Cover art for Shepherd of Fire lyrics by Avenged Sevenfold

Sounds like satan enticing the listener to sign on a deal.

I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs

  • He has all you need and want.

Well I can promise you paradise No need to serve on your knees

  • He can grant you a good deal without needing to pay for it... "yet"

Through the ages of time I've been known for my hate

  • Satan has been a prominent figure throughout history. Often depicted as a hateful and chaotic being.

But I'm a dealer of sinful choices For me it's never too late

  • Satan makes deals with humans for them to gain physical advantages on the price of their souls.
My Interpretation
