Upon arrival of the waking hour
The only sound the ringing in my ears
In the dark devoid of power
Through the black an alien planet draws near
Powerless awaiting descent
Incapable of physical motion
Suspended in the eternal present
Upon the waves of an infinite black abyss
I am sifted through the cracks
Within the fabric of reality
My consciousness reacts
To a new awakening
From beautiful chaos to deafening silence
And tortured sound of labored breathing
Descending faster and faster to the surface
Then all at once time and space stop moving
Blinding light
Shatters the darkness
Through the night
A voice emerges
I am the ancient of ancients
The beginning and end
The world below you has been corrupted
Not from without but from within
It was for this purpose you were chosen
Only you can end the curse now
Sacrifice your body for the broken
Your essence must be poured out
Like a bullet from a gun
Space and time
Come rushing back into focus
Tearing through the heavens
With fervent heat
Then finally crashing down into the ocean #BecomingTheArchetype #ChildrenOfTheGreatExtinction

It's still early but this is my favorite song on the album

[@ultvbruhxdddd]

Same. Reminds me about dichotomy somehow

[@musicgamingbuff]

I also get strong Dichotomy and Physics of Fire vibes from this album. BTA slayed on these tracks!

[@jasonhite5512]

This song is by far the best representation of BTA, so sick, never heard Seth get so bluesy like this, but the way he spins some of those blues riffs down into a brutal breakdown is magical.

[@jacobridings6876]

can we talk about how sick this intro is?! perfect lead in from the interlude right before it on the album😊

[@michaelnussbaum6635]

Beginning of this song gives me some Homeworld vibes!

[@elipepin4220]

Phenomenal work and sound.

[@diyoothubru9384]

Wow🔥🔥

[@BrandomStuff]

This is really awesome ya'll. Keep it up. ❤

[@jakobfel2]

One of my favorite songs on the album! This entire album, but especially this song, should put to rest all the claims that BTA isn't death metal lol

[@maasgatemusic]

Best Album since Terminate Damnation♥️

People need to hear the name Jesus. It’s Jesus that was sacrificed for a fallen world. Toughen up men and preach it as hard as you hit it.
