I find it weirdly endearing how he and the Lamb come across as friends and partners for the better part of the song. And even after the betrayal, it's implied the Lamb spares him.
Nari had a little lamb, Whose fleece was as white as snow. And wherever Nari sent, His lamb was sure to go. They followed to the gates of hell, The lamb was made to kneel. But Nari's vessel did defy, And change unholy deal Tisket, tasket, Red flowers in a basket What was once the god of death Now lie in a casket
I mean it *was* the implication of betrayal and to be fair this guy has been waiting for 1000 years which is an unfathomable amount of time to be unable to do anything
Even better, they're *both* saying it. The lamb is *also* death itself at this point, and the demand for them to kill themselves is a betrayal that has incurred their wrath.
The small details of this are SO good, and I love the story it tells. How the lamb and TOWW are completely separate voices at first, and how "But if it's time to die.." implying the lamb understanding the inevitably of a person who's time has come. Before they meet and parrot "Held/tied up by chains", a small difference suggesting the different views of the lamb and TOWW. Followed by TOWW and the Lamb syncing up perfectly as they become equals in that the Lamb is acting as a follower of his gods will. Before he starts deviating.. "I'm having so much fun" and "I'm making friends" showing off the lambs more friendly, caring, innocent view of his actions rather than TOWW's more violent and vindictive views. Then TOWW foreshadowing the Lambs rise to power by saying "YOU'RE the one they fear" Before the Lamb PREEMPTIVELY beginning the next line, showing that while he's still doing TOWW's will, he's doing it of his own volition now, rather than to serve. Before stopping at "know my name" and waiting for TOWW to finish before declaring we know HIS name. Even extending it for emphasis. And finally, TOWW making his hidden intentions known to sacrifice the Lamb and return from death. (With the hidden extra of telling him to "embrace the end" which ironically, TOWW is doing the opposite of" Prompting the Lamb to rebel and, as he was in the beginning, separate himself from TOWW as the god of death itself, once again syncing up with TOWW as equals but this time not in servitude but to vye for the position of the god of death, with TOWW separating to condescend the lamb and refuse to accept thatit's his time, inadvertently surrendering his position of god of death by refusing it's natural cycle, before once again syncing up. But this time they sync up as equals not as two gods vying for the position but, once again as a god and follower, but now with the roles reversed and Aaaaaaaaaaa it's so good!
still love how even in the song lamb goes "wait I have all your powers and your weaker than me now..why do I have to die by your hand when I can just as easily protect everyone and become the new god?" which The One who Waits obviously mad states how you're gonna face a fate 10k times worse than death for going against him.
the fact that the songs can talk about anything bad, abuse, killing, massacre, anything, it will ALWAYS have a happy chiptune remix that ill be dancing the most goofy ahhs dances you can imagine
I've listened to this so many times, and I'm picking up on so many awesome details, I love it! My personal favorite right now is when they sing, "The world will know my name", the lamb starts singing it later than The One Who Waits, but he sings it for much longer... Honestly, the lyrics are just incredible, how you can slowly see the lamb becoming more and more powerful and The One Who Waits becoming less powerful in contrast, like when The One Who Waits says, "You're the one they fear", he didn't realize that that meant that they didn't fear the One Who Waits nearly as much... It was truly starting to become, the Cult of the Lamb.
I find it clever how you've made the one who waits verses sound more heavy metal and rock 'n roll, while the lamb sounds more cute and whimsical. As if the lamb became the very thing he swear to destroy in the end.
Lyrics: Verse: I was a bishop of the old faith I was a ruler and a god Now held by chains, in disgrace I'll bide my time, I'll wait You'll be an avatar to free me You were a victim hunted down, last of your race At the Gates of Hell you'll face your fate Pre-Chorus: I'm just a little guy I don't wanna die, get sacrificed Ba-da ba bah da-da The prophecy says I'm the one they want So, if it's time to die... Chorus: Come closer to me I still have need for you, have no fear Held in chains (Tied up in chains) I'm in the land of the dead But you're here at my side now Back to the world above now To fight in the name of The One Who Waits 2nd Verse: Growing stronger from the worship For the slaughter of the gods I'm in their grip; With your sword Your ranks will grow, bring me more Kill the bishops one by one (Now I'm having so much fun!) From their blood I'll rise again (I'm making friends) We'll build a church of the damned The One Who Waits now demands: 3rd Chorus: Go further for me You've made them bleed, you're the one they fear Build a new world upon the bones of the dead With you here at my side now Conquer the ones above now The world will know my name (Know my name) Bridge: Return the crown, and embrace the end With this sacrifice, I will be freed Approach the altar and Lay down your life at my feet (Lay down your life at my feet) Pre-Chorus: Can you tell me why I should have to die Get sacrificed, when I'm the stronger one? Betray me now, and face the wrath of death itself Now it's your time to die Final Chorus: Come closer to me It's time to slaughter the lamb, at last Freed me from chains (Freed you from chains) I'll put you back in the ground Blinded by greed The foolish idol has come, to die Holding a sword against the strength of a god But the vessel is stronger Back to the world above now to serve as One of the Cult of the Lamb
@Domonick Brown thanks for reminding me to fix it DOMONICK BROWN. yes, reminding me because i already realized my mistake days ago but was too lazy to fix it DOMONICK BROWN. smh these 2 year olds giving me attitude on the daily 🤦
Quality over quantity is really proving its worth with videos like these and the people who dedicate the time to bring such amazing content to people around the world, you and many others are legends.
I think I found a new favorite song. Didn't knew that 3 minutes can pass so quickly lol This is why I love your content. Epic songs, great covers, clear and easy to understand theory videos, and fun streams. Keep up the good work, dean
I cannot describe with words how much I love this song and how it characterizes The Lamb and The One Who Waits like. Shakes this song around I love it way too much agduxbdjd-
Wait, I just realized how stupid the 4 bishops were. Narinder is the god of death. The prophecy says Narinder needs the lamb. Did they really think the god of death wouldn't notice if the lamb of prophecy died and was sent to his realm?
This went from Disney musical pop rock to metalcore. This is pretty cool! Captured the vibe of the game I dig it! can't wait to add it to my apple music!
Man, I love your work in general, but I just basically got done with the main story when you'd released this. Such a badass song, and such a great telling of the game's story.
DUDE OMG This is legit one of my favorite songs about COTL, and there's a lot of them that I love. I think this could be the second best one, behind Wool Over Our Eyes by The Stupendium. That masterpiece is just unbeatable. You got really close tho, so huge props
The chorus is legit catchy, like I can’t stop humming it bro amazing work, found this song recently and I’ve been listening to ur music, consider me a new member of your listeners 🥰
The lyrics really are in a league of their own compared to most game music (even good such), and the melody is a banger. I'm grateful I clicked on this video.
you have a very brutal voice, although I understand that it was most likely edited, and it could not have done without special effects, but still you are a cool rock guitarist and singer (with or without editing) 👏👏👏
Goddamn, every time you release a song, you blow expectations out of the water and then some. It's a shame your music isn't known as much as it should be.
I’m treating this game like the Sims 4 (play all day and then delete the save file thinking I did something wrong and could do better). On my 2nd save file currently but I’ll probably restart once I get home from work
I'm so glad my brother showed me this song 😍 Cotl is one of my top favourite games, and if I hadn't already written a few little fics for it this probably would have inspired me to!
HOOOLLLLY DAMNN THAT WAS GREAT! God I REALLY need to give this game a shot, I've been hearing a lot of people mention it and it looks right up my alley! Amazing work as usual man!
Okay but the Lamb's first line just made me think "Heyyyyy hey hey I'm just a little guy and also it's my birthday I'm a little birthday boy you wouldn't sacrifice me on my birthday would you"
If there is one cover that comes to my mind that I would love to hear from this man, it would definitely have to be Megalomania from Live A Live (The song that inspired Megalovania).
I find it weirdly endearing how he and the Lamb come across as friends and partners for the better part of the song. And even after the betrayal, it's implied the Lamb spares him.
And then marries him
I've felt this song as a love one at certain time, and I loved it ❤
@@cherry414Then puts him back in chains.
@@anondabombbond-
@@EndercakeTheMessengerI was referring to torturing him by keeping him locked up and feeding him shit.
The Lamb saying they're ready to die to then realizing they are stronger than ALL the Bishops, including Narinder, is good.
Nari had a little lamb,
Whose fleece was as white as snow.
And wherever Nari sent,
His lamb was sure to go.
They followed to the gates of hell,
The lamb was made to kneel.
But Nari's vessel did defy,
And change unholy deal
Tisket, tasket,
Red flowers in a basket
What was once the god of death
Now lie in a casket
Beautiful poem 🥹
Nice
lol
thats a great poem
Incredible
"Can you tell me why I should have to die, get sacrificed, when I'm the stronger one?"
*"Betray me now and face the wrath of Death itself!"*
That escalated quickly.
went from 50 to 200 really fast
Well ye he's the God of death and the lamb thinks he's stronger then death lol

Yh I loved it about the music changes too lol
I know and I LOVE IT it’s so cute ❤
Lyrics:
Verse:
I was a bishop of the old faith
I was a ruler and a god
Now held by chains, in disgrace
I'll bide my time, I'll wait
You'll be an avatar to free me
You were a victim hunted down, last of your race
At the Gates of Hell you'll face your fate
Pre-Chorus:
I'm just a little guy
I don't wanna die, get sacrificed
Ba-da ba bah da-da
The prophecy says I'm the one they want
So, if it's time to die...
Chorus:
Come closer to me
I still have need for you, have no fear
Held in chains (Tied up in chains)
I'm in the land of the dead
But you're here at my side now
Back to the world above now
To fight in the name of The One Who Waits
2nd Verse:
Growing stronger from the worship
For the slaughter of the gods
I'm in their grip; With your sword
Your ranks will grow, bring me more
Kill the bishops one by one (Now I'm having so much fun!)
From their blood I'll rise again (I'm making friends)
We'll build a church of the damned
The One Who Waits now demands:
3rd Chorus:
Go further for me
You've made them bleed, you're the one they fear
Build a new world upon the bones of the dead
With you here at my side now
Conquer the ones above now
The world will know my name (Know my name)
Bridge:
Return the crown, and embrace the end
With this sacrifice, I will be freed
Approach the altar and
Lay down your life at my feet (Lay down your life at my feet)
Pre-Chorus:
Can you tell me why I should have to die
Get sacrificed, when I'm the stronger one?
Betray me now, and face the wrath of death itself
Now it's your time to die
Final Chorus:
Come closer to me
It's time to slaughter the lamb, at last
Freed me from chains (Freed you from chains)
I'll put you back in the ground
Blinded by greed
The foolish idol has come, to die
Holding a sword against the strength of a god
But the vessel is stronger
Back to the world above now to serve as
One of the Cult of the Lamb
What the fuck?
@@Gokutheblackest whats wrong?
Thank you my guy

Thank you king ❤❤
Found this awesome song today, i'm now listening to it on loop in a christian household.
this is fine.
XD Wow, what a rebel.
...same, my friend.
There is 1 imposter among us
Um how do I keep finding alternative versions of me in this comment section
And yes I’m also in a Christian household
This is the LAST KINDA MUSIC i expected to be the focal point of a C.O.T.L song-
True, but I love rock.
He’s just a little guy!!!
I love how the lamb is included in the singing!!!
Quality over quantity is really proving its worth with videos like these and the people who dedicate the time to bring such amazing content to people around the world, you and many others are legends.
Agreed
They used ai generated art. None of this drawn.
I... I'm speechless. This... This song is so good! How are you getting away with this? WHO'S LETTING YOU GET AWAY WITH THIS???
We will never know
The One Who Waits has commanded him to make this.
Joe is 💀
POP OFF MY FRIEND. I love those guitar fret noises in the riff, awesome job on all of it, and Awesome job to Ash as well!
I love the lambs voice in this
This gives me a nostalgia feeling of back when I listened to a new DA Games song in the early 2010s. 😁
You're right. Now that mention it the song really sound like in DA Games style.
I'M OBESSED WITH THIS SONG. Literally my favorite Cotl song so far, I've listened to this so many times already
Longest
W
Ever
Inventing the sickest Cult of The Lamb song successfully making me want to finally check out the game 🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥
the game is SO good
I think StanleyMOV would love the song
@@LoneStarAtlas hell yeah 🤘
I think I found a new favorite song. Didn't knew that 3 minutes can pass so quickly lol
This is why I love your content.
Epic songs, great covers, clear and easy to understand theory videos, and fun streams.
Keep up the good work, dean
By the way, have you heard BlueBurst's remix of another one of LSE's original songs, Intruder?
In my opinion it's on par with this.
LISTEN NOW ON SPOTIFY open.spotify.com/album/15DETya2lfYjyfYrt9aor3?si=d_4cLyLkSZGiZTD52099lw
God, the more I listen to this awesome song, the more I absolutely adore it. =)
What a masterpiece. Made me definitely want to play Cult of the lamb now
I'd never heard of the game before today, and now I want to play it.
I cannot describe with words how much I love this song and how it characterizes The Lamb and The One Who Waits like. Shakes this song around I love it way too much agduxbdjd-
I shall wait all night for another masterpiece that longestsoloever makes
I can't believe I put off listening to this for 3 whole days! This is awesome!
Went from lamb saying “why should I have to die” to “betray me now and face the wrath of death itself”
wow this randomly just started playing in my playlist, but hell does this hit, and sounds super nostalgic to what I used to listen to.
Wait, I just realized how stupid the 4 bishops were. Narinder is the god of death. The prophecy says Narinder needs the lamb. Did they really think the god of death wouldn't notice if the lamb of prophecy died and was sent to his realm?
The heavy metal voice caught me off guard 😭
This went from Disney musical pop rock to metalcore. This is pretty cool! Captured the vibe of the game I dig it! can't wait to add it to my apple music!
Everything about this is so perfect, I love how you included the lamb in this as well!
everything after 2:38 honestly brings me to tears
I really like this one. It gets stuck in my head, and it has a completely different feel from the other cult of the lamb songs.
Man, I love your work in general, but I just basically got done with the main story when you'd released this. Such a badass song, and such a great telling of the game's story.
"i'm just a little guy, i don't want to die." -Lambert
From Partners in Crime...to Slayer of The Divine...the Lamb continues to climb and climb...with nothing else on his mind.
DUDE OMG
This is legit one of my favorite songs about COTL, and there's a lot of them that I love.
I think this could be the second best one, behind Wool Over Our Eyes by The Stupendium. That masterpiece is just unbeatable.
You got really close tho, so huge props
Still cant get over how much this song slaps
Narinder rambling about how the lamb should surrender
The lamb: *Imma have to stop you right there*
Ok, but why did I get literal chills at the end? That must be how good you are, geez
LETS GO
Every single time you make a new song I find my new favorite.
The chorus is legit catchy, like I can’t stop humming it bro amazing work, found this song recently and I’ve been listening to ur music, consider me a new member of your listeners 🥰
The lyrics really are in a league of their own compared to most game music (even good such), and the melody is a banger. I'm grateful I clicked on this video.
This is so dang epic. I have trouble following lyrical songs normally, but this is just so clear, and energetic.
Cmon guys only 500 likes? This guy put so much effort in one video. Give him some love and like the dang video.
I have listened to this for 5 hours now and still counting
Heck yes!!! Another banger to possibly cover!!!💕💕💕
Felt like the one who waits anticipating this video dropping but it was well worth it!
Dude! This turned out amazing! I’m genuinely blown away, this is easily my new favorite tune from you!
This is so freaking amazing, your original songs just never disappoint!
Happy 1st Anniversary "The One Who Waits" 🐑🚩
ANOTHER BANGER! KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK LSE!!! ❤🔥🔥🔥
Another LSE original, another awesome hit! Love it every time!
I AM THE ONE WHO WAITS
Gottem
i se this on loop my fav song "BETRAY ME NOW AND FACE THE WRATH OF DEATH ITSELFE"
WHY IS THIS ACTUALLY SO GOOD? 😭
This is such a banger! You weren't kidding when you said the breakdown goes hard, 🙏 THE 🐑!
If a song like this was in the game itself, there would be more of a redeeming factor for the fight against The One Who Waits.
Woah!!! That was so good!!! I am blown away every time lol but this is a masterpiece! You made the right choice when you decided to make nerdcore XD
U make it so hard for me to have a personal favourite song all of them are too good
i am not in danger, skyler. I AM THE DANGER.
I AM the one who WAITS.
Your music is criminality underated
you have a very brutal voice, although I understand that it was most likely edited, and it could not have done without special effects, but still you are a cool rock guitarist and singer (with or without editing) 👏👏👏
Goddamn, every time you release a song, you blow expectations out of the water and then some. It's a shame your music isn't known as much as it should be.
I ended up buying the game today because I kept seeing videos about it lately
I’m treating this game like the Sims 4 (play all day and then delete the save file thinking I did something wrong and could do better). On my 2nd save file currently but I’ll probably restart once I get home from work
Brilliant work❤❤❤❤
ABSOLUTELY HEAT!!!! love this so much!
I'm so glad my brother showed me this song 😍 Cotl is one of my top favourite games, and if I hadn't already written a few little fics for it this probably would have inspired me to!
HOLY SHIT I JUST STUMBLED UPON THIS- SO GOOD
This is an absolute masterpiece! I'm in love
Wonderful, beatiful, all of this is beatiful
2:38 Is perfect
I'm still listen this epic song lmao
HOOOLLLLY DAMNN THAT WAS GREAT! God I REALLY need to give this game a shot, I've been hearing a lot of people mention it and it looks right up my alley! Amazing work as usual man!
I can't wait to listen it's on SoundCloud
This was INTENSE and I love it!
Another banger by the goat himself, love ya man can’t wait for more :))
how in the world is this not sitting at 2m views? this is by far the best song i have seen for this game
Love from a Stupendium and Vaush fan!
Dude, This is awesome!
we need a full 8bit version
Such a great original song for the game ❤❤❤
I really really really want you to do more original stuff they always sound amazing even when I don’t know the context 😅
The song is absolutely perfect!!!!
Okay but the Lamb's first line just made me think "Heyyyyy hey hey I'm just a little guy and also it's my birthday I'm a little birthday boy you wouldn't sacrifice me on my birthday would you"
Oh my gosh. Amazing, simply, Amazing
this song be bussin🤤🤤
lamb frees nari..
also nari:HiPiTy HoPiTy YoUr liFE Is NoW mY pRoPeRtY
Had to watch it a second time because I got this song stuck in my head
Lse: I AM THE ONE WHO WAITS!!
This is the moment lse became heisenberg
…
Another banger yet again from Dean!!! ♥♥🍧🍧
this song is awsome even tho i heard for the cult of the lamb for the first time
If there is one cover that comes to my mind that I would love to hear from this man, it would definitely have to be Megalomania from Live A Live (The song that inspired Megalovania).
pretty sure this is the song that got me to play cult of the lamb
Cute that the Lamb sang “bah”…
another w song from longestsoloever, good job once again mate!
