Mictlantecuhtli - Path to Eternal Glory lyrics
Artist: Mictlantecuhtli
album: As Eagles Descend
Spear up, head up high, into battle I finally ride
To live in shame and fear, I rather fight and die
I was betrayed by the gods above I once praised with blood
Now I shall die proud, with my shield held up high
My heart is pounding faster, blood gushing, no turning back
My soul burns with anger, as my mind is going blank
Embracing death, my life's a sacrifice, I welcome death
I pray to Mictlantecuhtli for my life to end this way
Scream across the lands, fight to appease the gods
Banners flying high, reaching the eternal sky
Fighting at full charge, I see my enemy
A mirrored image of myself, I confront my destiny
I throw my spear, like thunder that falls from a blackened sky
Screaming as I swing this feathered club, made of obsidian stone
A haunting breeze blows through blood-soaked plains
Roaring like a jaguar, devouring its prey, I shall fight 'til the very last breath
A sacred shield to defend my life, against the serpent's horde
Arrows clashing against my will, I shall battle on,
Death is the road to eternal glory
Cutting through the flesh of my enemy, wrath of the gods falls upon me
As I lose my breath, I gasp for air, my sacrifice is now complete
Arrows flying, broken spears
Shields are crashing, bodies dead and dying
Two warriors clashing, in pools of blood and mud
Ome Acatl you are victorious
Bleeding, meet my demise,
Screaming, I fulfill my destiny
Roaring like a jaguar, devouring its prey
I shall fight till the very last breath
A sacred shield to defend my life, against the serpent's horde
Arrows clashing against my will, I shall battle on
Warriors screaming, feel the blood of my forefathers in my soul
Ancient hymns of valor and strength
Glorious chants shall be sung by my grave
The wrath of the gods falls upon me
Death is the road to eternal glory
Spear through my flesh, life in my veins, my father's call my name
Standing guard, a xolotl be my guide, towards the road to immortality
Fly across an open sky, serpent, wings widespread,
A sign from the gods that I will fly again
Spear up, head up high, into battle I finally ride
To live in shame and fear, I rather fight and die
I was betrayed by the gods above I once praised with blood
Now I shall die proud, with my shield held up high
Scream across the lands, fight to appease the gods
Banners flying high, reaching the eternal sky
To live in shame and fear, I rather fight and die
I was betrayed by the gods above I once praised with blood
Now I shall die proud, with my shield held up high
My heart is pounding faster, blood gushing, no turning back
My soul burns with anger, as my mind is going blank
Embracing death, my life's a sacrifice, I welcome death
I pray to Mictlantecuhtli for my life to end this way
Scream across the lands, fight to appease the gods
Banners flying high, reaching the eternal sky
Fighting at full charge, I see my enemy
A mirrored image of myself, I confront my destiny
I throw my spear, like thunder that falls from a blackened sky
Screaming as I swing this feathered club, made of obsidian stone
A haunting breeze blows through blood-soaked plains
Roaring like a jaguar, devouring its prey, I shall fight 'til the very last breath
A sacred shield to defend my life, against the serpent's horde
Arrows clashing against my will, I shall battle on,
Death is the road to eternal glory
Cutting through the flesh of my enemy, wrath of the gods falls upon me
As I lose my breath, I gasp for air, my sacrifice is now complete
Arrows flying, broken spears
Shields are crashing, bodies dead and dying
Two warriors clashing, in pools of blood and mud
Ome Acatl you are victorious
Bleeding, meet my demise,
Screaming, I fulfill my destiny
Roaring like a jaguar, devouring its prey
I shall fight till the very last breath
A sacred shield to defend my life, against the serpent's horde
Arrows clashing against my will, I shall battle on
Warriors screaming, feel the blood of my forefathers in my soul
Ancient hymns of valor and strength
Glorious chants shall be sung by my grave
The wrath of the gods falls upon me

To live in shame and fear, I rather fight and die
I was betrayed by the gods above I once praised with blood
Now I shall die proud, with my shield held up high
Scream across the lands, fight to appease the gods
Banners flying high, reaching the eternal sky
