This song seems to describe ancient Egyptian deities. It's a little confusing to me, but I believe Ptah was thought to be the creator of the physical earth while Khnemu was said to have given humans the breath of life. Also, the Temple of Ra refers to their sun god (and also the son of Ptah), whom they obviously worshiped. What I get from this is the story of ancient Egyptian creationism. I find it hard to tell who's point of view it is, some signs point to the sages and prophets of the ancient Egyptian world while others point to the deities themselves.
Either way, this song is wonderful. It combines a metal feel with great rhythm and well-sung yet mysterious lyrics.
