Atun Sen Geb - The Illusionist lyrics

[Intro: Excerpt from "The Illusionist"] "From the furthest corners of the world Where the dark arts still hold sway He returns to us to demonstrate how nature's laws may be bent" "It's all a trick; it's an illusion" "Perhaps there's truth in this illusion" [Verse 1] Sullen tones, from the chamber of the skull and bones Swollen wounds after battle; ain't no comin' home Saddle soaked in blood, cloaked in mud; token of respect Widows chokin' up, dying warrior shows no regret Wore the cross of the Maltese, reigned in false peace Promise land America, the shores of far East Argent mastrum, in the sanctum sanctorum Ask us at Damascus, we plan to hold a forum Speak the incantation, black bird in hand spell Word to in burning bush, summon beasts of hell Second coming of Lucifer, prince of the morning Sun Have no use for ya, once to say this mourning has begun Helter skelter hand basket, slam casket, hand latchet Throw choker, react with Bram Stoker black magic Play a flute made of bone, with a cobra in a basket Give the answer to your question, before you ask it [Excerpt from "The Illusionist"] "My guest tonight is not a showman at all But rather a wizard Who has sold his soul to the devil" [Verse 2] I am a mad gust Nuwaupian mad god High priest after, the order of Imhotep Master builder, of the seven step pyramid I've been, in fold matter Reveal the secrets of the philosopher's stone Written in your D-N-A, encoded in your chromosomes Solar biologist, Ka's [?] Talisman within the Earth's canvas I summon, 24 scientist from the Orion star constellation I am a soul, of the incarnated divinity, of an extra-terrestrial being That reincarnated into a mortal form To roam, the Earth as an avatar I descend from a star Formless in form My soul explodes My spirit, crosses the threshold Between the illusion, of light and darkness to spark this [Excerpt from "The Illusionist"] "Where did you come from?" "How have you come to be here tonight?" "What can you tell us about the other side?" "What's it like?" "Yes, tell us" "You must know things, secret things!" [Verse 3] Scrolls sittin' in corner stones E-T, phone home Without [???] The master's wealth Wizard of things walk by British wine [??] four square [???] Climb 15 steps, the middle chambers unravel the riddle Kindle seven lights for seven spirits Control the dice and stop Christ With all the lies [????] Men swingin' a sword, penned with supreme over-standing Trace illusions, a non-confusion Straight to the gut, unfolds the door of souls Cleanse the pathway to a mentor Before we enter the golden caskets Actual [??] [???] is peripheral, in heavy shades of black [Excerpt from "The Illusionist"] "Thank you all for coming, but I think there's been a serious misunderstanding I want you all to know, that everything that you have seen is an illusion It's a trick, it's not real" [Verse 4] Black mirror reflect, cut the deck of the Tarot Boil bone marrow Hit you in the chest with arrows, that's flaming Whatever you call it, I'm re-naming For those that know they're different, refuse to stay the same, and Change or re-arrange People are strangers when you're strange Write my poems in the city, but my home is on the range Where the wild things roam Stone the wild man's effigy Satanic missionaries, defile them standing next to me Ram's horn, Cornucopia, halls of Baphomet Acting like you full, you ain't even had it yet The first course of the feast From the belly of the beast Where you get regurgitated if you swallow a piece Chokin' on the wishbone We in the zone, send the kids home Stare with the eyes of a gorgon and turn flesh-stone Rest come, for the truth upon the surface of the world Answers bit and swirled, into the internet hurled [Outro: Excerpt from "The Illusionist"] "I thought we might end this evening with a discussion of the soul All of the greatest religions speak of the soul's endurance before the end of life So what then does it mean, to die? I need a volunteer from the audience.."
