrought in Heresy?
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS RA, ISRAEL?
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS RA, ISRAEL?
I made this monument by his hand
a drifting sun in a foreign land
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
his face has been denied
from all the inscriptions
but not from the sky
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
His name defies belief
for no One less wrought in Heresy?
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS-RA, ISRAEL
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS RA, ISRAEL?
ATEN-RA, ANKH-IS-RA
IS-RA, IS RA, ISRAEL?

This song has to do with the god Aten.
you think?
Is Ra El? On bookofcruxshadows.com, there's a brilliant explanation for this song. Basically, it's the question of if Ra is El (Hebrew god).

Egyption, summerian, and Hebrew mythology, have a lot of similar componants.
Aten was the Egyptian god of the sun disc (though not Ra--he's seperate) that Akhenaten and his father raised to the level of the one and only god while banning any other gods' existence. To me, the song reminds me of the idea that any/all gods that have been worshipped throughout the centuries are one and the same, creating the impression that all of them are nonsense.
Something I just noticed: Israel sounds a lot like "is real". :p
Unfashioned said it well. And them being Chatholic really brings this song to a whole new light. They look up to him for what he tried to do.
