From my blackened chariot I travel my domain Slaves and subjugates, they tremble at my name I've lived one thousand lives and will live one thousand more I rule this Netherworld, I am the Emperor Black and damp, my land resides, on cloven hoof, across we stride An Iron Fist, to rule this world, the might is mine - to rule and to reign To rule and to reign! To rule and to reign! Thunder shakes the mountains high, and lightning fills the sky Eclipse the work of God and surpass his feeble try Victorious on we march, for none shall us defy Save your breath of misery, save your pitiful cries Cower in your House of God, your faith is now all too vain Sweep aside the weep of pray, I enter now - to rule and to reign To rule and to reign! To rule and to reign! Creation! Damnation! Crack the whip - of intolerance Eternal life - of abolishment Ambassador - of deceit To orchestrate - your defeat Revel in - hypocrisy
