Gods Of Wrath Lyrics
A lonely god you captured, do you feel the pain
Tried to help the people but your help was all in vain
You gave to us their fire, but who was watching you
Chainin' out a reason, now what you gonna do?
Whoa, oh
Yeah! Alright! Come on! Right now!
Now that they picked you, a lesson has been taught
Join us now in vengeance and let the bodies rot
A thousand times a thousand is finally gonna end
Storms of war are brewing- we need your help but when
Whoa, yeah, ah!
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath are heartless when they left you hanging there
Cast out and abandoned, you had to pay the fare
Now's the time to break free and help us if you can
'cause we're all behind you to start the master plan
Whoa, yeah, ahh
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
? fine by you
Saying you will never learn
Reach up to the heavens and let the bodies burn
You know you have the answer
You've always been a friend
Break the chains in anger and let it all begin
Whoa, yeah, ah
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
God, come down, gods are before you
Tried to help the people but your help was all in vain
You gave to us their fire, but who was watching you
Chainin' out a reason, now what you gonna do?
Whoa, oh
Join us now in vengeance and let the bodies rot
A thousand times a thousand is finally gonna end
Storms of war are brewing- we need your help but when
Whoa, yeah, ah!
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Cast out and abandoned, you had to pay the fare
Now's the time to break free and help us if you can
'cause we're all behind you to start the master plan
Whoa, yeah, ahh
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath
Saying you will never learn
Reach up to the heavens and let the bodies burn
You know you have the answer
You've always been a friend
Break the chains in anger and let it all begin
Whoa, yeah, ah
Gods of wrath
Gods of wrath

That greek guy
It is taking about the archons and the demiurge-the god of this world who keep humanity enslaved and hide our true potential. As we ascend in consciousness the harpies/divas/sirens/succubus are sent to subdue us. But if we fight for our freedom we can defeat the gods of wrath and become one with the Father. Gods of wrath-hunt them down

There are so many [false] gods of the different mythologies. This song seems to be written from the viewpoint that Jesus (as refered to in the third stanza, and the first two verses) was only a scapegoat and will somehow (as Layne Staley from Alice in Chains sang "deny Your Maker"). The enigma is that Jesus is God. He can't deny Himself. The writer[s] also want to mix an amalgome of other false gods into the story. What the humanist view fails to appeal to is that Jesus is of the Godhead, and is both God and Man, and isn't on the Cross anymore. Even the Roman Catholics still seem to venerate Him on the Cross. If the Christian God isn't given the respect for His omniscience, then who on earth can claim to have universal knowledge? (That is a rhetorical question. No human has universal knowledge). That's the problem humnaists have. Their worldview doesn't comport. They want to assume induction, but deny the only worldview that would comport with the pressupositons of abstract laws and objective truths, which are foundations in the Christian worldview. All the pomp surrounding the lyrics is just window dressing to sell the false worldview of humanism.
@Bahnsenite The Godhead is a Catholic creation. Jesus is not God. Jesus was the Michael the Archangel who took human form as Jesus. God is God. There is no holy spirit separate from any other heavenly creation and God himself. Angels are spirit beings created by God. Michael the Archangel took human form in Jesus and was/is the first, the most loved and powerful angel. Other angels may have, and maybe even likely were created by Michael with Gods authority, as Jesus is Gods only begotten Son. Jesus was Michael in human form, and thus understands the human condition, giving...

Michael the Archangel took human form in Jesus and was/is the first, the most loved and powerful angel. Other angels may have, and maybe even likely were created by Michael with Gods authority, as Jesus is Gods only begotten Son. Jesus was Michael in human form, and thus understands the human condition, giving him first hand knowledge and understanding of why we are the way we are and asking forgiveness from God for our transgressions even during his fateful hour. A time where he was indeed afraid enough to sweat blood as he knew what lay ahead. "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do" This makes Jesus the perfect heavenly ruler over humans at his appointed time. He knows why we are the way we are and knowing that we are subject to all manners of unrighteousness, He still loves us. His promises will become manifest. In his Kingdom, the worthy will live in paradise on earth. Not floating around with harps on clouds.... that's just ridiculous. If God wanted us to live in heaven, he would have created us to do so. The truth is, we will live as we were intended, forever in earthly paradise, or just maybe, the universe will be ours to roam and explore for eternity if we choose. The wicked shall perish. Not go to a burning lake of fire, but rather they will perish never to live or exist again. What purpose would a torment of eternity serve for a God of Love? It makes no sense, much like most absurd doctrine that is designed to enrich the false profits of false teachings in false churches. God doesn't care about Tithing,Hail Marys and Our Fathers chants. It's completely absurd. Think about it. What he does want, is for us to worship him for the magnificent being that he is, for us to obey the commandments laid forth. To be good people, to heed the words of Jesus Christ in the New Testament, and to seek him out to better understand his will and have a relationship with him so that when it comes time, he will know you. Wake up people!!!!!
There are so many misconceptions here. Which one do I start with? I don't see any Scriptural references or manuscript evidences for your argument. So you are refuted from the get go. Basically you have created a straw man argument so that you can knock it down. Very arbitrary for a dilettante. It almost sounds as if you are a Jehovah's Witness. You have not stated your beliefs. If so, you are a idol worshipper (you are an idol worshipper whether you are a JW or not). In the NWT John 1:1 it says "In the beginning was the...

If so, you are a idol worshipper (you are an idol worshipper whether you are a JW or not). In the NWT John 1:1 it says "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god." There is no manuscript evidence for the NWT so it undermines itself as an authority. If you would have studied the Greek you would know that the word kai (or "and") shows a personal relationship, which would make the NWT believers all idol worshippers as it claims Jesus as just a god among many. Ironically you need to heed your own words to wake up.
Sorry I missed spelled amalgam, and made an editing error.
The song is loosely about Prometheus who got busted giving humans fire and was condemned to be chained to a rock and tortured for his transgression. There are plenty of lyrics in the song that don't exactly fit the narrative but "you gave to us their fire, but who was watching you" and "break your chains in anger" are good pointers.
The song portrays the story of the god Prometheus, who gave man fire but ended up being captured by the other gods, notably Zeus who disliked him. The people he once helped have turned their backs on him after they received his gift and left him to rot after he didn't answer their calls when they needed him most. Prometheus is urged to break free from the chains that bind him from devoted followers and to unleash his anger upon those who betrayed him. It suggests that he is hesitant to take action and does not wish to harm, which is why he hasn't fought to break free from his chains. He is urged to unleash his anger upon those who betrayed him and to start a master plan with the support of other gods who had suffered like him. It ends with his final decision to break free from the chains and unleash his wrath upon those who betrayed him.
