Divide Devour Lyrics

Through the folds of time i forge the way
Messiah to my own and sent to slay
I am pure embodied rage
Made of a million souls that dearly paid

The icy pulse that's pumpin' through my veins
Sanctifies the end of human ways
I am pure embodied rage
Born of a million souls unjustly slain

(Chorus)
I am the weapon that strikes
In the hearts of man iI thrive
Feeding their fear with lies
I will devour I will divide
I am the god of hellfire
Inside every man there lives a liar
Before their gods they cower
I will devour I will devour

Antichrist or harbringer of fate
Prophet and priest born of the
ancient rage
I will assassinate their way
Annihilation of the human race

(Chorus)
I am the weapon that strikes
In the hearts of man iI thrive
Feeding their fear with lies
I will devour I will divide
I am the god of hellfire
Inside every man there lives a liar
Before their gods they cower
I will devour I will devour

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This album picks up where Framing Armageddon leaves off - at the birth of Set Abominae:

"Over the course of the next two thousand years, he crushes kingdoms under their own greed and thirst for conquest, controls the weak through the manipulation of religion, and declares his own godhood, appealing to the lies and self deceit in every human being (Sacrificial Kingdoms, Something Wicked Pt3, Divide Devour)." -wiki
