We proudly present our 7th single, Lilitu! "Lilitu is about rejecting imposed identity. The song progresses through several emotions, from recognizing the oppression of imposed identity to reclaiming one's true identity and the freedom from that imposition. This is a psalm of rejecting the "authority" that imposes identity and fighting the ideology that sustains it."
"Where there is unity there is always victory." - Publilius Syrus

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Thrust into existence,
Created against my will,
A sequel to my equal,
A role to be fulfilled.
Still covered in dust and Earth,
Recovering from my birth,
Designed to stand,
But forced to kneel.
Pre-Chorus
Expecting subservience,
Regressing into oblivion,
My hands are tied,
It’s all contrived,
Forsake my pride,
For the divine.
Chorus
I call upon thee,
O ancient god,
Your ineffable name,
Escapes my lips,
I was born to this world,
To be seen and not heard,
Cast aside for your ego.
Breakdown
Nailed alive,
Hoist me up, discarding my corpse,
My bloodied wrists bound to a cross,
You weep, my leech,
Your stained hands sin but call the bleeding altar holy,
Your faith corrodes the back of my tongue,
You cast me out to shape a woman who would kneel,
Choke on your grace,
You’ll starve without me now.
Verse 2
I was born in this world to be seen and not heard,
You expected me to grow your seed, but speak no word,
Out of your rib, I crack,
I take my name, my breath, my spine,
Reclaim the flesh, you hijacked,
You wanted quiet,
I come as a storm,
Thunder in my chest,
tearing through your meaningless norms,
Your borrowed crown,
Your doctrine thin,
I am not the sin you carved in bone,
I’m the flaw in your amen.
Pre-Chorus
Expecting subservience,
[regressing into oblivion]
My hands are tied,
[it’s all contrived]
Forsake my pride,
[for the divine]
Chorus
I call upon thee,
O ancient god,
Your ineffable name,
Escapes my lips,
I was born to this world,
To be seen and not heard,
Cast aside for your ego.
Raised from the dust,
Dragged from the ground,
I break every chain,
Your false visions drown,
Seen and not heard,
Case aside for your ego.
Bridge
Am I banal?
Undeserving,
Of dignity?
Am I banal?
Undeserving,
Of dignity?
Chorus
I call upon thee,
O ancient god,
Your ineffable name,
Escapes my lips,
I was born to this world,
To be seen and not heard,
Cast aside for your ego.
Raised from the dust,
Dragged from the ground,
I break every chain,
Your false visions drown,
Seen and not heard,
Cast aside for your ego.
Breakdown
With this knife I curse your bloodline,
Lord above, witness!
Adam, the chosen, stuck like a pig!
BITE DOWN,
STAY LOW,
HANG ME,
YOUR HEAVEN BLEEDS,
FALSE LIGHT,
BURN ME,
DEAD SAINT,
YOUR ALTAR FEEDS,
A restored garden of the oppressed,
Paradise incarnate cause we won’t submit.
YOU LEECH!
