Kriegsphilosophie Lyrics
From long forgotten aeons
at sunrise Thou shouldst come
desired for so fuckin' long
ascend at my command
surmount the sea
throw open portals ov life
and scale this endless mountain
ov grace and ov tears
oh voice unspoken, mourn unheard
abandoned heart so desolate
rise
bow down before the kingless throne
when sun is yet to rise
consume this putrid sphere
forever and beyond
when heavenly chants mute
thy apparition did I behold
oh Venus, the sweetest ov them all
let me bath in Thy divinity
descend and thou hat descended
depart not yet
I crave for warmth ov blissful rays
and fateless eyes encourage me
the ancient dreaming
the wolf's unchained
disobedience has such a victorious taste
rise
bow down before the kingless throne
when sun is yet to rise
consume this putrid sphere
forever and beyond
forever abandoned among gods
since I have been made flesh,
and yet I challenge Thee
canst Thou hear my battle cry
at sunrise Thou shouldst come
desired for so fuckin' long
ascend at my command
surmount the sea
throw open portals ov life
and scale this endless mountain
ov grace and ov tears
oh voice unspoken, mourn unheard
abandoned heart so desolate
bow down before the kingless throne
when sun is yet to rise
consume this putrid sphere
forever and beyond
thy apparition did I behold
oh Venus, the sweetest ov them all
let me bath in Thy divinity
descend and thou hat descended
depart not yet
I crave for warmth ov blissful rays
and fateless eyes encourage me
the ancient dreaming
the wolf's unchained
disobedience has such a victorious taste
bow down before the kingless throne
when sun is yet to rise
consume this putrid sphere
forever and beyond
since I have been made flesh,
and yet I challenge Thee
canst Thou hear my battle cry

"Kriegsphilosophie" is german, and it means "war philosophy".
To me, this song is about life and facing it's struggles. And additionally, itsseems to talk about the "godly" potential in any human being, according to the text written in the bootleg.
non serviam my friends. there are no gods beyond those made ov human flesh. there is no more divine potential than a human potential and let this be the mightiest ov all laws!
("Non serviam" means "I will not serve". This phrase was spoken by Satan as he refused to serve god.)
This is one of my favorite Behemoth songs. The drumming is insane and i love the eastern-influenced riff.
i think this song is about a warrior fighting for himself. "bow down before the kingless throne" "when heavenly chants mute the apparation did i behold" "forever abandoned among the gods" putting this with the story of someone, i think it is about a great warrior who was cast down among the gods. they then send him an apparition saying that he will be accepted back into the gods if he travels the the far reaches of the world, conquering for no one but himself. the gods will then grant him knowledge and power as a human
