Aggressor
Epic Awakening: Vredehammer's Aggressor Unveils a Dormant Emperor
Lyrics
His gaze set toward the skies
Focused upward, his attention directed towards the sky
a shadow of forgotten tales
A faint memory or remnants of forgotten stories
The ice of ages had enchained him, kept away
He was trapped by the enduring cold of many ages, kept isolated
A thousand winters buried deep benath the ground
Countless winters passed, buried deep beneath the earth
not yet released from fate, a promise held him trapped in dorment state.
Not freed from destiny yet, bound by a pledge in a dormant state
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
Descriptive titles given to him: aggressor, oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of the stone
Additional titles emphasizing dominance and control
Arise, lightning pierces
Rising forcefully, lightning strikes, inflicting pain from above
flesh from high above
Physical harm caused by the lightning
Again the sleeper awakens, a giant dwells below.
Reawakening of a powerful entity, a colossal being residing beneath
A different world another time before his eyes
Perception of a different era or reality in his sight
A weak, decrepit place, beset in foul decay
View of a weak and deteriorated place, plagued by decay
Dark priests now called him, they chanted words
Religious figures now acknowledge him, invoking ancient powers
of ancient powers: BEGIN
Commencement of a ritual or invocation
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
Reiteration of descriptive titles portraying dominance
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of..
Continuation of titles emphasizing control and domination
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, hail superior
Further titles extolling his superiority and power
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, wielder of the thunderous skies
Emphasizing dominance through control of powerful forces
As the stories once foretold,
Reference to prophesied events
When the hooded priests are gathered.
When the religious leaders assemble
Underneath the moonlit sky,
Beneath the moon's illumination
By the dancing firelight
Gathering around a fire's flickering light
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
Repetition of descriptive titles, reinforcing dominance
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of..
Continued emphasis on control and torment
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, hail superior
Reiteration of titles glorifying his dominance and superiority
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of the stone.
Emphasizing control, domination, and association with stone, possibly indicating unyielding strength
