Fall from Grace
Descent into Darkness: Unveiling the Profound Meaning of Morbid Angel's 'Fall from Grace'
Lyrics
Hot wind burns me
Experiencing the intense sensation of a hot wind.
Burning as I fall
Undergoing a burning sensation while descending or deteriorating.
Cast away
Being discarded or thrown away.
Speechless in the holy way
Unable to speak in a sacred or divine manner.
I survive
Surviving despite facing punishment and exile.
The scourge and banishing
Enduring punishment and being banished.
To scorching land
Arriving in a scorching or burning land.
I am Lord, I take command
Asserting dominance and control as a lord.
(Fall from grace)
Expressing a fall from grace.
Forgive me not
Pleading for forgiveness.
This knowledge makes me strong
Stating that the acquired knowledge strengthens the speaker.
To resurrect
Having the power to revive or bring back.
The cities of the damned
Rebuilding or restoring the cities condemned or damned.
All the treasure of Sodom
Claiming ownership of the wealth of Sodom.
Now belong to me, celebrate
Celebrating the possession of the treasures.
Fallen angels take my hand
Fallen angels joining and supporting the speaker.
(Fall from grace)
Reiterating the theme of a fall from grace.
Whores long for my flesh
Prostitutes desiring the speaker's physical presence.
And my desire
The speaker's intense craving or longing.
Lust anointing me now
Lust empowering or consecrating the speaker.
Consume my soul
The soul being consumed by desires.
(I ride the flesh and the sinners of hell)
Riding the flesh and sinners of hell, possibly indicating domination over sinful elements.
(I am Belial)
Identifying as Belial, a demon associated with wickedness.
(I bend knee not before my selfish desire)
Refusing to submit to selfish desires.
