lyrics
(Music: Charles Elliott/Scott Fuller)
My lust for power is my life
I align myself with those in darkness
I do refuse to see yet no I am not blind
Now I must endure this on my own
Ambitious and cold
Now die alone
I leave the ones I loved behind
Following my wanton heart of darkness
My selfish needs they change constantly with time
And now my dreams have turned to stone
Ambitious and cold
Now die alone
My disease - mortality
Long to live in memories
Selfish needs will bring no peace
Admit fault to admit defeat
Chorus:
My sins are atoned
In rapture renowned
My sins are atoned
I see the world through narrow eyes
You all were fashioned in my likeness
Am I not God and has my kingdom come?
No, I must endure this on my own
Exalt me and praise my likeness
Sickening being your time will come
Cut from me this rib of darkness
Set me free to carry on
(Chorus)
My lust for power is my life
I align myself with those in darkness
I do refuse to see yet no I am not blind
Now I must endure this on my own
Ambitious and cold
Now die alone
I leave the ones I loved behind
Following my wanton heart of darkness
My selfish needs they change constantly with time
And now my dreams have turned to stone
Ambitious and cold
Now die alone
My disease - mortality
Long to live in memories
Selfish needs will bring no peace
Admit fault to admit defeat
Chorus:
My sins are atoned
In rapture renowned
My sins are atoned
I see the world through narrow eyes
You all were fashioned in my likeness
Am I not God and has my kingdom come?
No, I must endure this on my own
Exalt me and praise my likeness
Sickening being your time will come
Cut from me this rib of darkness
Set me free to carry on
(Chorus)

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulceratesupported by 22 fans who also own “Rapture Renowned”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

Hidden History of the Human Race
by Blood Incantationsupported by 22 fans who also own “Rapture Renowned”
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too.
