Woe
Woe betide he!
Condemned from the very beginning to ultimate destruction
Preoccupied with recruiting souls with reckless abandon
With a mandate to wreck havoc on mankind before his time is done
The hour of reckoning for the mastermind of all evil at Armageddon shall come
For in hell eternally shall he burn
Woe unto thee!
Agents of the prince of darkness
Shedding innocent blood and leaving in its wake the fatherless and motherless
Destroying destinies of countless
Alas! Judgment shall come in its uprightness
For the verdict shall be an everlasting sentence to the abyss of hopelessness
Woe is me!
From a state of nothingness, born into an awareness of mankind’s fall
Caught in the crossfire between two warring factions, of which there’s no sitting on the wall
To the light I must navigate, there’s no other favourable call
Lest the darkness subsume me and I be a fireball
Time will tell how my life’s mission will progress or stall
For after death, I shall awake to eternally know it all
