They are the weakest breed, Destined to be extinct, Following their gods' will. Out of the mud arisen, No mouth, no eyes, All numb. (x2) Tepeu, Gucumatz, They cannot move, They cannot talk. Tepeu, Gucumatz, They cannot feel, They cannot see. Tepeu, Gucumatz! Their mind is blank, Their moves are dark. Tepeu, Gucumatz! Their flesh is weak, Their bodies melt.

Never Alive 04:36
The time passed by as they remained briefly awake. The earth was sick, parasites feeding death. The rain had fallen, and so their heads, rotten dwell. As meat they served, feeding hunger, a blank space. Crushed bones, life riots, hand me my soul. Flesh sacrifice in thy name wasn’t enough to save ourselves. How do we see if we are blinded? How do we feel if we are broken? How do we taste with mouths full of blood? How do we die if we never lived? (x2) Enrage, reborn, gods will, we serve. The gods will punish your lifes. The animals will feast on your bones. Your heads will be cut off. Won’t see sun’s light once more.

Xibalba 03:21
Consumed by the greed To their wooden bones All of them humans Lacking of soul Carving the coffin Just with nails Years alone Under the earth All your feathers All your wealth Nothing will remain! Not your eyes Not your teeth Ashes to dust Open his chest And rip his heart out Consume the flesh Of their rotten body Open his head And rip his brain out Consume the thoughts Of his dead body All your wives All your children Noone will remain! Not their screams Not their tears Bodies to graves! Stomping the graveyard Breaking skulls Their nailless fingers Are covered in blood An army of corpses Is trembling blind Rivers of blood Are filling their tombs The endless apathy Leading to numbness Claiming for anomie Ravaging heartless Not made to live Hidden in darkness Don't pray for me We're all dead

Air polluted with the stench of death. We’ve just seen their boats offshore. Words spread fast like a wildfire. War is nigh! We must earn our god’s favor. A sacrifice for our people’s sake. Firstborns first! Hold our ground! Filthy pagans in our land. Peace or war now does not matter. Only one way they will get us. That is passing over our corpses. March my warriors into battle. Crush their skulls, gut their people. We’ve just seen their boats offshore. Words spread fast like a wildfire. War is nigh! We must earn our god’s favor. A sacrifice for our people’s sake. Firstborns first! An offering each day, our bodies soaked in blood! (x2) Our warriors crossed their way, the city they must not reach. Before the blade, bled to death, my men can’t hold their fierce strike. Retreat is not an option now, today we fight until we die. Slaughtered by strangers we’re, upon the city the shadow approaches!

I see no god! Only their hands with our blood. There is no savior! Their heaven’s empty, and hell’s on earth! Turn to dust as the empire falls, Our bodies clog the path. Almost drown in blood Of her father’s corpse; Slaughtered before here eyes, They tore apart her rags. Evangelize her body With the might of Christ! Eternal life thrown Into a pile of putrid flesh! They brought their holy wrath. 1492 the year of the doom! (x2) This is the end! Silent screams heard by none. Forever lost! Mercenaries of the gold! Turn to dust as the empire falls, Our bodies clog the path. Almost drown in blood Of her father’s corpse; Slaughtered before her eyes, They tore apart her rags. Evangelize her body With the might of Christ! I see no god! Only their hands with our blood, There is no savior! Their heaven’s empty And hell’s on earth!

Ruins 04:38
I tried, but as the ceiling collapsed we had to build our town from the ground. Smashed bodies under the ruins, supporting the pillars of our disease. The fucking ghost of what we have been, what we’ll never reach. Last words of an old man preventing disaster, fading to black. Their swords imposing their cross over our gods; women and children taken as trophy, murdered and raped.

Bodies in the field, gods kept me from death, my fate is their word, I shall take our land back. Forgive me for I am death! Burn the christians (x2) to their bones! Burn the christians (x3) to their bones! Cauterize, wounds infected. Sacrifice, senseless life. Slay them, hollow vessels. Light their camps, burning, fleshless. I follow their tracks, hunter and prey. Their camp’s on the beach next to their ships. They’re claiming a win, but (the) jaguar’s in me. Their false god’s not here and ours are with me! Scent of burning flesh! Burn the christians (x2) to their bones! Burn the christians (x3) to their bones! Darkest night guards my mission. Torch in hand, fire on their tents. Screams of pain choked in quietness. Alone I roam, slit their throats. My body fails, I’m badly wounded. I lose my sight as the blade pierces; goes through my chest, steals my last breath!
