“Raptors of Anzu” reaches back to primordial time, before mankind, when fate was already inscribed across dimensions. Drawing from Mesopotamian myth, Anzu is invoked as storm, rebellion, and retribution — a force that disrupts imposed order.

Lyrics:
In the time of the Ancient Ones
The sea was the land
All suns were blocked
Sons set forth
Eridu stood tall
Place of the Lugals
Kingship for millennia
Enslave the lost
RISE
GRIN
RELEASE
FALL
DESTRUCTION
SIN
BURNS WITH RAGE
RISE
GRIN
RELEASE
FALL
DESTRUCTION
SIN
BURNS WITH RAGE
Storms set by the sage
Anu, the Lugal
Storms set by the sage
Anu, the Lugal
Raptors of Anzu
They're claiming fate
This feeble task, hopeless, in vain
RISE
GRIN
RELEASE
FALL
DESTRUCTION
SIN
BURNS WITH RAGE
RISE
GRIN
RELEASE
FALL
DESTRUCTION
SIN
BURNS WITH RAGE
Where all shall be
Mechanisms of the soul
Death fades as time descends
Not a dream, Anunnian Tale
As giants we set forth
Destinies unfold
Halls of knowledge open
Unveil the stars
Walls of logic crumble
Newfound law
Reflecting darkness
Order is restored
