The Rotten King
Unveiling the Tyranny: "The Rotten King" Song Meaning Exposed
Lyrics
The death of mankind is slowly approaching
The destruction of humanity is imminent and drawing near.
The blind believers lead the mass
People who blindly believe in something lead the masses.
Our ignorance will be our demise
Our lack of knowledge and awareness will lead to our downfall.
Bow to me
A demand for submission and homage.
I am the reason for your misery
The speaker claims responsibility for causing suffering.
Infecting the weak and spreading religious hypocrisy
Exploiting the vulnerable and spreading fake religious beliefs.
I am the false creator
The speaker falsely presents themselves as a creator.
But my minions still follow my way
Despite being false, followers still adhere to the speaker's ways.
The blind lead the blind hiding filth in disguise
Those without insight lead others, concealing their true nature.
The rotten king will rise
A prediction that a corrupt and decayed ruler will emerge.
You can't run
An assertion that escape is impossible.
Your time has come to serve the rotten king
A declaration that it's time to serve the corrupt ruler.
You can't talk
An inability to speak, possibly due to enforced silence.
Your mouth sewn from the inside out
A graphic description of a mouth being sewn shut from within.
He cleaves a new path right in front of our eyes
The corrupt ruler creates a new destructive path in plain view.
As a result of religious superstition forged on lies
This path results from religious superstitions built on lies.
This is the last and only call to repent
A final call for repentance before impending doom.
The spineless mindless will follow with ill intent
Those lacking courage and intelligence will follow with harmful intent.
Hell has it's plan of evil
Hell has its evil plan in motion.
We will all be burned
A prediction of collective punishment through burning.
If we have not chosen to bow down and call him god
Refusal to acknowledge the ruler as a god leads to punishment.
I am the reason for your misery
Reiteration of being the cause of suffering and spreading false beliefs.
Infecting the weak and spreading religious hypocrisy
Continued exploitation of the vulnerable and spreading religious falsehoods.
I am the false creator
Repeating the claim of being a false creator with followers.
But my minions still follow my way
Despite falsehood, followers continue to adhere to the speaker's ways.
The blind lead the blind hiding filth in disguise
Blind leaders deceive others, hiding their true corrupt nature.
No one will be left alive
An ominous statement that no one will survive.
The rotten king will rise
A repetition of the prophecy that the corrupt ruler will emerge.
King of torment, your pain and all your suffering
The ruler is described as the king of torment, ending the era of lies.
Will no longer be based on a book of lies
There will be no more suffering based on false religious doctrines.
The foundation of your belief
The foundation of belief will collapse in the presence of the corrupt ruler.
Will crumble at my feet
This foundation will crumble at the speaker's feet.
