the son ov morn
what made me so divine?
I, transcending ecstasy through ecstasy
I who am eternally defined by my Will
lead: Seth
behold I am the spawn of downcast Ariman
awakened, yet am no longer human
kindle me to Thy rapture
as I descend into Sheol
Hiva! hear my call!
transform my flesh into flame
Hiya! hear my cry!
sustain my being in million-fold forms
background lead: Nergal
our creed: the living flesh
our law: trespass all the laws
since NUIT is our refuge
and HADIT becomes our light
lead: Nergal
all stirs within
tis chaos in and above me
In the world ov nether-nether
"I" infinite space is all-consuming
behold! I am unending!
the consciousness ov "I" shines universally
unbound by wretched dogma
I spew my will forth!
hell is democracy!
background lead: Nergal
all things exist in me
I believe in naught save myself
my sermon steadfast and proud:
there is nothing but god in me!
all things stir in me
with joy and suffering
my sermon steadfast and proud:
there is nothing but god in me!

heres what Nergal says about the song in the Demigod booklet- "this piece has a strong lovecraftian approach to it the term XUL comes from Sumerian and means "evil" but when you read this backwards it will give you the latin word LUX which is light. in my code evil stands for primal forces, the cosmic beings ov unimaginable powers that influence my life, give it another dimesion or different level ov reality. it is so unlimited and hard to be defined or to be labelled but it definitely opens new doors ov perception and make me understand whats hidden behind the wall ov ignorance."
Yay! Karl Sanders of nile plays the outro on this song! Behemoth and Nile are two of the best bands around right now.
And you can hear Alleister Crowley in this song. Like in "Horns Ov Baphomet". I think its after the 4th verse. You have to listen very closely.
